Popular Post other dog Posted May 6, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2017 I haven't been to any exotic locations, like New Mexico, but I did go to a little car show just up rt. 29 at Yellow Branch last week end. Here's a few highlights- it wasn't a very big show, but they had some really nice units there- Always liked this model Corvette- This '70 Nova SS 454 might have been my favorite...OK, it was my favorite, maybe because my first car was a '72 Nova. I might call Sonny Leonard and see about getting one of these to swap into the Ranger pickup. 7 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted May 6, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2017 Another Nova. I went to Chester, W.V. where I saw the girl with the nice ass. I don't know what her name is or what her face looks like, i've never seen it, so I just call her the girl with the nice ass for obvious reasons. Pteradactyl- this one looked like it wanted to bite somebody, so I kept my eye on it. The last thing you want to do is get bit by a pteradactyl, if you do there will be hundreds of them on you in a matter of seconds- they are very dangerous aminals. I took a couple of metal working machines down to some place in S.C, I don't remember the name of the place but it was about 15 or 20 miles from West Columbia on rt.1. They went to a garage in a back yard, no sign or anything indicating that it was a place of binness. Good thing they invented cell phones. No room to turn around or anything, I had to back in off the highway. Some dude at the TA...I wrote the caption. Today's truck driver I guess. An Astro in Camilla, Ga. I went down there to get a load of trailers going to Appomattox, Va. Nice little load- like being empty. 6 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post other dog Posted May 6, 2017 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2017 I saw a Falcon for sale in Concord. I saw a Ford pickup for sale in Concord. I've got another load of toasted junk loaded up- Some Superliners in W.V. Almost forgot- I saw the best "a girl in a car" of seatcover season so far. And I even saw a big Mack truck. Then I saw the same girl in the same car again. ...and later I saw another girl in another car. Then I saw many more big Mack trucks. 10 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

It came with a three speed in the floor, but I bought an M-22 Muncie 4 speed and put it in, with a Hurst Competition Plus shifter! But i'd bet a big block Nova was the cat's ass! Wishing we had it now... I had the '72 Nova, a '68 Camaro, a '70 Chevelle SS, and more, but if i'd put just those three in the deep freeze, i'd be retired now! 1 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

other dog Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 I remember I gave $200 for that M22 Muncie, that was in 1974 or '75, and that was big money then- but I wonder what would it be worth today?

Hell a good case alone averages $900. Had a 64 Nova SS with factory AC and a dealer installed 283.I bought in California in 1971 to drive home to NY when I was discharged. Also had a 63 Impala SS 327 factory 4 speed, a 65 Impala SS 396 Factory 4 speed, a 66 Caprice with a 396 automatic, a 70 Monte Carlo 454 factory 4 speed and a 74 El Camino 454 factory 4 speed. I sold the Monte and the Camino two years ago in Atlantic City. Do have a 3/4 completed 65 Nova with a worked 500 Caddy and a 700R in it, but that's my wife's so she can hunt 5.0 Mustangs .

Kind of rare. 53 minutes ago, other dog said: Holy hamburgers Batman! Run with most anything on the roads in the mid 70's and cheap on insurance. My 63 I built into a low rider(pre popular) before I sold it in 1978. Two things with buying these cars. 1- during the gas shortage in the early 70's, I was buying most of these for pennies on the dollar. 2- my wife and i were pulling in a few thousand a week running our Mariino's Ices Funnycar and a pair of 71 Challengers in pro stock and super stock. So we had money to piss away so to speak. The Challengers, Monte, El Camino and the 71 Duster we only auctioned off in last two years. The Challengers both had about 17 or 1800 miles on them from only racing. The funnycar (less the engine) we gave to Garlits for what ever he wants to do with.

The good news was that t would go 110 mph in 3rd and still push you back in the seat when you put it in 4th. The bad news was the 10 mpg while you were just tooling around town. Fast as it was, it was no match for my '72 Pontiac Ventura sleeper with a worked over 428, bored .040 over, Crane cam, Hookers, etc. That thing also got lousy mileage due to the cam and the special HO Q-jet with the "beer-can" secondaries.

Monte got good mileage with 2:94 gears, Camino had 3:08s and was decent on gas.My 55 chevy with 5:38's and 27.5 tall rubber gets 3 1/2 on a good day but takes 2 hours for the grin to leave my face , My 72 Superglide gets 12 per or 45 miles to the tank. The funnycar in 73 got 4 1/2 gallons of alcohol to the 1/4 mile. My El Dorado was good on gas about 19 on the highway. 2 tanks from Riverhead L.I. to Fork Union Va. Only worry about mpg in my trucks. Both my wife's cars get the mpg and are not embarrassing foreign crap, so we travel in them.
