Default A day to remember

I was a sophmore in HS and hanging out with a friend just blocks from home. As me and Gary were walking to his house,he spoke and said here comes another friend of his driving down the hill. Then i saw for the first time...a car which i can still remember commercials about. Garys friend John was driving his fathers 64 Tri-Pwr GTO. After a brief talk with John and him allowing us some good looks at the heart of this icon,he had to go,barking the tires too of course!From that moment on,i never really felt the same desire for any other car other than the 64 Tri-Power.Oh i admire many other machines,but to me the 64 will always be my fav.I've been fortunate to have owned 2 - 64's,one a 4Barrel& the other a TriPwr. I never had the wisdom to do what i needed so as to keep the cars. Maybe someday once i do the 65 clone i'll try again to deal myself into another 64. But meantime i do as so many of us and keep the memories alive.....
