My first car when I was 14. A 69 Z11 Pace car with a 1964 327 under the hood. I still remember the engine pad info. Still stuck in my mind after 44 years: F0804HA

LOL. I saved every penny back when I was a kid. When all my friends were buying mini-bikes in junior high school and wasting money smoking that reefer in senior high school, I was putting all my pocket change in my savings accounts (back then you get 8+% interest in a savings account!).

Nerdiness pays off sometimes!

----Steve,,,Jake Dykstra (senior), his wife (Birdie), Jan and I were there. Jake had his fairly fresh resto 62 Impala 409 and I had a white 69 El Camino with a low horse 454, and a 400hp Tri-Power set up with (at the time) a new set of 79 Corvette aluminum wheels and tires. I liked that old beast a lot!.....Bill S

Here's me with my second Mopar, a Los Angeles built 70 440+6 4 speed Cuda in 1982. Im wearing my 1981 Street Machine Nationals T-shirt and the car has the 1980 Street Machine Nats license plate frame.

I still got that license plate frame...and none of that hair.
