    Thanks for the welcome Rev, I'am a chevy guy but like some fords as well, 67-68 comes to mind. I remember back in 69 we had a 67 9pass impala wgn with a 327 loaded with 10 kids and pulling i'am thinkin a 25ft trailer to canada on a fishin trip. I remember that 327 workin pretty hard for about 6hrs that day.I remember my dad sayin that day that 327 dosen't get very good gas mileage.:D Bill

    Hey Bill! Love your '66! It's so clean and original, I just had to make the pics bigger! :2_thumbs_up_-_anima Factory A/C and a big block! :clap: Nice wheels, too! :yup:

    I like the split rear seat. I didn't know they did that for anything other than a 8 or 9-passenger wagon, very cool! :yup:

    And your undercarriage is incredibly clean! :2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    I am so glad that this wonderful wagon is in the hands of someone that loves and appreciates it!

    :Welcome:Bill!

    David :)

    Thanks for the compliments, I was lucky to get my hands on this car, the body is as clean as it looks. Theres not one bubble in the paint and it was repainted 25 years ago. I just changed the original carpet and the floor pans are like new,everytime i work on this car it just makes me :). I found out that the split rear seat was a option in the 6 or 9 pass and only available in the fawn color interior and only 839 fullsize wagons had the option out of i think 155,000 wagons built.
