For anyone that may not know, this is the first Chevelle I bought when I was 17 in 1997. Dad and I restored it over 3 years. It's been through 21 years and 36,000 miles of me abusing and racing it.

My story is similar to yours. Bought my first 70 when I was 14 and in 1988 in central FL. Rebuilt it with my father and was driving it to High School in 1990. I eventually had to sell it due to getting married and not being able to afford insurance. While in HS, I lost my license three times in that period. Twice for to many points for speeding and once for racing on a roadway. When I got married out of HS, I didn't even have license. My current 70 still dishes out many many many many... street beatings !


Hey, I just found this place ( Thanx M. M. ) Is it possible to blow your horn on this site ? I also play a TRUMPet!
