The only car I ever owned ... that I *should* have kept. ;-(

Well, here is the one I DID save, stored for 20 years and am now "restoring".

It's a sobering project, since a new paint job is twice the cost of the car brand new...

This article gives me hope.

We’re in! Hubby is restoring a PAIR of ‘68 Vettes. I refer to them as his girlfriends. And it’s just fine with me.

I owned 2 78 Z28’s and a 70 Chevelle SS in my teens and early 20’s and sold each one for around 500 bucks. Now i’m seeing the Camaro’s alone going for at least 15 grand in about the same shape I sold them.
I wish i still had any one of those cars in my garage. I’d be out there every night working on it.
