Yes, please :)
I don't know what's effed up on mine and I won't be getting to it for a long time.
Better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it.
 
That doesn't stop my wife from throwing out parts that "look useless"
 
Warning!
Extremely profound post coming:

My wife and I were sitting having coffee together early today.
Looking out at the yard, the conversation turned to how we only do what we love now.
And she said:
And you are still working on that '67 Newport you bought... [from my father in 1970]...."

Hmmmmmm

Memories or not, it is still a car, and cars need love and drive time,. Very cool car. Would be proud to put that in my collection.

I just did a 66 Fury 383-2 4 door for a guy right before my Fury showed up in my life,

I swapped in a MOPAR dual plane intake, Summits .460 lift cam and lifters. Fresh timing chain and new Holley 650. Woke that car up. It had good torque but was all done by 4000rpm. Lost no torque and now it pulls like a freight train until 5300. But your car looks a litte nice to be changing too much.
 
I'm even leaving the flex hose on it for a long while. Doesn't bother me. It didn't bother the 20 year old Stan. Fine with me.
 
Do you know how long I have wanted an interior like this?
Gawd I love this car.

I found this authentic blanket on Etsy and I swear it feels like it's made out of horsehair. It feels so right. This sucker is heavy.

I found this blanket on Etsy and it's made here (don't know if by Native Americans) and I swear it feels like it's made out of horsehair. It feels so right. This sucker is heavy.

I happen to have a couple of period correct weird blankets that always covered the first few cars in my family starting around 1966, they wander through all my cars especially to cover full Vinyl benches, feels right and I still remember puking into a few of them on these typical long distance vacation trips as a kid with only one pee per 500 kms. ;)
