Hey all, happy to be here. I just stumbled across this 1965 Patrol in a shop in the middle of the desert and couldn't pass for the price. I don't know much about them yet, but am as excited as can be to get it home and find out. Happy to have found this group for a resource, thank you for being here!!! Looking forward to chatting with you all. Cheers!

Re: New 1965 Patrol Owner
Welcome to 60Patrol! 
That is a great looking Patrol you found! 
It has many nice features visible. I think it's probably later than a '65 based on the door handles used, probably a '66 or '67. Can't wait to hear more about it!

Re: New 1965 Patrol Owner
You are probably right, she wasn't positive of 65 and was thinking maybe 66. She hasn't found the title yet, so I will update when I find out. Yes, it is in very nice shape. Apparently the original color was yellow, and she had it painted this green. It has been well cared for and the metal is in very good condition. I will be hitting you up for some info on brake parts once I know what it needs for those. It would also be nice to find an original air cleaner, as the original from this was replaced and, gulp, thrown in the trash. Thanks in advance for the help and support!
