rear suspension lift

I'll try to make the story short. Back when I turned 50 I decided to get back in the car hobby. My first car was a 65 Dart but I really liked the look of the 64's. This 66 came up on E bay and it was only 40 min. from my house. Except for the year, it checked all the boxes. HP273, 4 speed, 8 3/4 SG, Buckets, console. I bought it, made it road worthy, rebuilt the 273, and have been driving it ever since. It has been a great car. The house you see in the background was out on the farm where I bought it. It was a true barn find.

Long stories are O.K. 66 is a great year. I always get caught up in that psycho babble of what you see first or own first but it's true. I like the 67 Barracuda the best but it may not be...it's just the first year I owned...a 66 273 4 gear 40 miles from home...I say you struck gold. Thanks for sharing that short story.
