1965 Imperial Before Green Hornet (Black Beauty) Rebuild? *see description, need help*

[allthingschrysler]

that would be nice if the movie idiots kept the car i bet you it was one of the ones that was exploded apparently. thats a shame when get older with some more money id like to own a crown sedan or lebaron sedan. its scrwed up that the movie idiots think nothing of how rare the car is. so many wasted just for one movie. mopar or no car! P.S. its like the movie christine all over again!

[crispiegee1]

What a tragic end to a beautiful classic. I hate how Hollywood movies destroy dozens of great old cars just to make a single movie. :-(

[CrazyAlvis]

If it went to be used in the movie it is scrap by now. "Pretty car." Yeah well it's trash now.

Also, Mythbusters trashed a few more for good measure in their "Green Hornet" special. UGH!

If that isn't bad enough, the demo derby guys will finish off the last of these cars. BASATRDS!!

It's sad how people can ruin the history of these beautiful pieces of artwork.

@ Barmtrail: this car already sold, it's possible i sold it for the movie. (see description). The plate cover wasn't from a dealer, it says, "official car of the mafia". But it's probably as old as the car. :)

[sugarcube711]

@Liloldcricketbug why did you sell it,why not keep and restore her and take her to shows and be proud owner??????????????????

[Liloldcricketbug]

@sugarcube711 Had to. Needed the money to buy a project car for college. I really don't regret it. I love my new Barracuda! I did love this car, but I like cars that you can play with, this baby was the "Don't touch" car. I figured it would be in better hands with someone who was more mature with their cars.

[barmtrail]

This car just went way up in value because of the green hornet movie. Where did you find this car? Family?

Is that a california plate i see on the back? Looks like it still has the dealer frame. WOW!!

[coolstuf12345]

never get rid of this car when this car hits 50 a magical thing happends it happends when every car hits 50 the price doubles but even then dont get rid of it i own a carlot and have one this girl ownd it she needed the money so she sold it to me but she cryed whebn she had to get rid of it cuz this car won so many trophies that it killed her to get rid of it and i promised her i would sell it to someone who will take care if it but moset people wanted for a demo derby but i told them no

[machone7I]

@gmwrecker its in too good shape to wreck. 

[Sarcasticscum]

There were only 514 of these exact model made!! Your is in VERY good condition. Just needs a little touching and chrome. I've seen fully restored ones go to a 6-figure price with ease.

[MrSancho219]

where can u look up how man they made?? cause i have the exact car

[Sarcasticscum]

Well, actually I made a mistake. :/ There were only 500 convertibles made.. Sorry! :D

[Kpoull]

God that makes me miss my old 65 Imperial!

Wish I could have afforded to restore that beast.

[fordomatic]

I have almost the same car ! Mine is faded silver like yours but mine has a red leather interior w/ front bench. I picked mine up for $1200 not running. It's running now but not quite mobile. This is my ( I think ) 15th car and about 10 of those were classics. I hope you keep this car since it was your grandfathers. send me a message if you need tech help !

[mhofkp]

don't trust NADA quotes

[Liloldcricketbug]

Oh I know. I just used it as a guideline. That's why I listed the car well under that. As an example of their mistakes, NADA says the MSRP was $5709. According to the car, it was $8000.00 new in 1965.

[mhofkp]

yeah...i have no idea where NADA gets its numbers. as a mopar collector myself, and having seen your CL ad, the price you have is just about right.

[vatocr8zy]

i have the exact same car...if u look at my vid thers a quick pic of it :D there solid cars ilove ours

[Liloldcricketbug]

I don't think I have ever seen one in real life. White leather...sigh* sounds sweet. :)

[vatocr8zy]

how much did u sel it for???????????

[Liloldcricketbug]

Funny thing. I didn't sell it. I started the bids at almost nothing $2800? and it still didn't go anywhere, so I'm kept it. I really do love it.
