My high school parking lot circa May 1980. Amity Senior High, Woodbridge CT. I drove the Superbird when my 69 Z11 Pace car wasn't running (remember they were cheap used cars back then).
The rich kids had the brand new Z-28s. The poor kids had the ten year old musclecars. The school janitor drove the black and gold 71 RS/Z-28 parked on the hill in the third photo. Black and gold were our school colors. I remember sadly watching that car rust away to nothing over the years. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And the old gang of hooligans. ![]() |

Circa 1981 when I moved out to Denver after high school to go to diesel tech school. 1970 440+6 Cuda, four speed. That's my brother's 69 327 three speed Camaro, behind it.

I lost the few pics that I had of my 1970 307 Malibu years ago. It was gold with black stripes and Keystone wheels. If anyone has any vintage pics (1990 or older) of a gold with black stripe Chevelle, I would love to see them.

Yes it was. Same friend also had a blue on blue AAR (and still has it today) and his dad had a 1969 hemi Roadrunner (which he would "borrow" occasionally when his dad left for work earlier than he left for school...) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img] |

1984, with my 1971 440+6 four-speed Cuda ragtop. One of five produced. This was after I found it and was U-Hauling it back to Connecticut from Miami. Had to stop at "South of the Border" to get a bumper sticker.
