Over the years I have written about this car. The car is 55 YO. and I originally purchased 45 years ago. Time literally flies when you are having fun, which this hobby has provided me along with a host of friends and memories.

October Birthday unrestored Chevelles.

10B Fremont Concours wagon, from Starksen Chevy, Lancaster CA. Purchased from OO in 1990 and drove home.
Was at MCACN 2022 with a tow bar to Jeff Helm's incredible tunnel ram L88 '67 Super Sport.

10C Atlanta SS396, from Burkholder Chev-Olds, Centre AL. OO traded for a new Corvette 2009.
MCACN 2014 Vintage Certified "Legend" 93%. Subject of a "Member's Rides" by Bruce.

10D Leads (Kansas City) SS396, from Lahmann Chevy, Denver IA. The one that started it all for me, my first car, Day 2 since Day 2, inspiring my handle here, "67since67".
MCACN 2016 "Real Day 2 Invitational", Day 2 Concours Gold, Musclecar Review cover car November 2017. Look for it next month in the "Cars You Drove in High School" display.

New best: 9.56 @ 139 mph during testing at Milan Dragway.

Happy Birthday to my Camaro. I’ve owned this pile for 36 years. I got it when I was 15 years old. Hundreds of miles of burnouts in this car
