1979 Z/28–My first F-body, over the 5 years I owned it did a lot of mods and experimentation. Finally ended up with a rectangle port 454, 200hp nitrous set up, TCI 3500 stall converter, and a TCI TH-350. Lotsa fun in that thing in all forms, from the initial Bow tie head 406 small block with a 4 speed Muncie to the big block. Lotsa memories there….
1979 Trans Am—Bought pre-internet, found the original build and sales documentation in the glove box. Somehow, I doubt I could do it without internet now, I tracked down the original owner who told me his story of buying it in NJ and moving to Dallas two days later, then selling it to his brother in law inWichita Falls, who removed the factory 4 speed and converted it to automatic. Research showed it to be a fairly rare car with the Pontiac 400, 4 speed, color, and T-tops. Traded it to a kid for his 1986 Monte Carlo SS; he then wrapped it around a tree less than a week later. Stupidly, I turned down an offer from the original owner to buy the car from me at three times what I paid for it. Stupid, stupid, stupid………
1968 Chevy C10-My first vehicle, bought from my paternal grandfather. Long narrow steps ode bed, 307 engine, 4 speed with granny 1st gear. No a/c, manual windows, etc…….as plain Jane as they come. But that truck would be the one Inwish I had again, for sentimental value.
