I know the '69 looks green but it's silver reflecting the vegetation.

The 71 Charger has been painted and it's original 383 has been rebuilt but it has sat that way for 4 years............needs the paint buffed out and the trim pieces put back on.

Isn't your 70 GTO a Lemans running a Chevy motor?

Yes, I didn't want to get too confusing. It's a Tempest post coupe. It was the strongest and lightest model much like the T-37. It has a 454 Chevy engine. The interior is mostly stripped and now has racing seats. Gas and battery in the trunk. In other years besides the '70, the front end is quite different. On the '70 just the front bumper is chrome but the same shape as the GTO. Honesty the car scares me, I am going to sell it after I do some improvements. Here's a front shot for comparison.

I knew it wasn't a GTO (I'm a Pontiac guy) and I thought you mentioned you had a Chevy motor in it.

I think Big Chief's original 1970 GTO named The Crow, started as a LeMans. I had a post not long ago asking for suggestions for a paint color.

I always liked the 70 GTO from Two-Lane Blacktop.

Truth is all my cars need something to be perfect.

Love that 97SS. When I was shopping for a 4th Gen I wanted an SS convertible but the dealer basically said I would be waiting forever and a day for it. So I gave up and bought a Z28 Vert instead. Oh well...

I've had that car for a long time. It has every option GM could put on it and then every option SLP could put on it. Some weird options like SS car cover and an extra set of wheels for racing tires. I am so going to get busted for talking about non-Mopars.

You and me both...

In any case, I am truly envious of you and your SS; that's the ultimate 4th gen right there...

I have to say the Camaro BumbleBee is a magnet for kids. It's pretty damn rough like the one from the movie. We take it to car shows, and races. The kids flock to it. We let them sit in it (they can't hurt it) and their parents take pictures of them behind the wheel. Some kids look at it and think it's going to "transform." It's great fun, actually more fun than bringing a fancy car.

Thank you sir. I know they're not the most revered versions of those cars, but growing up in high school I wanted them more than anything so when I had the chance I went out and got all of them lol. You're lucky to have that parking space available to you...
