Throwback Thursday!!! lets see what your current car used to look like!

Is that a tri 5 Chevy in the garage in 69?
My dad bought this as a second car in 1968, the 63 Plymouth wagon was their only car at the time.
Stock 235 six with a 3-speed. He drove it from 68 to about 75 when he got a 73 Barracuda (318 auto). My brother then took it over as the kid car and drove it for several before buying a new Civic. I then took it over as my first car in 81 and drove it as my daily driver till 85 when I got the 67 from my Grandfather. It then sat for a couple years (it needed work) and my younger brother took it over, sold the engine and built a frame for it (stock frame with racing parts added). Never finished it and ended up selling it about 2013 having never driven it at all. 100% rust free car.

This picture was from about 1985 after banging out the front turn lights that had been pushed in. Never having worked on a car I had the front end sheet metal off the car by my self, hammered out and back on the car in a weekend.

Fun car just not my thing.
