Memphis car; original paint; original patina; disc brakes; 12 bolt rear end; 43,445 original miles; a/c blows cold; US Dept of Defense car; p/s; p/b; 350 automatic; car drives excellent; nice original interior; if interested call Richard 519-758-4304
I'd like to explain the DoD sticker. It does not mean the car was owned by the DoD. It is a Base pass for Naval Air Station Memphis. So, at one time the owner was a member of the US Navy, who worked at NAS Memphis. It is now known as Naval Support Activity Mid-South. Interesting side note, a lone gunman shot and injured 2 Army National Guardsman at Mid-South in Oct 2013.

My first car was a Chevy Monza V8, it had a CFB Borden Pass decal on the left front bumper, It was kinda neat but I removed it.
Back in 2006 my friend Mike Piggott bought that car off e-Bay. Mike is an estranged member here and he still owns a Butternut Yellow 67 Beaumont SD396 coupe. He got a divorce a few years ago but he still had the wagon last I heard, but that was a little while ago. He was still pretty busy running his business the last time I saw him.
That wagon was rolling on 15x8 Corvette aluminum wheels last time I saw it.
by the photos it "looks" like the wagon has been sitting out since 2006 "looks" like a lot of deterioration

I was thinking it might be that car ! I seen it at Ancaster - he has Bill Brown's old 67 SD396 I believe

That wagon was rolling on 15x8 Corvette aluminum wheels when I saw it. That is his ex on the tailgate; his SD396 is the yellow car to the left.

I'm trying to picture Mike. What was his user name here?

I haven't caught up with Mike in a couple of years. When he got divorced, his wagon went to his ex. Evidently the wagon has deteriorated. It sounds just like a guy I know through Team Chevelle who special ordered a new 1971 Concours Estate 402 4-speed with Cowl Induction (legit factory special order!) that ended up with his ex-wife. It deteriorated severely and rapidly.
Mike's user i.d. is: mike67sd
Yes, he has owned several 67 Beaumont Sport Deluxes through Bill Brown.
