Just thought I would start a thread for serial number 027 of the 1964 thiokol imp .
It all started with how do we get into our cabin in the back country ? Being able to tow on the highway and behind an SUV came first .
The Thiokol 1402 IMP is small enough to tow behind a light duty SUV on a trailer with electric trailer brakes . It also is big enough to haul all our cabin stuff in and out with out stress . After adding some seats for four more people which are removeable it met the requirements for bringing in our guests.
Because the pervios owner had already givin it a paint job we can cross that off our list ~//~. Being that its in good running shape adjusting the brake bands and a tune up got us by for the first season .
Season two we are removing the master cylinders because one leaks . Do them both to get it over with . Easy to find at Car Quest at a huge savings .
Looking forward to playing and trailering into other areas with my neighbor ( who just bought a Tucker 343A 1965 will make the season even more fun ~ ~ ~ ! !
Starting with a Track party Feb 24th - 26th 2012 on forest service road 6710 in Washington State .
A snow cats best friend ! A tool box , winch ,comalong , shovel , radio/ cell phone , botttle of Crown Royal and snacks what more in life could one ask for ?
The party begins !
