Call me slow on the up take, but I am completely lost.
Anyway, just alittle more background info on myself. A close family friend of my father and I's just bought a fathom green 1969 COPO Camaro. I don't have the number of it as I have not yet seen the car since I have been gone to college. Also in his collection is the # 64 02 ZL-1 Garnet Red. He has been very good to us and seems to enjoy seeing how excited I get when he lets me help work on the cars. Over the summer I had a shoulder operation to repair damage done from a high school football injury, and he put me to work helping hand the mechanic tools, and keeping the cars clean. He has really been a great friend, as well as a mentor to me. He put me to work for the sole reason that I needed the money being a poor college kid, and also becuase he loves to see how much I am in awe of his collection. These cars make me feel as though I am 10 years old again and playing Star Wars in the back yard. On several occasions he has let my father and I drive his 68 Z-28 on the weekends, which gave my father and I some memories that will not be soon forgoton.
I imagine that for most of you the very same reason that I love these cars is the very same reason why you do to. That is why I am so excited to be on this site with a group of people that not only love the cars, but know every thing there is to know about them. You, that were of the age to have lived during the age of real muscle cars are a lucky group, and there are times when I find myself saying that I was born many years too late.
A little more info about my father and I, we had been tipped off to this site by a neighbor of ours who also owns a few nice cars...super awesome, undiscribable, rare cars. I had also heard about it through several others, but it was our neighbor that really coerced us to get on and check it out because this site is so full of good info.
So now that I have written an edict...anyone still want to talk or have I just made all of you fall asleep with my little heart felt Muscle car story?
