OK, I'm new
I don't know if we're expected to intro ourselves, or if this is the place. But, I saw an interesting link on another board about an L-72 68 Impala here, so I thought I'd join and see what else is here. Seems mostly Muscle Cars here? Through the years I've had about 200 1st Gen Camaros. Mostly Z-28's/BB's/Converts/RS's/SS's.....etc. Unfortunately, because of price, not so many in the last 10 years. I've moved on to oddball stuff (Gassers/big Pontiacs/30's and 50's cars....). But, as a kid in 60's Brooklyn, it was a thrill for all us kids to ride our bikes to all the dealerships every September and view all the new Muscle Cars as they hit the showroom floors. Anyway, right now I own a 38 Chevy Coupe (sled), 64 Vette fastback (60's Drag Car flavor), Model A Gasser, and one of the nicest V-8 Vegas I've ever seen. If I goofed here, lemme know. BTW, I got a Baldwin/Motion catologue in 68 at a show in N.Y. that I still have around here. I used to dream about buying from Joel

Re: OK, I'm new
Like I said, I LOVE Muscle cars, but this is what I've been playing with lately, due to the huge cost of Muscle....

Re: OK, I'm new
Neat stuff and welcome aboard! Do you have any more photos of the Vega? Annie and I have been wanting to build us a street car that we can have fun with and yesterday a 72 Vega GT wagon came up possibly for sale. Ford 9", healthy small block, roll cage, etc all converted over in 1979. Perfect Day II car. I love the color of the Vega you pictured and would like to see more.

Re: OK, I'm new
Here's a few of the many Camaros I've been lucky to own. (did the link work?)

Re: OK, I'm new
Question guys.....If I'm away from this board, and return later, is there a "user control" sort of thing like other boards that returns me to where I left off?

Re: OK, I'm new
Yep, worked for me.

You know how to make an entrance! What type of wheel is on the back of the 'Vette? It reminds me of a 1980 or so Z/28 wheel. Jim |
