My hands down favourite was our COPO Chevelle. Other than normal wear items, the only things I had to replace was one broken valve spring, and a water pump in close to 200K miles of driving, not all easy either. I replaced a clutch disk at about 100K miles while replacing a throwout bearing. The performance was pretty decent for its time. Before that we had a 1966 SD396 4 speed Beaumont and a '68 Ram Air automatic Firebird. Our L78 car would come in at number 4. Would love to have the Beaumont and Firebird back but they seem to have totally disappeared. Couldn't have grown up at a better time.
