Dont know anything else but I dont want to jump on the first thing I look at. The longer I wait, the more cash I can add to the pot and the hopefully the better the car I can get. If you guys dont know me i've been in the Fullsize section since I got into Pontiacs, now it is time to make a change into something with a little more sport. Dont get me wrong the fullsize cars are nice but last time I threw my 65 Catalina into a curve I was not comfortable. Anyway, get used to me guys, I know a just enough to be dangerous about cars.

I can relate my friend,I was an A body man my self,having owned a 70 GTO and until 2 months ago I owned a number match 68 442 since 1989,I also had a BUILT 462 put in it(Ebrock heads,Harland sharp rlr rkrs,Ross Racing pistons .520 Comp Cam..etc) with the orig.400 pulled to the side for safety/monetary sake,...paid off well
HOWEVER..............when we bought our 73 TA and then the 79 W-72...ALL STOCK AND ORIGINAL CARS,and felt the muscle car power with on the rails cornering...............LET ALONE THE LOOKS THAT KILL
YOU WILL NEVER GO BACK MY FRIEND...............NEVER
