I was emailed about this '67 thru an individual I had met approx 2 yrs ago. He contacted me first prior to putting this out, although it was listed on craigslist very briefly. It is a '67 Deluxe w/ pop-outs and a sunroof. It is a very early '67 according to to the VIN. Pretty cool. I had pulled it out of the woods in Kennard and it is now stored on our property till I can make room for it here, which should be in two to three weeks. Here are some pics for now...

A complete stocker. Gonna take a while to get it right. It needs (possibly) both pans replaced. Heater channels are good and solid. The engine is a dual port out of the original H-block, but it will go back to all original.

It might get a set of 5 spoke rims and dropped spindles though... maybe...
