You're killing me Jim. I've had two of those cars and I am hurting real bad these days for another big block 66 GP.

Nice, nice find. Way to go.

That interior is wild! Reminds me of what AMC was doing with their cars.

Hey Jim late to this post but  that is one handsome car!  I seem to remember that my dda had ordered those deluxe seat belt retractors when he got his new 66 so I think they are totally correct.

The seats well.... but hey can you post a close up of the AM/FM radio (looks Like)

I envy you for a car you can just drive.  Oh well, next July!

Congrats Ken!!!
The retractable seatbelts are factory installed.  I have a Canadian Chev dealership manual that was published in 1964 and shows the seatbelts for 1965.  I fitted retractable seatbelts and floorshift to my 65 Malibu according to the manual and just love them!!
