1964 Chevy Impala wagon...283/PG It burned more oil than gas, but it was better than walking...my father gave it to me and I sold it to a Corvette guy for $75 as a winter beater after that a 64 Chevelle and then the first L78 Nova This all happened over a period of a couple of months...great fun and super memories

My first car was a 1970 Mercury Montego MX. It was my granfathers car.302 and a c4trans. My twin brother and I had to share it. If we both were doing things we would drive are mothers 1970 Buick Electra 225. Later my brother bought him self a 1976 Cutlass. I gave him some money for his Half of the Mercury. I installed a cam heads headers in the Mercury for the fist time. The cam was 500 lift so with a stock gear it wasn't much from stop but on a roll it ran pretty good. The funny thing is we always wanted to moms Buick when we had a street race. I know it sounds funny But this was originally my dads fathers car. So it was always has been in the family also. My brother and I were known for racing it. I remember racing alot of different cars in that car from a 70 sport fury to a kid with a 67 mustang 289 fastback. That kid came up to the Texaco Station I worked at with open headers Saying I'm tired of hearing about that Buick. I raced him Three times on the frontage road and beat him all 3 time he was mad. You think about the things you did and realize you got away with allot Well Back to the Mercury after 5 c4 trans missions I had enough I sold the Mercury bought a 1979 Trans Am Smokey and the Bandit Black Even had a CB in it. Then a 1970 L-46 Corvette 4SPD THen the 1969 Z/28 I still have 22 years Later. Hugger orange Born with drive line.
