This my friends was my car in high school. This was the bonus when your Dad owned an auto body shop. This car was sweeeeeeeeeet. Damn. I stumbled on some photos of it and had a total guy moment. You know how guys stand around and look at things? I did that. My dad and I restored this 69' SS Camero. We actually went to look at a dog, we came home with a Siberian Huskey named Loopy and I bought this car. It was in pretty tough shape but it came with a whole bunch of new pieces. I drove around a lot and I never broke the speed limit;) It had a top notch Pioneer stereo system and I would CRANK Lover Boy! Oh the 80's and waitressing at a truck stop after school; seems like yesterday.


Got nothin' on my '71 Ford E100 Baby!

It's so cool that you and your dad restored this baby together. Yeah, there's nothing like an awesome car stereo in your awesome ride. Indeed, the 80s was a blast!
