I have been hanging around on Guru for almost a year and have enjoyed getting to know everyone. I have also enjoyed the help I have gotten with my 90 and continue to get.
I was going through some stuff the other day and found these pictures and thought you might like to see some of the cars I have owned over the last 40 some years. I wished I had most of them back. ![]() TeeBee will like this one. ![]() My first Vette a 65 two top roadster. Great car! ![]() 71 454 390 hp. Lots of fun! ![]() 79 L82 This car burned up in a shop fire. ![]() Found this under a tree in a guys back yard in 1988. Every thing was original. 300 hp 4 speed. ![]() Here is the car at the Concours in Spearfish in 1990. Where it won its class. ![]() Main street show in Spearfish. ![]() Zora liked it! ![]() 88 on another Spearfish run. ![]() 69 Roadrunner. We don't need no stinkin wheel tubs. ![]() Me and the girls with the 55 in a parade. ![]() 55 chevy pickup 327 365 hp vette engine. ![]() Hated this car. It could scare you real quick. ![]() Sturgis 1974. Ahh young and free with a long springer front end. ![]() Sturgis 2005 with my daughter on her High School graduation ride. ![]() Which brings us to where we are at today. Thanks for letting me share.

You're right, that one looks very much like my old 500. Mine was silver with a black vinyl top.....
BTW, I like all the cars you've had...... |

Thanks Ron, I figured out early if I got the family involved then things went a lot smoother when it was time to spend some bucks or go to a car show or run. The kids are gearheads so I figure I did my job. I have 2 daughters one lives in SoCal, one's in college and a son who is 16 and really into Mopars.
