I drove this car were it sits now about 30 years ago and shut it off.. it is a GRAND PARIESIAN hard top, buckets and a counsel.. 327 400 auto, it has hidden head lights.. it was a class act in its day.. you will look hard to find another
Well, I have two of them now but they both are pretty rusty so I can either try to make one good one out of two or have a stock of parts. Not sure yet. Those 67's Grandes kind of grow on you.

Well, I haven't actually seen it in person but I talked to the old farmer and his wife that were selling it. He tells me he bought it from his brother in law about 30 years go for the engine but never used it. He parked it where it sits and scared the kids off from messing with it. Hes says its complete down to the battery unless some one has robbed parts off it that he doesn't know about.
Hes also says it went through quite a few Edmonton winters so I'm expecting at least as much rust as shows and probably a bad frame. A parts cars with the power antenna (I think I see) and complete 327 TH400 combo with almost for sure a 12 bolt may not be that bad in any case.
Why i did it was mostly because my wife said she wanted to go down to Drumheller and she didn't mind if we picked it up on the way. What a great woman!
