Replying to: lemko (Jan 02, 2009 12:32 pm) it's kind of funny to me to think it was only 23 years old, when last driven, and has been sitting around for over twice that long, since then. i did see a late 70's green tbird today. not quite the same thing.

" If I knew someone who's grandpa had an old car in the garage, and they wanted me to take a look at it, it'd end up being a Chevy Celebrity or something." If it happened to be a '82, the first model year for the Celebrity, you would have discovered Motor Trend's Car Of The Year. Of course, judging from Motor Trend's dismal track record with its cars of the year, that may explain why you chose that model as an example of an unremarkable, forgetable car. Or am I being too kind with those adjectives? |

...not exactly as rare or exciting as a Bug Atlantic but I did see a nicely modified '69ish 510 2-door. It had all the period "street-racer" mods, alloy wheels, big tailpipe, discreet front and trunk spoilers, no bumpers and a nice repaint in a shade of light pastel blue that I thought fitting for a car known as the Bluebird in the JDM. California plates naturally.

Globalization will bring us cars like this The style of bathtub Packard to have Rare Packardbaker This got bid up pretty high Preservation Maybe an Andre-mobile But I think this is more his style Options galore Can't be many of these left Someone went all out Lotsa miles here, still going strong Easy access seats Possibly the worst thing on ebay "Super Duty"...says it all This seller loves old barges |
