In 2003 I found this one and spent 5-6 hours everyday after work and all weekends restoring this car, so it means alot to me. I am more careful driving the '73 than my Ferraris of Lambo, it just means much more to me than those cars..

When I was a kid (12) in the early 70's my dentist (and dads good friend) bought a '71 white w/blue 455 HO 4-speed TA. He had a cabin up the McKenzie River Valley 40 miles out of town........I'll never will forget the first ride up there with him. In high school one of my good buddies picked up a red and black '69 Z/28, he was a great driver and memories from those rides made it easy when my best friend in '89 found a Camaro for me, he died 7 years later and I won't sell it for his memory.
I understand your bond with the '73 SW.
