and that makes me the "new" guy, though these forums are far from new to me. I have been into the classics for 25+ years now, owning more than 12 at last count at some point in time. I have two in the stable right now. Both are '67 Sport Sprint coupes and both are in stages is disrepair/repair. One is am original 289 C-code/C-4 car with color code Q. It is currently in the process of getting a stroked '70 DOVE stuck in it with a C-6 and Detroit Locker N code 9" casing. The other is also a 289 C-code/C-4 car but it is a color code S, which makes it quite rare. It is one of those found in barn stories you have all heard of. Plans for it include a very mild restomod with a beefed up 289 and all bolt on parts to be able to put it back to original one day. I also have a Brand X, so it is probably not as interesting to you as these, but it is a 2006 Pontiac GTO for those inquiring minds.

Here are some links for the blue car as it looked in 1986.

Here is the pink car as I found it in the field...

Well, welcome aboard there Mr. RedRocker..... But I assume that you're not Sammy Hagar.... the original "RedRocker"?

I wish I'd have had the foresight to better document all of the Hot Rods I've owned over the past 30+ years. With the exception of one old dark grainy polaroid of a '65 GTO, I have NO photos of anything I owned prior to 2000. The divorce in 2000 probably didn't help as most of my old crap got kicked to the curb by my ex.

Welcome aboard!

No, just a true Redhead who loves rock n roll and has a few 67 Mustangs. Sammy is also one of my all time favorite fronts and I hardley ever miss one of his shows when in town.

No. If I were picking up the ex...... we'd be standing on the edge of a cliff.... and she wouldn't be smiling.
