Great thread.

This photo reminds me of the movie "The Deer Hunter" remember the gang's hunting party return w the "spoils" on the hood?

[69 DAYTONA]

...my dad went in partners with me on this car in 1988, he wanted to own a winged car but wouldn't put up the cash, so we split on this one

...the Daytona had 6K original miles

...he had lots of cool cars when I was a kid, many convertibles - 57 Fords, 61 Chevy, 65 Ford...also a 31 Ford, several 55 Chevys...he never grew up and neither have I

...the Daytona, dealer installed 6-PACK
...65 Ford, I learned to drive in this car
...68 GTO...he helped me order a new '68 GTO, he drove it as much as I did

My Dad had a '55 ragtop Beetle that he restored in the early 80's. It was pretty cool for a VW. My favorite is still the 68 RS/SS 350 Camaro. He sold it when my brother came along.

One just exactly like this one currently on Ebay. Dad's had correct 56 caps which are prettier than these. (My high school car 58-60)

My earliest "car" memory was of my Dad's 66 corvette roadster. The folks would put me in that little cubby behind the seats. (I was 3-4 years old) very good fun for a little kid! My brother came along and the vette got traded for a more practical "family" car. A 67 gto! I have got to get a copy of the folks' black and white photo of me standing in front of that car while Dad was washing it back in 68. As I restore my 67 Gto, my Dad reminds me he can't live forever and Reeeaaly wants to drive an old goat again. Oh, and my Dad told me he got $1800 trade in for the vette on his 67 gto deal, yeesshh!

Came home from the hospital when born in a 1968 Vodoo green HO four speed GTO with dealer installed Ram Air.

When I was 17 he had a 1975 bucaneer red Trans Am that he let me drive to school. I will never forget watching the hood scoop shake at stop lights. Awesome!

Both long gone.
