Sure. I remember when they were just cars. I got my drivers license in May of 1968. Bought a 1964 327/300 HP powerglide equipped Impala SS convertible. Paid $650 for it. Drove it all summer and took it with me to college. Sold it for $500 and bought a 1967 Triple Black SS396 Chevelle with 4 speed, buckets and a console for $900. It had dog dish hubcaps which I didn't like at all. One of the guys in my dorm had a 1968 GTO which he added chrome mag wheels to. I offered him $50 for the Rally II wheels with redline tires. Put them on my Chevelle.
