Speaking of muscle cars, anyone ever saw that show on Discovery that fixes up old cars? Desert Car Kings I believe? I can't stop laughing at that roided up 40 year old. They do some pretty good stuff though.

Chevy is my favorite but like you, I also like them all. They don't make anything like they used too, that's for sure. Nothing "classic" about todays cars/trucks.

He didn't race at state capital. I think there might have just been a strip where no problem is if I remember him telling me right. He used to run at the old strip in laplace and i think the old one in pville. That old comet could run pretty quickly the only car that beat him was a Chevelle with a 502. So he sold it the night after he got beat and bought the 76 corvette.

My uncle passed In 2000 and his wife gave me his 1968 mustang gt California special edition. Has the 302 I'm restoring it slowly. The actual color was this sea foam looking color.

57 Vette or a 67 Camaro.

I'm trying to get a 57 Vette in the shop now. One of my customers owns 5 or 6 of em and I think he needs to get one in here so we can make it whole again!

This is exactly like my dads old comet. It had the 302 with 650 Holley Double Pump Four Barrel Carb with a Isky cam, Headman headers. Fastet it ever ran was 13.20 with street tires and street legal mufflers in LaPlace. 72 Comet. 2480 pounds of nothing but a wind sounding muffler.
