Man, I really, really hate that Camaro!!You should give me the Camaro, that way we can keep the Cascades between it and Jackelope and keep his groceries in his belly. It's the humanitarian thing to do.

That photo is at the new house. I just moved the car over there the other day. Need to get the cover on it and pile some hunting stuff on top of it. The chevelle is the wife's. I don't dare put anything on that. The Buick was my dad's.
I really should drive them more just don't have enough time.

The Camaro doesn't get groceries, thankfully. That's the crappy Chevelle's job. Yet another eyesore.

Good grief, that Chevelle is *censored*!Not sure why the site censor censored "a grocery getter". :dunno:

I like the ghost flames on the Buick and if you need to store the Camaro someplace I've got some room in my garage. :chuckle:Thanks, my dad did that car 25 years ago. The paint is starting to crack in some spots but I'm not touching it. I love those flames and just don't know if I trust someone to repaint it and have it look the same.
I had the camaro right after highschool. When I came back from the military I had that camaro and a crotch rocket Honda CBR motorcycle. That motorcycle was going to be the death of me so I sold it and used the money to have my dad paint the camaro. Not sure why I picked purple with the black top but a year later my wedding colors were purple, silver and black. I am thinking my wife was sending subliminal messages in my sleep.
That Chevelle was the second to last car my dad restored just before he died. It was the only thing keeping him going, "I've got to finish this car." I didn't exactly have the money at the time but I just kept buying parts so he could keep working on it.
The last car that he did was a 55 chevy. He was all over me to take it up and have the wheels and tires and put on it. I didn't want to do it because then the car would be done. I finally took it up and got the wheels and tires. Took him for a ride in it burning rubber and slamming gears. He passed away two weeks later.
Great memories with those cars. I don't drive them nearly enough but I will never sell them. I hope to buy that 55 from my sister some day.

History for sure. I dont think I'd ever let someone touch them either. :tup:13 and 16. I think they were 7 and 10 when they saw it for the first time outside. They had been pulling their bikes in and out of the garage their entire lives and had no idea it was there under the blue cover with boxes piled on top of it.

I also have a 58 Tbird go cart from when I was a kid that my dad and I actually worked on together. I told the kids next year I will drive the buick, mom will drive the chevelle, Jessica can drive the camaro and Katelynn can drive the go cart in the Normandy Park 4th of July parade.

Body lift. :chuckle:58 t-bird go cart.

Actually had to stretch it 10" to make the wheel opening line up with the go kart wheelbase.
My dad wasn't the greatest at parenting but he made up for it with really cool stuff for my sister and I. He did his best and I appreciate all that he did for me.
