Bill, Ok, that interesting! A good friend of mine who's a '66 Tech Advisor and a 35+ year GM employee told me that they were not in use until 1967. Maybe he was just referencing full size cars. Also it's possible since your car was a late '66 build the stickers could have been a late production year addition. I'll check with my buddy again.

Doc is good, 4 spd trans & tach is correct, came as a package with a big block and you'd get the dash mounted clock.

But a 6k redline on the tach ?

[mssl72]

Should be 5500. Any reason you think it should be 6k Paul?

[fsc66]

No, tach is wrong tach should be 5500 red line for 390 HP and 6000 for 425 HP, I wasn't asked about tach just paper work. Probably changed along the way.
There are issues with the restoration some of which have already been identified but pretty cool overall for a wagon.
