I buy and own cars that I wanted or had when I was younger. I graduated from
H.S. in 1965.
63 Nova SS clone w/350 TH200-4R, 3.55-posi
70 Nova SS clone w/350 Ramjet crate motor, 700R4, Moser 12-Bolt.
70 Skylark GSX clone (Skylark w/ Yellow GSX paint job)
73 Opel GT (mini Corvette lookalike) too good a deal to pass up but I doubt I
will keep it after restoration is complete.
My late bro-in-law got me interested in old cars, he graduated H.S. in 1957.
At one time he owned at least 10 Model A Fords. His daily driver was a '50
Merc.
64-72 "A" body GM cars were the best ever built in my opinion.
