It's in DE now.
So Genom, EMPIImp69, shanefrank, and flat4Imp had it before me. Wow!
I got a hood and side pods from Paul Moran. On Saturday, I'm getting a hardtop from realbluefoot and an engine cover from kustoms. |

Yes it does. Not sure but it looks like one I sold years ago.
Hi, James we haven't seen you in a while.

Wow I never thought I'd see it again..I bought it originally from Jim (realbluefoot) just for the hood b/c mine was missing. I remember that body being in decent shape. Glad you are able to ressurect it. What are your plans for it?

Hopefully get all the Super Sport parts, paint it bright orange metallic, and get it to turn heads (not stomachs).
No timeline set until I find a new job...

Ran up to Hicksville, NY and got some Imp parts. A hardtop and engine cover. Both were originally on Robert Conner's Cookie Monster (#2022). Kustoms bought the Imp but never used the hardtop. He prepped the engine cover but never got to install it due to the car accident. Too bad, it looks really sharp.
The felt is still there. Not in the best shape, but there.
Do any of you guys have a picture of the lion on the hood? Tom told me it was really kooky. I'd like to check it out. |

You beat me to the top by a day. Congratulations. Hope you enjoy it. I would have purchased it if you didnt although I was skeptical I could fit into mine with a hard top at 6'4''.Regards
