Default Old stuff

Some more cars I had when I went onto grad school and marriage. I could not find the pictures of the 1969 Camaro that we sold when we got the 1974 Camaro.

While attending grad school in St. Louis, 1976- 1979, Janis and I had a couple of yellow f-bodies. She with a 1974 Camaro Type LT and I a 1976 Trans Am 455 4-speed.

While there we traded in her car for a new 1977 Grand Prix T-top car.

Back in Detroit and now with kids. I just couldn't have an average family truckster. I had a new 1987 Taurus customized with ground effects and blacked out windows. While I got drove a 1984 Z-51 Vette. I could not fit two kids in one bucket seat any more. Plus I had to trailer a 3,500 lb boat or a race car. So the fun daily drivers had to go.

Throw in a few other new daily drivers to replace the Vette: 1986 Mustang GT 5.0, 5 speed convertible, a 1997 Trans Am convertble and 1999 Mustang Anniversary GTO 5 speed convertible.

I natually skiped over the family type cars, a couple of Toronado's, Lincolns. Then the tow vehicals: full size Bronco and Expeditions. There were a few GTO's I bought and sold over the last 20 - 30 years as well.
