Ok,

Your time machine is back on line, but it's not quite 100%. It can only take you back to 1966, then transport you and the car of your choice back to 2013. While back in the good old days, you can pick the new 1966 car of your choice to take back with you. Just one condition: The car has to be a daily driver-type car that can seat at least 4 adults. No big-block Cobras, no Grand Sport Corvettes allowed.

What are you taking back with you?

600

- Peter.

Pontiac Grand Prix

http://www.toyadz.com/toyadz/carads/66grandprix1.jpg

"[edit]The 1966 Grand Prix received only minor appearance revisions from the 1965 edition including a new more rounded split grille and new taillight trim. Inside, a revised instrument panel included a squared off gauge panel and new Strato bucket seats in either Morrokide or cloth upholstery with higher seatbacks and more contoured cushions for improved lateral support. The Strato buckets were standard equipment along with a console, but a notchback bench seat with center armrest was a no-cost option.

Engine offerings were largely unchanged from 1965 except that the 338 hp (252 kW) Tri-Power 389 option was discontinued, leaving only the larger 421 available with the three two-barrel carb option, which was offered for the last time this year due to a new General Motors edict that banned the use of multi-carb options on all GM cars with the exception of the Chevrolet Corvette starting with the 1967 model year."

make mine three dueces....

My first choice in 66 would be a buick wildcat 2 door, and if I could wait two years till the body style change in 68, it would be a buick skylark GS

When I was little dad had a 1967 sedan. The back seat seemed like a play ground. I prefer the lines of the 1961-1963. In my book one of those in black is the definition of elegance.
