I graduated early at 16, so I did not get to drive much in High School.

But it was a 1965 Chrysler 4 door Newport....Haha

Right after I graduated, I got a 1970Camaro SS 4 speed with Bias Ply Tires...

A pea-green (Palisade Green) 1970 Firebird Formula that I dragged out of a farmers field. Looked identical to this...


And talk about your "coming full circle", the new project is a 1970 Firebird that I thought was red, until I removed the fenders... Yep, Palasade Green!!!

1968 Camaro-77 Corvette Yellow with Black SS stripes/Solid Centerlines

1968 Chrysler Newport-It was my winter car. I bought it for $300 and it floated down the road and had a big old back seat.

What happened to the car after high school? Well, I still have it. The picture above was 1987. The picture below is 1997.

The kink below is the build thread.

I paid cash for it when I bought it and it has not ever had a loan against it.
