If you are selling your restored vehicle, you need to be careful what you say about it in print. I worked for a dealer who advertised an older Ford as being "restored to original condition." A person bought it, took it home, and later sued the Dealer and won because the court decided a car could not be restored to original condition. Brings to mind the old saying, "They are only original once." I see a lot of high-end muscle cars with poverty hubcaps. It is my recollection that the Chevy SS, Ford XL, and others all had spinner caps as standard equipment. The lightweights probably didn't follow that. I have a hard time figuring out what a "Survivor" is. I don't see rust buckets are survivors or cars that have been repainted as being survivors. ... View more

Several years ago I bought my wife, Sue, a 93 Mustang Convertible for our anniversary. In addition, the plates I got for her were "SUZPONY". I still have the plates but I'm not using them. Right now, the Plates on my crewcab are "ERPTECH", which stands for Eddyville Raceway Park Tech. I was a Technical Inspector there for about 10 years. They also are my college colors. ... View more

My Dad bought a new 67 Camaro in Granada Gold, matching interior with a bench seat, power steering, exterior decor group, tinted glass, Posi-traction, Powerglide, and 327/275 HP. Very fun car for a 16 year-old. Hard to believe this was our daily driver until 1970 when he traded it off for a 67 Pontiac Catalina with A/C. Guessing it would be rare (not expensive rare)with those options but no idea whatever became of the car. The Camaro retail price was around $3200 and we got it for $2700. MY Dad always thought my brothers and I tricked him into getting that big motor, which was around $43 extra. ... View more

My experience with OEM parts and aftermarket parts is with fenders for a 1970 Mustang. We had 1 NOS fender and 1 aftermarket fender. I could have put the NOS fender on blindfolded, it fit that well. The aftermarket fender looked like a Mustang fender but that was about it. It didn't fit anywhere and had to be modified heavily to fit reasonably well. I would suppose they might be making them better now. ... View more

It was reported that a local football player bought the first Viper in Colorado. I don't know if he still has it. The guy I worked for I believe bought the 2nd one at a Kruse auction for $105,000 with 102 miles on it and it was titled. He sold his collection of 150 cars in 1995 and it brought $56,500. ...

No, they don't make them like they used too. My son rented a 2019 Suburban to drive from Iowa to Virginia last year. All the bells you can think of including automatic running boards and who knows what else. So lets see, you have a 1990 Suburban that rides like a tank and would be lucky to get 10-12 mpg. So do you drive it or let it sit and look at it? By the way, the 19 Suburban got 24 mpg. No they don't make them like they used to. ... View more

Seems like a nice package until you get to 3 cylinder or 2.0. That's supposed to be off-road fun? Where's the V8? I wish they would have left the Bronco name alone and called it something like the Escape II. ... View more

Except for the whitewall tires that Camaro looks like the one my Dad bought in 1967, Granada Gold, 327/275HP, automatic, bench seat (i was 16 at the time and it seemed like a good idea!), tinted glass, exterior accent group, posi rear, AM radio. My brothers and I always got a kick out of my Dad when he would say we tricked him into buying "that big motor." When I saw the billboard with the 67 Camaro in Granada Gold, I thought that was the best looking car ever. Interesting that this was our family car, I had 2 bothers, and we were all over 6 feet tall. I still wonder where that car is today, hopefully somebody is still enjoying it as much as we did. By the way, after I went to College, my Dad traded it for a 67 Pontiac Catalina with A/C in 1969. ... View more

In 1964, my Uncle, a Chevy Dealer in Sioux Falls, SD, had 409's as demo's. His was a blue 4 door hardtop and his wife's was a blue Impala wagon. His son's demo was a black/red interior Impala SS 409/409 4-speed. In 1963, a guy in our town traded in his 57 Corvette for a Maroon Impala SS Hardtop, 409/409 HP. At 14, I thought that was the best looking car I had ever seen. Currently, a friend of mine has an old Chevy fire truck with a 409. ... View more
