only one muscle car era vehicle i ever plan on actively pursuing to purchase

68 Camaro SS. and i know the exact one, sits in a salvage yard, burnt and wrecked. this exact car was my dad's very first vehicle, and everytime he talks about it i see him like hes 17 again. the frame is still solid to a point

two cars i WILL own before my time on this earth is done:

'37 chevy, one in particular
'68 camaro, again one in particular

I'd love to fuck with a 69 SS Big block 396 El Camino. I know how your dad feels about the Camaro. I bought my 67 when I was 17

When my buddy fires up his 10 second 69 Z28, I can't help but to get a good sniff from the tail pipe. 116 octane out-the-ass gets makes my soul :hugglez:
