I learned my "stick and rudder" skills right here in 1977-78. My dad bought it new in early '68 and was the last new '67 the dealer had. I was five and remember the salesman saying goodbye to my dad as we drove off. Kept it until 1980 when I was a senior in high school. No radio, wood wheel and dash, overdrive. Used to go to Tahoe for summer vacations when the car was new and it would get hot going up Highway 50 out of Placerville. We'd pull over and let it cool down with the other overheated cars. Great to go around the lake with the top down. My dad taught me how to drive it in such a way as to preserve the clutch's health and avoid potholes. I use those skills in my '84 today.

New in early '68:
