Beautiful 1982 Chrysler Imperial For Sale
Many thanks for stopping by, but I believe it is sold. Closing the transaction soon. Happy that an enthusiast purchased it. Due to downsizing, I no longer have a garage space to store my 1982 Imperial. Currently it is being stored under a carport with a car cover on it. It’s started and driven regularly to ensure it runs smoothly. Simply stated, the car deserves a better existence and more frequent use. It is a definite head turner and a well-preserved survivor given the history of the 81-83 Imperial line. This car was converted to carburetor by one of the previous two owners, but I do not believe it was a…

Chronicling Cars
After some wine consumption with my sister, we decided to chronicle all the cars we’ve owned. We were both surprised at the number of cars we’ve owned and the vast range in vehicle type.

Admittedly, the dealership left me less than happy with my last one, but we had a heart to heart and I came back to GM/Cadillac. SaveSave SaveSave

2015 F1 Washout. Mud and Mechanics.
Turn off traction control and slip on your rubber boots because you’ll need some tenacity to traverse the COTA parking lots and grounds. It was a mess! Pacific hurricanes rarely effect Texas weather, but this year is the exception. Torrential rain is forecast for Saturday and if Friday was any indicator, the crowd might need to bring a life boat. The parking lots are all but marshlands and bayous. The mud is like quicksand for ties. My poor little ATS almost had to be rescued, but some quick thinking got it out of the mud and back on the side-road. So after braving the elements and arriving at our SkyBox, we walked into…

Navdy! Suddenly, I Must Own One
I think this is pretty cool because I am one of those people who likes information but feels guilty about distracted driving.
