<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: 69 Post Sedan</div><div class="ubbcode-body">I really liked this link.....brought back some good memories. I laughed when I noticed one of the pictures was of my brother and his girlfriend leaning against his 70 Mustang. Picture was taken sometime around 1973 or so.
</div></div> Did they ever get hitched? One thing I like about Hemmings Muscle Machines it's usually brought up frequently in the feature car articles where the guys speak of their girlfriend who drove around with them back in the day and are now their wife of many years. I don't see any other magazines doing this...the human interest side of the hobby. Looking at the pics the tumbler site I wonder what the people are doing today, are they still alive, did they ever get married to the girl in the pic, are they still into cars etc. |

No, he's not with her anymore.

Re: 1970's Street Machines
Most of the guys that were my dads friends back in the 70's are long gone. The few that remain are still car guys, but they have turned into "gold chainers" who sit in their folding chairs at cruise ins and go home at 8.30.
I told my kids if I ever turn into one of those guys, they are to make me sell all my stuff and put me on a park bench. Kurt.. you can click on the archive button in the upper, left hand corner, and it will bring up thumb nails of all the pictures. They are in order by date. Click on each thumb nail to enlarge. |

Re: 1970's Street Machines
I was born in 1963
And I grew up next to a parkway I remember The cars racing at night and losing control And hitting the light poles and trees ... ( street racing up there almost every night in the summertime . Most of my friends older brothers had muscle cars Or one modified into a street machine It was. A great time to grow up ...... ( I like the yenko vega picture with the lboy in The snorkle jacket I had the same coat back then..) |
