Pretty good, I was going to guess around 1964 - not a long hair in sight.

Thats a 66 Chevelle in the far lane; its probably fairly new.

I always enjoy pulling my cam bearings installer tool out even if it's for a 200 6 Ford engine. Going in the Thiokal snowcat machine on the right for my boss. It has seen Mopar engines.
My Dart is enjoying being inside on a heated floor to get new tires and wheels fitted.
The Skylark I am converting to a tuned port injection Camaro engine, not much power but more than it had for my other boss.

Clever. Stripe delete badges on top of stripes.

That one slipped right by me, so thanks for pointing it out Dave. Someone just had to have those beautiful 3-D badges on there!

Pretty much the same sign on my '67 R/T. I know they have different part numbers. I kind of think mine are actually the '69 pieces, because that was what were available when I was doing my car 35 years ago. Time sure flies!

Way cheaper than a working tach!.

Gratiot Auto Supply in Detroit. This is where most of the guys in the London, Ontario went to buy their "go-fast" goodies in the late '60's and early '70's. About a 2 hour drive down the 401 Hwy. and through the Detroit tunnel. The brave (stupid) guys would try to smuggle their purchases across the border, while most of us just declared them and paid the duty.

Most kids Dream Book was the Sears Christmas catalog, my Dream Book was the Gratiot Auto Supply catalog. I built many cars in my head with that catalog, I think I still have it packed away somewhere.

I still have their 1971 catalogue. The prices are crazy!

One of the best Christmas gifts that I can recall....



I had one of these years ago but a dog chewed the heck out of it.



Mac Tonight was from a series of McDonalds TV ads from the late 80s.
I have simple tastes, man....
