For me it was my first drive of a V8. Next door neighbours 69 427 Vette (I was 17 and had never driven a V8 before that)....mmmmm Love the sound of a big block through 4 inch side pipes !!!

With never enough resources and no family at all into cars best I could do was read lots of magazines and start building a few cheap rides (63 pillarless parisienne, 39 Chev 4 door). But I always dreamed of Chevy iron, just so much better looking than the aussie cars of the era.

I've worked my butt off for the last 15 years to be able to fund my dream car, in 12 months time it will be on the road and I will be finally living the dream (that is if these things are ever considered finsihed.
