Getting Ahead of Myself

Hi Folks,
I am about to pick up a '66 Town Landau. I wanted to research the vin and trim tag numbers. i thought I saw an address for a site to aid with this search but now I do not seem to be able to locate it.

I would appreciate any feedback. Looking forward to learning a lot here.
