My first driver was a 1966 Chevelle Malibu 4 door sedan. I bought it out of the local paper for $300 in 2000. Stored indoors its whole life after getting hit on the right front in 1973. I fixed it but kept the fixed areas in grey primer. It had a 1969 250" six and a glide with 3.36 gears. Timing gears broke so I swapped in a 283. Also installed front WS6 sway bar and F40 rear sway bar and a power brake booster and some Rally wheels. Absolutely the most reliable car I have ever owned. Car is on the far right in the photo. Sold it my first year of college (2003) to a local guy and he still owns it.

My other "1st car" was my 1967 Chevelle that I still own today. Raced on and off its whole life. I got it with a 305 and a powerglide stuck in it but not hooked up. Bought in 1997 out of Chester Pa. I put a hot 350 in it with a 4 speed and 4.10 12 bolt. Went 13.0 @ 102 at Atco raceway in 2001. Was one of the fastest cars in high school at the time. Attached are a few photos of it racing in Philly back in the day.

I still have my first 2 cars. 1 is a 72 rally nova and the other is 68 nova. One went 12.56 and the other 10.50. Someday they might see light again? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]
