First car I (and my older bro.) purchased was a 67 Firebird 326HO, 4spd., A/C, P/S all the for $2,100.00 in 1984. We were the third owner. That was the second car my brother purchased, his first was a 68 w/670 heads. Only reason I can remember was trying to find a long branch manifold for it after he hit the R/R tracks to hard/fast it had short exhaust that turned out in front of the wheels and a 7" snorkle hood scoop, couldn't see the right front for crap! I was ruint after that, he bought that one for $1,500.00!!
I'd rather see a rust bucket on the road, than a garage queen anytime!!
