Looks great, but no bumpers.

Looks like the lower right quarter panel has had some poor restructuring. The left looks ok. I would examine that before laying down money. Also, I hope he still has the bumpers, they aren't very easy or cheap to source.

Looks like the lower right quarter panel has had some poor restructuring. The left looks ok. I would examine that before laying down money. Also, I hope he still has the bumpers, they aren't very easy or cheap to source.

I wonder if the rear bumper still fits / lines up with that quarter like that? It might be a reason why it's left off?
The front fender also looks like it's smoothed into the rocker.

I have an Imperial that was heavily sculpted in Bondo by the previous owner. I knew about it before buying it and paid accordingly.
It looks fine until you notice how panels fit together.
The quarter panels and dogleg areas on mine are so screwed up that I have to unbolt the shocks to take off the rear tires.

You might be right about that as the rear quarter curves in towards the bottom and they look straight up and down and that exhaust pod is 1/4 inch off the quarter , so it probably wont fit ! Well picked up !
