My first car is in this photo along with my second and third cars. My first car was the 1936 Chevrolet standard (covered by tarp in back) with inline 6 and manual trans and wipers. I bought it for $100 and drove it around in 1969 - 70. My second car was the Chevrolet Impala with 283 auto. Paid $1500 and sold it for about $1200 when I bought the 71 convertible for $1950 in June 1972. The orange 1970 Duster on the right was my parents car - a 318 with manual 3 speed trans. Oh and my hair is much thinner now.

'65 SS Impala is one of my favorite cars from the 60's.  Would love to have one with a 427 and 4-speed.  :banana:

Close ... Mine was a blue 1966 Caprice, 396 auto.  :wave:

Actually: I've thought about swapping a 340 into a Colt more than once.
That would be a handful to drive!   8)
