Picture of my Hemi loaded up and on the way to the track (Thompson or Norwalk in OH.)? with the original owner. Check out the fin on the van.

My 69 Dart Swinger 340, purchased in December 1970 from the local VW dealership (dealership owner lived across the street from my mom [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] ) for $1700. 4 speed, R4 red with black vinyl top and stripe delete. This is the only actual photograph I have left of it, a blurry Polaroid. My friends' 69 Super Bee is in the background.
![]() The much better, clearer Polaroid I had of it, I gave to a friend of mine who wrote a column for the local paper in the 1980's so that he could use it. I never got the Polaroid back [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img] , but here's the picture as it appeared in the paper with his captioning (slightly exaggerated, I might add)

In June of 72 I traded the Swinger to a friend for a 68 Olds 442. Kept that all of 3 weeks and sold it to another friend because I found what I really wanted - Cortez silver 70 Z28, 4 speed.
![]() In September 72, my girlfriend (now wife of 40 years) and I both had some vacation time to use up, so we loaded up the 70 Z and headed to South Carolina to visit my friend (and his wife) who was stationed there in the Army. Here are a couple pics of us in SC with the car...back in the days when I had a little more hair.... ![]()

Kept the 70 Z28 until 3/14/73, when I traded it in on a new 73 Z28 at Fencl-Tufo Chevy in Glendale Heights IL.
![]() This is a picture of my now-wife and I on the way home from our honeymoon in April 74. ![]() Marilee and our dog Cisco sometime in the winter of 74-75, with the 73 Z and my friend's 65 Impala convert in the background. ![]() Quit driving the 73 Z on a daily basis in early 1976. Despite my pledge when I bought it new to keep it totally original, I did the Day-2 thing in 1977. My good friend Dave Schele (R.I.P., Dave [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img] ) did an awesome pearl flame paint job on it, keeping the original color of Midnight blue metallic. ![]() ![]()
