..............Best of times..................

Right there with you...

My first car, a 1964 Chevelle SS 283/powerglide....

My sisters first car 1968 Camaro Z28 Clone...

My dad has it worse than all of us... :screwy:

But we will never forget our first cars and always wish we had them back, which I think was my dads plan to be honest.. :thumbup:

It's tough to see those memories again when you lose a friend that shared them with you. :thumbdown:
