In early March 2006, I was contacted by Collectible Automobile magazine. They were interested in photographing my car for an upcoming issue covering 1974 through 1978 New Yorkers, Imperials, and Newports. Of course I said yes. My brother came down from Columbus, Ohio to help me get the car ready for the photo shoot. Of course, the weather was freezing that weekend. At least it didn't rain.

We ran out of time and half-assed the engine. I'll get that fixed later.

The finished product. The 30 year old original paint job has held up very well.
