    The bigger the garage the more room you have for cars- bad idea, this is a airplane hanger because my garage is full of chevelles :banghead3: and landcruisers in the drive way. This is the first ford I've ever bought and it will prolly end up with LS motor before they toss six feet of dirt in me.

    The ol lady has no clue about the wagon. I plan on telling her it's hers to smooth things over then convert to Muslim and not allow her to drive.:D

    Hit it with the pressure washer today, bought a carb, plugs,wires and starter. If I have time I'm going to try and crank it over tomorrow.

    I will take a picture of the dataplate on my '66 CS and send it to you in PM. Been restoring it for the past 5 years. Here is a pic.

    Awesome! Thanks. This will help build the database of 66 Fords. There are currently 5583 cars registered.

    I put my 7Litre on the old 66 registries years ago but haven't seen much since I don't do FB.

    I already vinyl wrapped my 64 trim. I was thinking about doing something crazy in the middle like engine turned stainless or a seattle city skyline. I just can't seem to find the sack to pull the trigger on something.
