Lets go for a ride

A friend of mine is bringing over his 1970 Chevy Chevelle SS to take for a spin. She’s a two door hardtop with an unforgiving 454 LS5 V-8 and four on the floor. Goddamn it! I do long for the days when a “mans car” was a “mans car”.

Memo to Junior: Fuck you and that POS rice rocket you "drifted" in on!

Damn those were fun! That LS5 will snap your head real nice (the LS6 even more).

I was 15 in 1970 but I had a friend a year older. He bought a '69 Chevelle SS from an "old head" in the neighborhood who'd just won it in a card game. It had the 427 COPO package, with no exterior trim to say it was an SS or a 427. We had some fun racing it on Front Street in Philadelphia back then. Until he crashed it anyway. By then it had a supercharger and everyone knew what was under the hood anyway though.

My first car was a '67 Firebird 400 convertible. Wrecked it. Actually it was while driving with the owner of the Chevelle too. Bought a hot metallic blue '67 GTO 400 H.O. after that. Didn't wreck it. Traded it for a powder blue '64 Impala SS 327 convertible. Didn't wreck it. Went a different direction and traded it on a pair of Cadillacs. A turquoise blue '60 and a lime green '61. Both four door Sedan de Villes.

I used to love trading cars. Going to auctions and making deals on unsold ones. Racing them. Sometimes wrecking them and having to start over.

I miss the days when a man's car was a man's car, and when it was so much fun trading around.

Holy shit Simon! You've had some sweet rides. Those 67 "goats" were cool as hell IMHO.

Jim: I don't blame you Chevy made some great rides in that era.

Terry: I don't have any pics of it. If it were mine I would prolly have a ton.
