Wish it were like it was....

Remember when you grabbed a 8.75 rear end from the bone-yard from a 4 door b-body? Then pulled 3.91's from a '68 Truck at the bone-yard? And you got both for 50 bucks? You pulled the TQ and cast intake from a Maxi van for 20 bucks? Add a 125 dollar MP cam and 89 dollar Cyclone headers and you were a tough run in between stop lights or out of town at the marked off 1/4 (not 1/8 .. lol).
when were those prices!??

maybe back in dickety-doo when you could get a GTS for $75 and swap out to a set of 3.91's in 45min that you got from big nose bobby, but you had to trade 'em back after the weekend or he'd make you take his sister big wendy on a date to the DQ and give him a pack of camel unfiltereds.
