Vintage pics of muscle cars-post yours up here!!

I sold the SS and a week later it was totaled. Here is my first 10 10 69 Z28 in 76. It had a wrecked front end and I picked up a complete front end from a wrecked in the rear Camaro at a local salvage yard. Had it painted and the shop ordered a new hood, ZL2, and grill, black. These pics of the car are right out of the paint shop, still needed to add the rear bumper guards and wheel well trim. I had the Camaro script shaved off the fenders and had a Gothic letter Z painted there, you can see it in the pics. I got orders to go overseas myself in 79, Mildenhall, AB and sold it and a week later I got a call from the guy that bought it off me saying he sold it to some young kid in Baltimore and he totaled it.

Bought this in 82 when I got back to the states. Yeah, my kids. I own the 69 Caprice in the pics too. Never got the chance to do anything with the 67, divorce got in the way. This was a white Camaro with Gold interior 327, power glide.

Bruce...I noticed the comment on water marking photos, can you recommend something? There is quite a bit on this when I Googled. Is it better to go to a site and go thru the motions or have your own stand alone program?

Here's my 66 Chevy II around 86.

My first SS396POS circa 1982/1983:



396 version 1 (L34 based with a Crane CC290NC solid cam, Vega converter in a Turbo 400, 4.56 12 bolt):



396 version 2: 11-1's, square port closed chamber heads and the same Crane cam.

Never got this one to the digs, but it was considerably stronger than version 1:



At the digs in 1983 with 396 V1:

13.20's @ 107 with ZERO hook on Kelly Springfield N50's.

(Not too shabby for a dumbass snot nose kid.)



Spun a rod bearing on the next pass which resulted in 396 version 2.

Giving a friend something to waste the last few pics on a roll of film on:



I would give everything I have to be able to go back to those days.

This was after I found it and was U-Hauling it back to Connecticut from Miami. Had to stop at &quot;South of the Border&quot; to get a bumper sticker.

And were you living on Robin Masters' estate in Hawaii at that time? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

This was circa 1983, high school car.



This is when I found it post katrina in a junkyard, in 2006. Bought it and restoring it back.



Another One:

This was not mine in 69, but I am the current caretaker of the &quot;Tin Soldier&quot; COPO. I did meet Ron, the original owner as well as get these vintage photo's from him

Ron was a pretty well known privateer from back in the day, and the Tin Soldier COPO a multiple class winner. Only has 4,000 miles from new... All 1/4 at a time.
