If you look at the pics on our Facebook page, we are doing a LS swap on a '61 Chevy Parkwood Wagon!

The seats look like Gen 4 Firebird. Console might be the same.

Here's my future project. 1954 Studebaker Conestoga Wagon. This one will have a warmed over Stude 289 with a 200-4R instead of LS power though. Unless I change my mind.

Here is a 67 Chevelle wagon that I just finished.

LS engine with a 6 speed paddle-shifted automatic. C5 Corvette brakes, and all SPC suspension pieces. I built this for a road car, but is still has 420+ rear wheel horsepower on the dyno.

Yep, that is a stock 67 SS hood. I agonized for quite some time about whether to use a cowl hood or a SS hood, and settled on a SS hood. They do make both a 2" and 4" cowl hood for your 65, but I don't know of any other non-stock hoods made for it.
