Default Re: 348/4-speed '61 Bel Air

When I was a punk kid (I know, that was a long time ago), I got my a$$ handed to me by an old man in a shiny new 61 BA 4 door hardtop in an impromptu stop light time trial. A few days later I saw the same car parked at our local cheapy gas station. I stopped in to take a closer look and the guy that worked there came out and it was the "old guy". Short story is that he had special ordered it with a 348 tri-power and a 4 speed. Said he needed a 4 door to haul the wife, kids and groceries, but the 348, tri-power and 4 speed were just for embarrassing the likes of me.

Never underestimate the old guys.....
