	Volume is forty-something cubic feet.  Ack--it's either 42.5 or
45.2--I can't remember.  This figure is from a period magazine article.

	Yup!  You can sleep in it.  Er, at least *I* can sleep in it.
Don't know how tall you are.  There's a nutty accessory (sometimes called a
sleep-in extender) which is basically a sort of hinge arrangement that
allows you to fold the bench part of the back seat around to give you a bit
more room.  (Good luck finding one!!!)

	You could choose auto or manual from '68-'73.

	Just curious--why would you be interested in a '68, but not a '69?
Both are fuel injected here in the U.S., both have the older body style and
(I believe) high-back seats, but the '69 adds the advantage of IRS rear
suspension (CV joint suspension).

Good luck,
