She passed away in 92. Time really flies. Bruce, you surely must have made the trip up Monte Sano Mountain. Thats where those pics were taken. There are several scenic overlooks on the way up and down that road (or pkwy as we call it).

I have several photo albums of cars that I can't find for some reason. I know I have one of drag races in England in the 70's. American cars and British stuff. I'll keep looking around

Here's a skinny pic of me in 78. I just recently found this car again after selling it in 1990.

Here's me in `78 or `79 along I-75 near Valdosta, GA
Distributor locked up and had to get it running long enough for a trip to the wrecking yard for a replacement.



Here's my wife (fiance at the time) holding up the replacement distributor.

Man, I love the picture of the Chevelle in front of the junkyard. Fat tires in back and I think see ladder bars under there. That's what these cars used to look like and I really miss it.

Here are 2 fresh out of the WAY BACK MACHINE!


Buddy and I went swimming in the Gunpowder River. Yes, I liked air shocks back then.


Here's another skinny (with more hair) picture! Don't remember exactly what I was doing, but the air shocks and L60-14's were probably removed earlier that day.

Is that the same car? You've held onto it all those years?

Yep, those are ladder bars on the car and I still have them, the car, and the wife!

It morphed from a Malibu into an SS396 too ... !!!

it used to be "cool" to pinstripe the heck out of the cars ... forgot about that, even the windows were pinstriped ....
