I was about 17 when my Mom needed a new car. We went to look at a Buick Skylark owned by a doctor who had passed away. Mom liked it because it was red. It was one year old and like new, so we bought it. Driving it home Mom commented that it was kind of jerky when it shifted gears........
Neither the old man or Ma realized what they had bought, but.....I did!
1970 Buick GS stage one 455! 4.10 gears, turbo 400, chrome covers, rally wheels, and dual snorkle scoop hood!
We had lots of fun with that car.....guys would come up beside my Ma and want to race her.....she'd giggle and step on it...nearly scared the crap out of her.

Just like this without the black top.....
