Cheryl has a 59 original 283 with a powerglide. All the original stuff is there but the carb and air cleaner. It has a crappy repaint on it that is flaking off. When they painted it they cleaned off the grease pencil markings in the trunk so original color is now a mystery.

I bought a 69 a few years ago when everything hit rock bottom. Looks like the same hack repainted it also. Original 300hp 350, 4 speed and 323. with ac, ps,pb and power windows. Silver with dark green interior. All there and in good shape. Just a beater to drive around every once and a while.

When I was a kid the neighbor next door had two friends. One had a brand new Pantera and one had a 2 year old Vette. That was in 71 and I was 7 so if you say Vette I think 69. I always wanted one and this one was way cheap.
Ok cool. When I was growing up my neighbor had 2 shelby Mustangs..a GT500 & a GT350. DAMN I wanted one of those for years until my other neighbor brought home a 69 Z/28 and a 69 SS 396 Chevelle for his kids.. I wised up rt then and there

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.
