I remember the sunken trunk for the spare for the 66 and I remember being suprised the one for the 67 wasn't deep enough for a spare tire. or maybe wasn't even there. But I am seeing posts about them having one. Am I just old and remembering wrong? or did cali have a different model? or was the one I owned messed up by someone else first?
