Other cars that I have owned over the years:
1974 Buick Century
This was my first car. It was a 1974 Buick Century 350. I had a lot of fun in high school and some of college with it. I had it re-upholstered, pinstriped, I put the Buick Road Wheels on it, and had pretty loud dual exhaust. It was finally beat to death in a hail storm, and I sold it.

1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo
This was my '72 Monte Carlo. I owned it in the early '90's, and it had 50,000 miles on it then. I put dual exhaust and the '67 Rally Wheel Centers on, and I added a correct 8-track AM/FM stereo.

1968 Chevrolet Camaro Convertible
This is a '68 Camaro 327 Convertible. It was unusual because it had air conditioning and a column shifter with no console, but it had the Custom pearl white vinyl interior with bucket seats. It was a nice car. Not really a great car to drive, but it was pretty.

1986 Chevrolet Camaro
This was an '86 Camaro Sport Coupe. It was really nice, and I got a lot of compliments on it, mainly because of the condition. It didn't have many options, and it had a 2.8-liter V6. It was really slow, but really good. Probably the most reliable, best car I ever had.

1995 Chevrolet Monte Carlo SS
This was my '85 Monte Carlo SS. It had a "high-output" 305. It was supposed to be fast in it's day, but I'm sure most 6-cylinder cars now could smoke it. It was really nice, though. I used to do car shows with it, and it was featured in a Monte Carlo parts catalog. I had a chrome air cleaner and valve covers, some neat angled chrome exhaust tips. My friend at Seeburg Muffler did that for me for free.

1987 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible
This was my '87 Corvette Convertible. I always loved these Corvettes, because my dad had them around when I was a kid and I thought they were cool. This was a nice car. The paint was original and very nice, as was the blue leather. It had about 80,000 miles on it when I owned it. I put a factory luggage rack on it (from a '90), a new black canvas top (it came with a white top), Flowmaster exhaust, K&N Filter, a high-performance computer chip, a deal that increased the air flow, and a few other things.

1996 Chevrolet Impala SS
This was my first '96 Impala SS--looked almost exactly like the one I have now! It was just a really nice car and a great road car. When I traded it it had 130,000 miles on it, and I still wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere. These were great cars.

1999 Chevrolet Camaro Z-28 Pace Car
I used to work for a stock car track, so I had several pace cars as company cars. This blue '99 Z-28 was one of them. It was a good car, and never caused us any problems despite the hard use it got at the track. I put about 20,000 miles on it before I gave it back to Chevy. During that time I also had a '97 Z-28, a '98 Monte Carlo, a '99 Monte Carlo, and a 2000 Monte Carlo SS Pace Car Edition. They were all good cars.

1993 Chevrolet Caprice Classic
This was my 1993 Caprice. I lowered it and did some exhaust work and stuff. It was a really good car that had 226,000 miles on it when I traded it off. It was still working great at the time!

2001 Chevrolet Camaro SS
This was the nicest car I've ever owned. It was a 2001 Sunset Orange Metallic Camaro SS with some rare SLP options like the Center-Mounted Exhaust, SLP grill, and chrome wheels. I loved this car, but when we had our first son, it had to go.

1995 Cadillac Fleetwood "FTS V"
This was the '95 Fleetwood I bought when my son was born. It has SS wheels, and some other SS stuff. It was pretty neat--showed up in a couple of magazines and everything! I traded it for my SS.

1961 Chevrolet Corvette
This isn't my car, but I'll put it here anyway. It's my dad's 1961 Corvette. He bought it in 1978, which is when this picture was taken with me standing by it ...
... and here it is a couple of years ago, again with me standing by it. This car is a survivor for sure. Original paint, original spare, it just looks like it did in the 60's with normal wear and tear. It's like a member of the family!
