Re: Reunited
Ronnie -
I regret selling just about every car I ever had
1st car in HS - 69 SS 396 Nova w/ 4sp very clean (sold it) circa 1980
2nd car ...........70 Boss 302 (had it for over 20 years &....... sold it) 1980-2001
3rd car ............2 69 Z28's one silver & one red(didn't have em long sold em to make money) mid 80's
4th ..................70 SS 396 Chevelle Auto/w air - had this car from 85 through 92... reason I sold it?.............. to build an Super Stocker !
All of them were matching # cars at a time when that wasn't that much of a big deal.
The Nova was an animal ! Such a great car....... I was too young to really appreciate it. That was the first car i took to the track "to get a time slip". I street raced it mostly and I just loved working on it. I even let my mother drive it once ! I sold it to a guy in Brooklyn NY & the car was promptly stolen from him.
The Boss belonged to a distant relative who had bought it new. I bought it off him and had it and enjoyed it for a long time - Regretted selling it but that's how it goes.. I used the proceeds to buy real estate - which worked out pretty well.
The Chevelle was a Great car too - I used to use it daily - it had a ride like a Cadilac.
In the 80's people still used to drive these cars around and you'd see them on the street every now and then - Now you really only see them on cruise nights.
I loved em all & wish I could have them back now - I'm sure everyone has a similar story.
when I get my scanner hooked up I will put pics of them in my class racer photo gallery
