Retro pics, the good old days.

    When I got my first car--1965 Chevy Impala SS at 16 (1973) my first few day 2 mods were a set of ET slotted mags with hijacker air shocks so the tires would not rub and a set of cherry bomb glass pacs.  A buddy I worked with had a 1968 super bee with a set of purple hornies on it. When these so called mufflers eventually burned out you had one loud car but you thought it still sounded cool.  To this day I paint all of the model cars that I build with red mufflers as a signature build feature.  AAHH the sound of the seventies.

That green car is a Dodge Colt. My first car was a red one, the only 4 speed I ever owned.

I think this one was when Ian  first bought his Challenger. @jimynick

Hell no! We would've already taken those empties back for more beer! Although I might've been at that place, based on the random Crystal cases and the nearly hidden Labatts Extra Stock. Remember when we used to drink the high test just to get loaded quicker? Man, those days have faded, for sure! Canadian was like type O blood, everybody could use it- and did.

My first e body was also my first car. This is around 1991 or so. 318 column shift auto that ended up being a mildly worked over 383 / 727 my senior year. Lots of swap meet and local trading post / recycler newspaper parts. Great times!

 I was looking through some old photos and found this one of my car taken in June 1972 on the day I brought it home. I had not seen/remembered this photo before. I had seen others taken at the same time. Now I wonder why the wipers were not in the parked position.  At least now I know the Ohio license plate number I had on the car in 1972.
