started looking for my first car at boston police auctions once a month w/ my dad I was 15, we started bidding on a 68Rs/SS ConvertW/ orig. motor, in primer, roof shredded ,
5$ first bid, had it at going twice at 350$, 1 other guy started bidding, up we both went 5$ ata time, ran out of dough at 800$, father said I can't loan you money your mother will kill us both if we bring this home, well after uncle scolded us for letting her go, we were both hooked on camaros, found my first 67 327 coupe in east bum NH out of want adds, 1000$, shot to hell, drove up in snowstorm from cape cod, found it in middle of farm field, after spraying about a can of ether in the carb, boom! cooked the hood, but she was running and we proceeded to drive her home w/ no headlights / side windows/ or seats, we used milk cartons,crazy but true, restored her in 4 months, scoured every bone yard in new england for parts w/ pops, found my 67 yenko for 500$ out of the wantads too 11yrs ago.
