First Cars and Musclecars

[EZ Nova]

Umm, first car. I was born in February 1966. When I was 16, I actually bought a 1970 440+6 B5 blue 'Cuda, 4sp and Dana with 4:10's. I bought in in March of 1982 from a guy who worked on oil rigs. He went out west and would store the car on his farm till May. Well May came and he wasn't back. So another car I was looking at came up for sale. 1968 GTX Conv. 440 4sp and 4:10 Dana as well. It was a bit more then the Cuda back then @3800.00 and I could get it THAT DAY. So I bought the GTX. Street-racing in the summer of 1982 as a 16 yr old kid and the 3rd fastest car around, maybe 2nd as I never got a chance to run for #2. The fastest car back then, 1973 454 'Vette WITH nitrous, put 3 lenghts on my one Friday night. Went on to win the corvette day the next day running in the 11's. Actally won some money with the 'Vette running up in Toronto Westin/Finch in those days. Even caught the eye of Longo's Challenger one night, but I knew better then to run him for $$$.
