I just talked to Tibor and Cumby....they were too embarrassed to get involved with this thread, so I offered to help

Tibor's first ride was a Model A Ford....bought it from the original owner

Cumby had a Model T....he bought it from the father of the guy Tibor got the Model A from

They said they would post some photos for you guys to see...can't wait

<font color="blue">My first car in 1976 was a 1971 Dodge Charger R/T 440.
My dad would not lend me the extra $$$ to buy a 1967 Camaro SS 427 / 4 speed (street race car)so this was all I could afford.




The ad said 71 charger - custom carburator - excellent condition - $1400 firm.
The custom carb turned out to be a chrome air cleaner.

I went and looked at it &amp; told the guy I would take real good care of it but all I have is $1100. He liked me &amp; said OK.
What a great car. 13.99 at the track just like I bought it &amp; I drove it everywhere/everyday.</font>

Well my second muscle car was a 1969 RS/Z28 hugger orange black stripes and vinyl top. I purchased the car in 1979/80 in Franklinville, NJ. All was going well on my way home to a suburb of Philly until I decided to get on it in my home town. Well I attracted attention, unfortunately I was pulled over and given several summons (noise , no registration excessive speed) geez give a kid a break. I was a block away from the tag store for registration. I kept the car until the spring of 1983, when I was married and needed funds to buy our first home.


Stay tuned......

Well in my last post I said stay tuned.... well after 24 years of persistence my second and favorite muscle car is coming home. I received a call on 10/14 of this year a day before my mother passed stating the owner was finally prepared to sell. It certainly was a bitter sweet moment, but the great pumkin is on her way home. She still has her orig drive train and loaded with options. Sammy will be proud .. the car will be day 2 just like the way I originally had her. Its been a long journey and I'm glad she is home. Stay tuned for the journey ahead.
