Keith, 67 B body had hidden wipers, (depressed park), Pontiac made a big deal about it in their advertising that year.

No one mentioned the 66 Toranado FWD, then the Eldorado soon after. Not the first cars with FWD, but it was a big deal at the time since Cord I believe last tried it in 1929ish, through 1937?
