My second car. 1970 Superbird. I was 16 when I got it in 1979. They were just 10 year old used cars back then.

LOL. I saved every penny back when I was a kid. When all my friends were buying mini-bikes in junior high school and wasting money smoking that reefer in senior high school, I was putting all my pocket change in my savings accounts (back then you get 8+% interest in a savings account!).

Nerdiness pays off sometimes!

Seen here before, but since you asked...

Bought from original owner Oct of '67. What we now call "Day 2" started immediately beginning with peeling off the SS stripes. I flogged the original 396 to death, Hurst, Hooker, Crower, 4:88s etc, etc, then an over the counter L88.

Since 1977 a '69 L78 that I've gone through twice.
Today it is unrestored with much original paint and 40K miles. MCACN Day 2 Display 2016 (Thanks Dan!!), MCACN MCR Cover Car Display 2017 (Thanks Arvid!!) and Day 2 Concours Gold.

My 1st car I bought. June 1984 I bought this off my cousin who was the 2nd owner. It sat in the back of the dealership building that his family had. Paid $3500 for it with the paint job that is still on it today. Factory quad black 1974 E58 360-4bbl auto 3.55 with 34k miles on it. Hardly gets out anymore. Oldest boy wants to get it up and going so he can race PSMCDR with me.

Is that an Olds Toronado with a 455 and fwd in the background? A friend had one in college and it was a ton of fun going out in the Rochester NY winters with.

----Steve,,,Jake Dykstra (senior), his wife (Birdie), Jan and I were there. Jake had his fairly fresh resto 62 Impala 409 and I had a white 69 El Camino with a low horse 454, and a 400hp Tri-Power set up with (at the time) a new set of 79 Corvette aluminum wheels and tires. I liked that old beast a lot!.....Bill S
