Default 1967 caprice

i went out to the car barn this saturday to cleen out the caprice found a couple old mice nests and a dead mouse..in the trunk the front bench needs some work as the mice kinda ripped up a corner of it to make a nest and the rear bench is just about perfect. the whole interior needs a good cleaning dash and carpet is perfect and so is all the glass. the old owner my buds grandpa used to tow stuff with the car it has air shocks on the back and i found the radiator shroud in the truck "with the mouse" and it has a heavy duty tranny cooler on it lol cool stuff anyways heres some pics!

yeah its a really cool blessing i cant wait to pull it out in april and clean it up and start working on it! it has a small dent on the drivers front fender but i can easily pull it out. other than that it really has just kinda been preserved in dust..lol i really think the 80 some odd thousand miles are legit and it hasnt rolled over.

yeah turk im gonna have it sitting just like the white one i really like the white color. too id be cool to do like a pearl with white that be cool. the gold interior is just kinda a bummer for color changes
