My sister's boyfriend, in high school, bought a brand new '69 Camaro Z28 RS for his first car. After he totalled it, he replaced it with a brand new solid black 69 Nova SS. A couple of very sharp rides, indeed. Another friend of my sister's bought a brand new Chevelle 396 SS. We almost bought the farm in that sucker when he was driving a bunch of us to Beech Bend Park for a day of fun. That was back in the heyday of Beech Bend, when the Winston Cup drags were being held there. The drags were fun, but the figure eight races were more interesting.
