[quote=Allan from Fallbrook][quote=flu]Side question. Why didn’t you keep all those legacy american muscle cars? They would have been awesome to run these days.[/quote]
FLU: Don’t remind me. You want a heart breaker? I sold my 1969 Mustang Mach I (428CJ) in 1991 to buy my first house with my first wife.
How much you ask (for the car)? $11,000. Yup. Cherry, too, except for an aftermarket Alpine stereo. Black with gray racing stripes, original hood locks, Rally wheels, interior… Only significant change was pulling the 351 Cleveland and replacing it with the 428CJ (which was really a built up four bolt main 428 Police Interceptor block). I rebadged the quarter panels following.
Broke my heart to sell that car. No longer have the car, the house or the wife. Wheeee![/quote]
I’m soooo sorry to remind you of that. Those things were just amazing. I really like seeing a lot of the old american muscle cars. Unfortunately, these days, either they’re getting junked or they’re ending up on Barrett Jackson (neither of which is reasonably obtainable for me :))
