Re: What car do you wish you had back?
Two,
One is still in the family. First car was a 69 Camaro X-11, 307, console 3 speed. Bought in 1982 for $650.00, 500.00 earned by me, and a 150.00 loan from an uncle (Dad refused as the car was "to fast" for a 15 year old). It was green/black. Had it repainted the next summer firethorn red, and added keystone classic rims. After that, a close friend wanted one so bad we spent the entire summer looking and found a X-44, brown/green 307 Camaro. We spent the next two summers on that car. The following year, he was killed when he stepped in front of a speeding car, after seeing his girl with another guy. I bought the car from his family, and eventually gave it to my youngest brother. He drove it through his high school years, and after selling mine while I was in college, I convinced him every time he wanted to sell his, not to. I am now 39 and he is 32, and he still has that car (currently Hugger/Black, w. Cowl Hood, and a 427). He is now VERY glad he never sold that car!
