On Saturday July 15th, a contingent of Online Imperial Club members gathered at Wadsworth.  They are:  (back row, l-r) ???, Eileen and Roger Cooper, Ross Klein (Wadsworth's dad), Mike Pisaro, Carl Geffken, and Jim Rado; (front row, l-r) Janice Klein, ???, and Greg Acker.  (Those of you represented with ???, if you'll just e-mail me I'll fix it!).

Spotted in the car corral was this  rarely seen '60 Dodge Polara hardtop coupe.  It was a bit on the scruffy side, but -- oh, those FINS!

The car corral also yielded this very sharp '59 DeSoto Firedome sedan.  I can't remember the last time I saw one of these!

Unusual in a solid color, this all white '57 Chrysler Saratoga was for sale at $12,995.  It was a totally original, rust-free car, with a beautiful green interior.

This beautiful mauve '59 Imperial sedan really caught my eye.  I always liked the styling of the '57 through '59 Imperials.

Languishing forlornly in the flea market, was this rather sad looking '56 Imperial sedan -- it was the only other '56 Imperial at the show besides Wadsworth!  With hardly any usable parts, and a rotted out frame, I thought the asking price of $3,800 (that's NOT a misprint) was a bit unrealistic!

Driven from Columbus, OH, this '55 Chrysler Windsor Nassau sported wire wheels, and a breathtaking restoration.  The Nassau was the low line '55 hardtop.

Back in the car corral again, I spied this completely original, 28,000 mile '51 New Yorker sedan.  The interior was pristine, and the car was equipped with power steering -- an industry first.

Spectacular describes this sparkling '60 Fury 4 door hardtop.  It's a 25,000 mile original car, and a rare sight indeed!
