Love it.  Had a buddy who had a 383 Charger R/T.   

Why we never kept these gems I'll never know.  Now it's $30K for a nice one.

You got that right.

1968 Mustang 390 cubes. I let my brother have it when I went to Nam in 69. It looked like it was in a war too when I saw it again.

'79 Toyota Celica  (put) (put) 

Bought a '69 Camaro shortly afterwards to make me forget about the weak 4-banger in the Toy.  Cam has a 327 which I still have to this day...  20 Years later.

My first car was a 72 Ford Pinto handed down by my older brother.  After a couple of months it finally occurred to me that this was complete bullshit.  I emptied my bank account on purchasing a 69 Firebird and suddenly my friends were proud to ride with me.  One of the best decisions I ever made.  That car got me Saturday night dates that never would have happened in a Ford Pinto.  It was a GREAT Senior year in High School.

The sad part of my younger years is that my folks had money, and I was a soiled brat! I wrecked my Trans Am the first time I drove it? Not bad but I took out a mailbox, and dented the left quarter panel! ? I hate to admit this but I have wrecked or totaled over 10 plus times between the age of 16 and 30! I got a brand new 1986 BMW 318I and within a month got a DWI, and Dad sold it!

1978 Chevy Custom Deluxe pickup with 3 on the tree.  Bought it for 1000 bones, drove it for 4 years, and sold it for 800.  It was ugly but I loved it.
