Hey guys I'm 42 back in the 80's car from the 60's were all we could afford, It was a chore just to keep them running. I wish I had the cars that I've gone threw back then. 67 Lemans - 1ST CAR bought it for $50.00 dollars. Ran it for awhile in HS and ended up selling it to a friend who was restoring a GTO. He still today has that Goat. worth 10x what I sold it to him for. I've owned a 75 Dodge Charger, A 72 Delta, 74 Mustang, 65 Mustang, which my Dad took back from me cause I ran amuck with it, 76 Chrysler Cordova and yes it had corithatin leather seats,(hope I spelled that right) 2 chevy trucks 85,78,a 78 Plymouth Fury, and an old rusted out Ford van. Had my 1st and only child by 19 and was divorced by 23. Single father until 95 than I met the real true love of my life Nancy. I've been in every aspect of the building supply since I was 18. My little girl (she will always be my little girl) has come into herself and has since left the nest. I felt the time was right to find a classic that Nancy and I could have fun with. Today I own a 72 Corvette Stingray and my pride and joy a 68 Delmont 88. I enjoy old cars, it's great to see them around. Original cars the most. I'm not into hotrods I had enough of them in my youth. My daily driver or should I say rider is a 2001 HD Roadking. My 03 GMC crew cab sits more than it's used due to fuel prices. I remember back in the 70's my dad came unglued the day high test hit .50 a gallon, would hate to be standing with him today while he fills his Caddy. Enough already I'm starting to ramble. I found this site a year ago and have just now started to chime in. It seems to be full of good people. God Bless everyone.
