Steve,

Funny how you were probably deemed the outcast and poor kid driving that old junker mopar with that big stupid wing on the back. If only they knew [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

I was always sort of an outcast too. In high school I drove a '74 Nova SS Hatch. Very nice black on black car and back then we still rode air shocks to jack up the rear. I was running Keystone classics with the really wide rears and normal fronts. In my high school years the &quot;it&quot; kids were starting to drive imports. We had the spolied pricks driving Supras, CRX and others like it. A few rich kids also have the Trans Am GTAs, Grand Nationals, Irocs or Mustang GTs. I was the poor kid and therefore I drove what I could buy and what I could fix.

Love that picture Steve. Wish I had some but as a true poor kid I wasnt running around with a camera.

LOL. That camera was a twenty year old Pentax that my dad gave me when I was 13 years old. I still have it! I spent most of my time as the official evidence gatherer and documenter of all thing devious back then.



One of these days one of those guys is gonna run for president and I'll have some great blackmail material. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Great find. I've always liked the styling of the 1978-81 Camaros. I hung on to my 1978 Z28 I bought new in July, 1978. It currently has 87,000 miles and is all original except for mechanical items that have been replaced, console box, and headliner. I added an IROC style front air dam within the first six months I had it. Hope yours turns out just like you want it to.

Better come up with something worse than that if you want them to compete with the other cadidates. If his opponents posted these photos I would certainly vote for him!

They will always remind me of high school! I went on my first date in one. I definitely liked the car more than the guy! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img] He had almost no personality and ALL he listened to was J. Geils! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/crazy.gif[/img] Don't get me wrong...I like J. Geils, but he opened his cassette tape case and EVERY cassette in there was from the J. Geils Band! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] Their song &quot;Centerfold&quot; will always remind me of my high school days too...but not that guy [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img], as it came out after I went out with him. Those of you who were in high school about that time will probably remember this video [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img] [video:youtube]http://vevo.ly/en3kwJ[/video]

Reminds me of Jeff Spicolli thrashing and wrecking that silver Z28 on Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

Nice find!

That's how it always works, though, isn't it?

I junked a decent 82 Cease Fire T/A several years ago. Really wish I had that cold air hood back. Wish I had the Cross Fire set-up and air cleaner hat back, too.
