Picked this up last week from Skeelo222003. Which I'll go ahead and thank publicly for holding it for me few days until I could make it down to TX to pickup.

What an incredible Arcadian Blue time capsule. I picked up a set of original hubs from thegreatjustino a while back, I'll put those on, send the large mirrors back to skeelo222002, put an oil bath filter back on it and leave the rest as is.

Started life in Ohio, then Sacramento, CA, then TX and now out here in the middle of nowhere :)

This is the original owners manual. Looks like the only time it was every opened was when they typed in his information.

I saw it too and wanted it, but it was bad timing for me. Very nice find, and I'm glad to see it went to a good home. Love it!

HaHa!!! Great looking rig!!! Congratulations!!!;D;D;D I bet we get to see it in Townsend next year????%)%)%)

Yes sir, reservations made about a month ago. Will be bringing both 66's. Hopefully the one on the right will be a little more presentable and more "66 correct" by then.

Great addition! It must not have been in Ohio for very long in its early days.

Farzadmip and myself doing some web sleuthing..........the Ohio owner appears to have passed away in 1973, and it was possibly just parked until 1988, when the Sacramento owner took possession.
