Re: True Survivor
I remember so many original paint, rust free, original owner muscle cars in 1975-1977 era-when i first really started to get into cars.
My 7th grade English teacher owned a gold, black interior 69 307 or 327 ?? approx 1977 that was just mint. She was the original owner. Original paint, No rust. 100% stock She really took care of it. Funny, back then I thought the car was old when it was just 7-8 years old but when you are 14-15 years old that is an old car.
She sold it a year or so later to a HS kid who totaled it couple month later.
Another older classmate bought a original owner, original paint 1970 Olds 442 convertible with the twin scooped hood approx 1978. The car was trashed within a year and sold and later wrecked as well.
Both of these cars were bought by guys who were not really into cars but just used them as a "tool" to get girls/look cool.
So many of these cars original cars were trashed by thoughtless owners...what a shame looking back.
