Yup, great memories. For our wedding present (1971) my father-in-law gave us his 1965 Bonneville station wagon that he used daily to carry his carpentry tools to the jobs. We eventually used it as a trade for my '72 Trans Am bought off the floor. Looking out over that monster hood with the head light/fender peaks and the center hood peak, it really brought driving that Bonnie back. Cars have come a long, long way since those days, but it is still one hell of a treat to float down the road in them. I still can't believe how disconnected the power steering felt compared to my G8 GT (and all new cars) and how it wallows around corners but boy, I'd never turn one down if I found such a great example like Keith did. Absolutely a treasure.

Easily corrected with new ball joints and a couple of sway bars. Believe me and the BMWs I embarrass.
