Back in the late 60s, my older brother had a Black 64 Ford Galaxy, 2 door coupe 428 4speed. Traded that for a used '67 Corvette coupe, 427 single 4bbl 4spd muroon coupe with factory sidepipes in late '67. Sold it in 68 and went into the service.
In 69, he bought a '67 Caprice 396 4spd, and traded that a year later for a '69 302 Z28. Blew the engine on the way to Ft. Leguene for 2 weeks of summer camp. Put a new short block in it.
Then the family started in 1971, and he turned into a Dad. Sold the toys, moved to a house on a lake. New water toys followed.
