Had a 1967 2 Door T-Bird when I was a senior in high school. It had the same engine I believe as yours and it use to win me the Memorial Challenge in Ft Thomas more times than I care to share these days.:sssh:

 

I have no doubt...I was young and a bit crazy and that thing was a beast! You would be on the highway coasting along thinking you were going 60 only to look down and realize you were actually doing 80. I was checking out the specs and did you happen to see that it also weighed almost 4,400 lbs. Talk about being safe in an accident.:laugh:

WHen I went to school at Morehead in the mid-70s, it seemed like almost every freshman girl from the mountains had a black Firebird or a black Trans-Am.

My first car was a 1961 Chevy Impala. My brother owned it and gave it to my dad when he went to the Navy in 1968. My dad gave it to me when I turned 16 in 1970. I had trouble with the defroster. I had it worked on several times but it still didn't work right. I could scrape the frost off but still couldn't see to drive. I drove to school with my head out the window on winter days. I tried to look as cool as possible when I went through town on my way to school, and with my window rolled down on 22 degree mornings, I was.:D

My favorite car I've ever owned was an Audi Quattro. It was 4WD, had a sunroof, and was just the coolest car I'd ever owned. Unfortunately, there was no heat or defroster. It was a bit of a challenge driving in the winter with a quilt wrapped around your legs while trying to shift a 5-speed, and scrape the inside of your windshield because breathing created frost on the INSIDE of the windshield.

 

It was the BEST summer car though. :D

A 1976 98 Olds with a massive engine in it. We called it "The Bluesmobile," because, well, it was big and blue. If money were no object, I'd track one down and trick it out.

1973 Chevrolet Vega...
I bought one of those . What a piece of junk !!

Yea, we also had a new 1981 Chevy Vega and had nothing but problems with the power steering unit leaking. Sold it before we went to Germany because we didn't want to ship the car. You never know who can service an American made car overseas if serious issues develope.

1989 4x4 half ton pick up. She has an at home paint job and 217,000 miles on her, but I still drive her each and everyday.

Was it Red/Maroon with holes in the pass floorboard!!!:lol:

mine was a 1976 Datson 280Z school bus yellow with a custom Hawaiian punch "Punchy" on the door. It was a chic magnet and quite the conversation piece. If it only ran as good as it looked....

1988 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe.......in 1994.

1967 Dodge Dart with the slant 6 engine. It had the stick in the column. I paid $75 dollars for it.

 

Cool car...with the "three on the tree" stick, awesome!:thumb:

1979 Buick LeSabre 4D Blue
