Anyone know anything about this car?



It's not a real old pic because you can see a minivan in the back but, they also made minivans for several decades so.. not sure how old the pic is.

That pic is probably only a year or two old.

I don't know the owner... But I have been going to Kingdon for the last few years and remember seeing that car run.... Its a '66 LeMans....

A couple of my Chevelle buddys run out there every year.....

that minivan being the rounded body is going to be at least mid 90's and newer.

My 1970 GS455 circa 1982.

With 80,000 original miles, unmolested and original, some rust and some dents. When I bought it she had whitewall JC Penny tires, K-Mart mufflers, and the owner was selling it because he couldn't find leaded premium gas anymore. It had original paint, with a/c, power windows, power door locks, tilt wheel, AM/FM stereo, rear defog, power bucket seat, this thing probably weighed 4000 lbs.

Stone stock, untouched engine, with exhaust manifolds, gummed up Q-Jet, ram air foam worn away, and a leaking water pump that some Bar's Leaks fixed, I drove this around daily, and I loved it. The stirrup shifter on the console, the way the shift indicator moved on the dash, the comfortable seats and ride, great car.

My favorite all-time "other brand" car.
