Wow, kroz!



We gotta get that baby back in your garage somehow.



Everything about it says horsepower.

Yeah, I just about cried when I got rid of it.  But the first born was outgrowing her infant seat that I sat on the corvette console!  Back then there was no laws about infant car seats.  She was real good about staying in her infant seat far longer than most children, but the fact was.... I needed a place to put her as she grew!  (She is now almost 42!)

It truly was a beautiful car..... silver exterior, red leather interior!  I loved it.  :thumbsup:

Our best friend had the blue one in your pics!

Yes, they were damn gorgeous - at least many were.

But mechanically the average vehicle was awful.

Total deathtraps and rustbuckets.

I OWNED THEM AND DROVE THEM.

And almost all of those cars, could drive right through/over a most of these "new" cars out on the streets today.

Especially that "Eco" car/box on wheels thing they have! :lol:
One of every five Americans you meet has a mental illness of some sort. Many, many, of our veteran's suffer from mental illness like PTSD now also. Help if ya can. :) http://www.projectsemicolon.org/share-your-story.html
And no you won't find my "story" there. They don't allow science fiction. :)

I traced my current car's ancestry...



The 1951 Buick Le Sabre concept-car, unveiled at the 1950 Autorama in Detroit... featuring the Buick-8 Dynaflash power-plant.
