Snapped these last Friday. The '69 seemed to be borderline pro touring. The '67-'68 seemed pure resto other than the wheels and exhaust. It sounded sooo good and the ol' dude was rowing a shifter :driver: Not many manual first gens any more.

I've kinda been keeping my eyes out for a clean roller. I can't have a numbers-matching resto cuz I wanna mod it unapologetically.

Nice. When I was in school(1987)kid had just bought from the original owner a 69(?)Firebird convertible with a 400. Car was burgundy with black top, and it was just redone(not restored). Guy had put overstuffed interior panels in it. I don't remember if it was auto or stick, but he paid $4500 for it--back then that wasn't cheap. Beautiful car.

I know where there's a '72 Charger with a Big Block Chrysler in it and OG Cragar wheels with a Dana 40 sitting in the woods. The owner is my dad's uncle and he's letting it sit there and rot ON PURPOSE!!! :mad:

My dad drove it in high school and one day his uncle just decided to park it and not let anyone touch it. The day they got the big block in the car and running, my dad's great grandfather did a quarter mile long burnout outside their house. I can't wait to have a moment like that

Watched this Australian movie the other day and these 2 cars were featured in there so had to share. Also the trailer for the movie below. Worth a watch just to see the donuts in the Falcon and some go kart racing.

"One dollar to look at it, two dollars to touch it, 3 dollars to watch me touch it, 4 dollars to touch it while i touch my toes, 5 dollars to touch it while i touch your toes. Ten dollars for a BJ, 12 dollars for a HJ, 15 dollars for a ZJ."
"Whats a ZJ?"
"If you have to ask big man, you can't afford it."
