The wife is taking me out to a great restaurant tonight because I am so awesome.

Tomorrow is golf day.

Good morning everyone, another lovely day up north.



Up early to do a small job on the mule, gas tank strap broke so I just have to put the new one on.

Time for coffee first.....

Damn you're old.

I'd forgotten about that - mostly because they were so rare that I've never actually seen one on the street. Chevelle SSs, GTOs, and 442s were all much more popular.

Everything's relative. For their time they were indeed special cars - they were one of the floaters in a bowl full of sinkers. But they don't hold a candle to modern cars, so the only reason people want them now is pure nostalgia.

Look fugger just a few years older than you!!!! Yeah my dad had the GS. One of my favorite all time cars. Fast, sounded great, and put you back in the seat like not too many cars can. And that was 1970

I would bet that we are knowing that I have seen a family tree that goes back to North Carolina. For curiosity sake, I may have to do some investigation.

Not sure I would say that. You would be hard pressed to find many cars that can run 12 second quarter miles stock without spending some serious money.
