That really is "NEAT"!

I've got to say, the 66's have a special place in my heart...both my Mom and my Grandad had them, and those are the cars I most remember them having now that they are both gone. I guess you could say "It's not your Father's Oldsmobile... although it could be your Mother's."

And, as I was born in 66, that's another reason I've always wanted one again. It's got to be the Luxury Sedan though, with the really cool "hidden" mirror in the back with the kleenex holders. Does anyone else out there even remember these?

Well, mine are 1967's Olds 98 LS's, both have the mirror & Kleenex holders'. Both have working air also. My Turquoise 67 has walked away from an 80's Corvette. Drive in with drag radials, runs 14:18@ 100 mph, drive home. Car weighs 4680#s. Engine went 11:47@117 in my drag car. Later, Ken 3-14-2007-42.jpg

Yes, Chris, I remember these and have one sitting in my back garage.
I bought it in 1992 from the second owner who had purchased it in 1967.
The original family didn't use it and it was too long for them to be comfortable in driving it. This one is Lucerne blue, which is a silver blue with a dark dark blue navy interior. Sorry, but I don't have any photos scanned in right now.
