'72 Vega GT. Fun to drive, but on a quiet night you could hear it rust.

63 Impala Super Sport. 327/300 with factory air. Paid $225, fixed a dented door, buffed it out, and sold it for $400 six months later to buy my first Camaro (a 68 RS). Dang, I wished I had some pictures!

Thank goodness someone else had the bees to post up they had a VW. I was going to skip that dark (slow) phase and go directly to the 67 ElCamino

Sadly, no good pictures of either....




I think there is enough DNA on that old black and white to convict me.....of something I was doing.

1970 Nova. 6cyl. with Torque-Drive 2-speed automatic. My parents paid $200 for it and THAT was too much. It didn't take long and I had a 327 with a Turbo 350 and a one wheel wonder. It was fast or so I thought.
