This is my new project. A little rough around the edges, but not bad for a car of its age. Have the engine out now and rebuilt, waiting for warmer weather to re-install.

 

Beautiful car! And welcome to CO
Nice pics. Rundown of options, please?

 

Nice car!!

 

It doesn't look to bad too me. Looks like a nice car and good project. Good luck with it.

 

Wow, awesome looking car! Now I'm jealous.
I see this is your 2nd post so welcome aboard!

 

Nice Car. Looks like a good starting point for a project.

 

Thanks guys, as for options, it has rocket rally pac, strato buckets (pass seat reclines but no headrests), uhv ign.(missing original dist.), ps,pb,ac, remote mirror,and the turnpike option (th400,442 suspension,CCC)

It has some rust on the rear quarters and the pass. floorboard. Pretty solid otherwise I guess.

Does anyone know how many of these 67's came with the TC option?

 

Looks like a great starting point! Are you going to jump into the body work? Or will it become a driver for a while?

 

Looks like are real nice car. Welcome to CO

 

Nice looking car, good luck with the project.

 

Doesn't look to rough around the edges. Good luck with your project.

 

Definitely optioned as the GT cruiser it was designed to be.

There were approx 2300 made.

 

Pretty car! I had one the same year and color in a 'vert! It just looks awesome in that gold!

 

Thanks again for the nice remarks guys. Hark442, I plan on doing the floorboards myself but the bodywork is a little beyond my capabilities. I do know a good body guy who primarily does older restorations. I know I need to save my cash as there is a LOT of bondo on this thing!

 

iROKTPWRD's car has me all kinds of excited. My 1966 is very similar. <<< Excited. ROKTPWRD

Hey ROKTPWRD does you car have a Jetaway? Cool that it has buckets and a collum shifted automatic. Mine has the split bench Jetaway option.

 

Im not sure how many came with the TC option but I just picked one up a few days ago.

 

I am diggin it!! I love the turnpike cruiser 67's! Its like a highway friendly 442. I would like to get myself one someday. Looks to be in good shape.

 

Wow, very nice. It's in a lot better shape than most.

 

The original post is 4 years old, and has not been heard from since. Aside from that, lets see some pics of the new to you TP Cruiser!

 

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr, didn't see that. Rob....

 

Hey Guys, Sorry I haven't been on in a while (yeah, FOUR years). I got the engine in and running, and have taken it to a few car shows in the past few years. I still need to upgrade the exhaust, rebuild the tranny, and replace the pass. front floorboard. I can't seem to find time for it, (too many projects). I will try to keep you all updated on the rehab.

 

Post some new pictures when you get a chance. Rob I take it back.

 

So you say you have the UHV ignition minus the distributor. I also have a UHV ignition control box and no distributor. I sent a points dist to Distributor Dave, he converted it to an HEI dist. and put the module in the gutted UHV control box. So its looks like an original UHV ignition set up but actually better, I painted my dist. cap and coil red as they came on the UHV cars. Maybe you would be interested in this, maybe not. Just thought I would pass this on to you. Joe Padavano is the one who told me about Distributor Dave. However if you do it, find another dist to send him so your cars not down. He will completely rebuilt it according to the specs of your engine. Cost was only $204.00 plus shipping. It took about 3 months to get it back but its cool! I think anyway. Probably easier to change the module in the control box than the HEI dist. You can just Google Distributor Dave if interested.
