I was in this very garage last weekend and got to see this bitchin' '66 along with his beautiful '65. The natural patina of the exterior of this car is so cool and that only a true survivor can wear. Then you open the door and take a whiff of that beautiful Red Morrokide upholstery, what a great smell it has and that which I've only experienced with these era Pontiac interiors. And of course under the hood is something that you'll rarely, if ever see again... an original and fully operational vacuum operated tri-power 389.

And for an added treat, I also got to see the old parking lot in Livermore where this very car was sold new from.

These are the types of cars that get the attention at the cruise nights over the restored cars.

Grant,

It was great to have you over after all these years and discuss Survivor cars and parts from the “60’s”.

A keen eye like yours scrutinizing my “Stuff” is welcome.

Chris.
