I have this 1966 in my shop and I'm thinking of buying it. Would love to pick another owner's brain on it.

Do you know the history of it. Those are old school sports cars for sure. I rode in one when they were brand new a long time ago. |

Met a guy in Florida with one think 61 or 62 with hardtop, he was wanting to sell it, he had it for years. I ask him what he thought it was worth and think he said 30k This message has been edited by WildCat on 06-07-2015 at 03:47 PM |

Roger, had a 61, great car, but carbs can be difficult to adjust to get max performance.... Good luck, but a really nice ride |

u00tjs2, yours had the 3 carbs right? I think that's why the went to 2 carbs in the Bj8. Easier to balance. I had it up on the lift today and wow! The frame and floor are very nice. I think I need to buy this car. |
