Just joined the forum, eventually will join the club.
My story
My dad bought me a 70' sedan in 1978 for my first car and my two brothers and I drove it until we were all out of high school, ~84'. Actually my youngest bro managed to roll it and demolished it. I loved that car so much that when I bought anew truck that I argued with my dad about giving it to my bro. I wish I still had it, $125 in 78', to how much now?
Painted mine red, made a fiberglass front spoiler, rear spoiler and extra large "funnel" air scoops. Sent two wheels to a machine shop to have them widened and put wide tires on the back. I don't know how many times I had the motor out, cleaning and painting it. I had custom floor mats made also, and a stereo system that was too much for that little car.
My da also found another sedan for parts and a van. We drove the van for awhile and eventually transfered the motor over to the 2nd sedan, don't recollect what happened to the van or the 2nd car now.
New story
Made the mistake of letting my wife see the pics of the van with the three dogs in it, now she wants to get a van to haul her two 120 lb+ dogs around in.
So, I guess I will be in the market for a van in the near future.

If so. Uh oh!.

Them's some smelly pups.

Huge fun nonetheless. You'll love it!

I'd like to see those old 360 pix. I've had pretty good luck snapping photos with the digital camera of film based pictures. Just have to be carefull of shadows and find the right settings and light.
