Default Hope this story does not anger to many

First pontiac that i bought was from an old man that owned the local laundry mat.He said it had a bad trans. "but had a broken tranny line"
It was a 1972 or 3 Pontiac Grand Safari Wagon. Had a 400 4bbl motor and had about 34,000 miles on it.
This car was spotless and i bought it for $150 in 1989.
Well to make a long story short i used the wagon in my first 4 demolition derby's never winning anything but that car kicked the crap out of more chevy's impalas and various other junk than you could imagine.
The engine would get so hot that it would start to glow sometimes. It would always start back and would push any two cars sideways for as far as i wanted. People still bring that car up to me 16 years later.


My story thanks

Dave

Unhappy

I had a 71 cat that I shot the piss out of with a shot gun, and then went crazy with the bat on a 73 lemans, but that was 20 years ago.

Back in '88 I bought a 76 LTD Wagon for $100 with cold A/C. Turned out it was awesome for camping/fishing. Up until a few years ago you couldnt give a old station wagon away.
