Default Re: First muscle car,year bought

My first muscle car was a hand me down '67 SS427 Impala, 1976. I always had a soft spot for 427 Chvies regardless what they were in. I had that for several years but that was not the problem.

It was not until I built a '69 SS396 Chevelle with a 427 low rise 2x4 set up that I got to know the police by name. I finally sold the car about 3 years later due to harrasment from the boys in blue. Ironically, I NEVER received any violations as I never broke any (spelled 'caught'). It was simply a rolling billboard for speed and they never let me rest.

I have had many since but none got the attention of that Chevelle by the police! After 25 years, I have still never received a violation.
