Here ya go tmm....

Funny how things go - in high school I could afford the $1800 1971 Bcuda that grew from a 318 to a 360 to a 440.... 30 years later, I can't afford one worth buying to relive those days.....even more so, the 71 ragtop I had just after high school........

Of course, there's the 70 dart that got parted out back in 84 - gave the kid twenty bucks for the 340/727, the 60 Fury I drove for one summer, the wrecked but savable In Violet bilboard 340 cuda I picked up for $200 just for the grill and park lamps.....

Dang, I never got any good deals like that. Love it. My first car was a 65 Dart, 45 years later I find a fun 66 GT 273/4 speed car. Only this one I could afford. The car I always wished my 65 was. A 3 on the tree with a bench seat that old 65. I would jamb 2nd. and the shifter would lock up. I kept a hammer under the seat to break it loose..It would burn that 13" bias ply on the right rear for a quarter mile. lol (I thought so at 16) Well my original was a HP273/3 on the tree 2 door post. I found out a few years ago back then they only made a handfull with that combo...........Oh the cars I should have kept. LOL tmm
