Me too, a 67 Camaro. It was my "2/Lt student pilot" car. Kept it for 2
years, traded it for 69 Pontiac LeMans for my new wife & a 58 MGA that I drove
daily for 13 years, including daily round trips of over an hour each way in
the Pittsburgh, PA area through snow/ice up & down some significant hills! I
would wear my USAF winter flying suit & USAF parka to keep warm. Ahhh, those
were the days! :-)
