Hi, everyone.

My grand-father bought this new in 1967 in Orange County off the showroom.
He put a few 100,000 miles on it before the motor seized.
At the time he could not afford to restore it so it sat.
I have gone at it a few times over the past 20 years or so and finally I have decided to get it back on the Road.

He passed a few years back and this is the one thing he left that he was most proud of.

It is pretty rough, but in great condition for sitting for almost 30 years.

Thanks for the help I have already gotten, and the help I am sure I will continue to get.

Cheers!

Nice! I had a ‘67 about 35 years ago, the interior was just classy. Better fit and finish than the later cars and the dash lights are the best.

From that distance it looks very good.

It has sat covered the entire time, had some rats that caused the floor boards to rot through a little.
Hopefully all new carpet and seats and plastic polish, some buff and wax and the mechanical gone through it will be fine
 
Welcome from Alabama, glad you have decided to get it up and going. You mentioned rats, look at your wiring carefully.

Engine bay is fine. But I haven't gotten I to the dash yet.

Hopefully they weren't that hungry
