Nice car, CONGRADS. I too have been looking for my old HS car, 1968 GTX rag CLONE/TRIBUTE. Story I got was the the ORIGINAL GTX was involved in a street-racing crash, the guy bought the car back, found a 1968 Sport Satellite convert, and changed EVERYTHING (440 4sp Dana 4.10 front torsion bars rear springs) over. The Original car went sideways into a pole on the passenger side door.
Anyways, I sold the car as we all do. I was able to relocate the car about 12 yrs ago in a Chevy guys collection. I spoke to him 4 yrs ago and still not willing to sell. I came to find out he passed away about 2 yrs ago now and the car was sold off. Still looking as depending on condition and the $$$, would buy it back ASAP.
Nothing like being 16 with a mild built GTX rag, 4sp 4.10 car. Black with black top and red interior. Fun times.
I see why people get attached to their old cars, I know I sure do. If I can get it, it WILL be in my will for my 2yr old son.
