I just bought a 1966 C code coupe for my son and I to work on. We intended to do something between a restomod and a sleeper. We bought this car because it was straight and rust free. It has 76K on the odometer, the last owner thought that was right.
The more I look at this car, the more I realize how original it is. The engine has a Thermactor, the CA NOX kit and sticker, and a Sears air conditioner, and nothing has been changed.
So do we start tearing into this thing because there were 100,000 made, or is it a time capsule? I could pull the whole motor and replace it with a 88+ 5.0, with cosmetics to make it look 66'ish.
