I can't find any pics of my first (a Marina Blue 66 Chevelle SS 396), but here are some good ones:
1. My Dad's first car - Factory solid red 55 Belair, lightly hot rodded.
2. My Mom's first car - Repainted red 55 Belair (born 2-tone red and white).
*These two 55's are why I exist. Mom and Dad were both cruising downtown Salisbury NC, and stopped to talk because of their matching cars. Now here I am!
3. My Dad's second car (with Mom's 55 in the background). 60 Impala, factory high-horse 348-tripower 4-spd car, but with a 63 409/425 2x4 transplanted into it in late 1963/early 1964. His buddy bought a new 63 Impala SS with the 409/425 and hated the cam and the temperamental carburetors. Told dad if he would put a single 4-barrel on the 348 and swap the engines, he could have the 409. Good deal for Dad!!
And yes, he liked those tube grills!
