  3. A '66, right Stig? [​IMG] Is it yours?

    My brother-in-law bought a new '65 coupe, purple, 4 speed with deuces. Was pretty fast but he had a lot of trouble with it so he swapped it for a '67 327-300 Chevelle.

    My high school buddy had a '67 GTO creampuff (it was a year or two old when he bought it), full power, dark blue with black vinyl top.

    At the time, I was driving this:

    Eh, when I met my first wife she had a '66 Tempest maroon convertible. She made me sell my 440" 390 HP '70 Roadrunner when we got married! Grrr . . . Actually, I sold it on my own. What an idiot, oh well, was only 21. :(

    Camaro in the pik was a '68, bought it new in September '68, it was a stripped 3-speed six banger, couldn't afford anything else at the time (EDIT: The sticker was $2,700 but I got it for $2,200, because although brand-new, it was one model year old).

    But the next spring I bought a 327 engine out of a wrecked '69 wagon and dropped it in (that's what you see) -- I added the 4-barrel AFB. I think the 327 was available in the '69 Camaros, but that might have been the last year.

    The almost-new 6 banger later went into a Chevy II beater I bought for winter use. It was an insane life back then, lol. I never had it so good: living at home, always had a dresser full of clean clothes, 3 squares a day, and I took over the whole garage.

    My parents probably should have kicked me out like a million times, but never did. May they RIP. :(

  11. Yup, health becomes the most important thing in later life. If you live to be 90, but spend the last 10 of those in a nursing home, with hot 20 year old nurses changing your diaper, what's the point? I'd rather die at home at 80.

    I've had serious health issues in the past 6-8 years but mostly got over them. I'd like to think I've got 10 good years left (I'm 67) of being able to get in and out of my Corvette (it's very low) but one never knows. Once you get mobility problems at this age, they generally never go away, they only get worse.

    But for now, fuck 'em all, I'm plowing forward, feel pretty good, enjoying life, and still doing as much work as I can get.

  13. Tilapia is a fucking trash fish. Disgusting. Farmed seafood is also as equally as disgusting.

  14. I'm with you brother, I only count the good years. Nursing homes, no pot, no grows, just eating shitting and sleeping, I pray to go out like a hero in a life changing moment. At 57, I think it's my last chance to change my life and get healthy.


    Nice ride. I had a seville once, it was my present to myself. I saved for a house but when it fell though i got so discussed I bought the car and a trip to hawaii. Next time around I had more tickets already purchased and a house opportunity came around, and we dropped the tickets and bought the house. too funny

  15. Sorry you had to eat it to find that out. That's equally disgusting.

    They are fucking amazing pest control. They eat pretty much anything they can get in their mouth. They used to be grown for fertilizer. Eating fertilizer, fucking barf-a-roni.....

    LOL.

  18. Haha!!

    I wouldn't get rid of it, even if I wrecked it. I would take the drive train and interior, save it, find me a 57 bel air chassis & start a project.

    It's a sleeper, until you hear it lol. BTR stage 3, and the other works in it. It's a super fun car to drive.

    I get a lot of "what's in that thing", and when you tell them in all reality it's a 4 door zr1 vette, they're like "ahhh, I get it now"
