You're right, I had the year off by one and now edited. Although I'm not sure the better/worse discussion leads too far...BUT.....In terms of the better starting place given coil front end and parts availability I completely agree 63-66 is a much better call. I did read somewhere that the later chassis was less rigid. That's FWW! It might be a useful point for a 4x4. Scottie.
