    Haha, they all end up getting hijacked anyway if they don't die off. I don't feel too guilty as I already said my howdies to Patrick earlier. :p

    Alpine,
    Good luck with your 66 wagon. If you need any info on parts or where to locate hard to find parts, I can help.

    I am impressed that you lifted the roof! That's got to be a serious job.
    Keep the pictures coming.
    Dr B

    Alpine,
    If you need reference photos to help with your restoration, here are a few links to some good pictures of a 66 Country Sedan. There are a lot of detail pictures. I would recommend that you save the pictures, since the car was sold and they may eventually remove them:

    http://www.leftcoastclassics.com/1966-ford-station-wagon/
    http://www.leftcoastclassics.com/1966-ford-station-wagon/extras/bodygallery/
    http://www.leftcoastclassics.com/1966-ford-station-wagon/extras/closeupgallery/

    Also like others have said, if you need help with anything, we will try as best as we can. There are a number of 1965-1967 Ford owners here, so you should be able to get a lot of help.
