Wow! 3X2, It's amazing that you found it all those years later. At the very least, you were able to get up close and have another look at it.
Who knows, perhaps you will cross paths with it again,'

Thanks for sharing!

Saw this yesterday on the internet, and they said Buzz was a little too outgoing and flamboyant to be the first man on the moon, wonder why, LOL's! Still super to be the second though.

Circa 1983 my 427/435. I added the Ansen wheels and front spoiler to make it unique at the time.

The parade pic is a 75 my dad drove for a few years as his daily driver. That's my brother on my grandpa's lap. I think I'm on the ebrake console.

I was very happy that my 72 had the same radio *****. I loved those ***** as a kid.

My brother and I would have to ride in the luggage area hot dog style.

He obviously wanted to update his 71.

That mirror wasn't available until calendar year 1974.

The orange car in the background is a Porsche, don't know the story behind that.


Dad racing at what we think is the mid-michigan motorplex, a.ka. Stanton, sometime in the '80s:
