Jeff, Let me know if you'd like my story. Short version: I bought a '70 Camaro in 1997 (while living in PA) for a daily driver.. Drove it till the 350 dropped a valve... In 1998 I Fixed it up with new a Goodwrench 350, converted it to 4 speed.. swapped rear end..etc.. again was daily driver (I was living in Baltimore, MD).. Then, in 2000 I moved to Tulsa, OK and drove the Camaro from PA to OK.. 2 mos after the move I had to sell the Camaro to have some live-on $$ while I got established... Started looking for it the year after I sold it (2001)... Short ending is I found it 2 weeks ago (August, 2014) and bought it back and need to fix it up all over (it's a mess.. just a roller.. paint is shot..etc.) But a majority of the work I had done to it is still there.. it survived having been turned into a drag car intact. Currently I have begun to collect parts for it revival and I'm doing it right this time. It's nice to have the opportunity to finish a project I started over 17yrs ago. The car is home to stay.

Sounds pretty cool to me. Got pics of it from back in the day? When you picked it up? Currently?
