Got the back seat out of the T&C and lying on the floor under the bottom seat was the broadcast sheet. Its in near perfect condition, very happy to find it. Also found lots of candy wrapers from the 60s and 70s, several coins from the 60s and about a dozen old orange push up ice cream sleeves. The car was owned by a husband and wife who bought it new and still had it in 2012. I have several of the registration cards up to 2012. Under the seat was a very sweet card from the wife to her husband with a long hand written love note dated September 1971. Hoping to make contact with the family to return the card. Really adds to the joy of owning an old station wagon to find evidence of years of happy times spent in the car by the original owners family.

A typical 66 Chrysler will have an Sales Order number that starts with 13. An SO that starts with a 9 just helps reinforce to 99 paint code and the car was a “special order”.

Do you know the history of the car? Is the paint color outside of the normal 66 Chrysler offering?

Dont know alot about the histroy of the car. I do have several registration slips that show the car was still owned by the original owner as late as 2012. Not sure about the color being outside of the normal offering, dont know what colors were available in 66. Im a novice Chrysler owner. Really was not looking for a Chrysler in particular when I bought the car. Just wanted an old station wagon to enjoy cruising around with the family. Now that I own one really starting to get into the brand! Would be very grateful for any informaton anyone can offer on the build sheet.

Regarding wheels - This was my dad's car that we've had in the family since '71. When I took it out of the garage after having been stored for 20 years it needed new tires. The front had H78/14 Bias-Ply's and the rears had new P225/75/14's. I liked the size of the H78's and thought the P225's looked too small for the car. Since the H78's were pretty much non existent or too costly if you could find them I upgraded to 15" wheels so I could get the similar size tires as the H78's. I also upgraded to 15" because I wanted to do the front disc conversion and needed 15" rims anyway to accommodate them.

The first photo attached is Blue's first sight of daylight after 20 years in storage.
The 2nd & 3rd photos are of the H78's and P225's and as you can see there was a Big difference! The main difference is the space between the rim lip and the white wall.
