Hello everyone,

I am thinking about buying a '66. What should I be examining closely in particular to this car?

Thanks, John

I wrote an extensive article in Pagoda World (Issue 4) about this very thing.  Click on Douglas' name in the previous post and send him an e-mail.  If we have extras the you can buy one from him.
