My son and I went to a used car dealer a few miles down the road. They sell alot of vintage iron there...some of it they're REAL proud of. No Frieburger type deals at this place. Here's a few pis of what we saw today...
Here's the dealership.
Here's a nice little Chevy II.
With sinline-six power. $6995 and it's yours.
This one's for Rebeldryver, a 69 Impala.
With (supposed) 327 power. Too bad some dude in NC has already bought it.
One of my personal favorites, here's a 65 Tempest-Camino...or the "Mexicar" as my son calls it.
Back of same car. One of the salesman said a carpenter had owned it, and spent two years putting the body together.
He does all that work, but leaves this in there. The want $7,000 for it.
69 Satellite. She's a rusted/bondo'd 318 car. Smells like the mice have used it for a toilet...
Here's a nice 72 Grand Prix, with Pontiac 400 power. I think the want $6,500 for it.
55 Chevy. $18,000 will take it home.
As you can see, my son likes it.
67 Chevy C-10. Nice looking body, but the interior needs some help.
With BBC power...
I approve!
57 Chevy Bel-Air. They "only" want $22,000 for it...

66 Mustang, with 289 power.
67 Mustang. Funny thing was, my wife started this one a few days ago, listens to it, and asks "What the hell is wrong with it?". What was wrong with it? Inline six power!
I think I look nice behind the wheel (yes, I shaved off my mustache). Can you say Megasquirt/Turbo for the six?
69 Chevelle. It ain't cheap either.
63 T-Bird
68 Vette. My son absolutely loves this car.
Too bad he's only 14, and that $22,000 is a little much for a kid's first car.
96 Formula for $5995. They also had a 96 Trans Am for the same price.
Here's a nice LeMans...
With no engine. She's a 4 speed car. I bet that 5.3 litler would look nice here...
Somewhat rusty Corvair.
But the engine is there...
And for the "WTF???" award, here's a 79 Mercury Ghia (Capri)
Nice Air Stack. Yes, they wan't $1,995 for this turd.
There's a V-8 in there now, but I'm thinking this was a 4 banger car. It also had a manual tranny at one time, as the clutch pedal is still there.
Now ask yourself, why buy this...
when you have all that cool iron there?
