thanks slantsixdan - i agree about the rear stylin. but i am biased, since a US val would cost five times as much down here. there was a non-running rust bucket 66 convertable with trashed interior going for $5K.
there is a bit of a difference with the front - i'l have to post up a better pick of the front
oh, here's one i found from the interwebbies:
and yours:
your '66 front end has more in common with the AP6 ('australian production')
(apart from the 'wings' i guess - nah now i look at it i see your '66 front panels are the same as our 67 VC front panels)
