Message: <blockquote data-quote="BillM" data-source="post: 3623055" data-attributes="member: 45785">My first two cars were, in order, a1966 Pontiac LeMans, and a 1963 Impala SS. Engines were 326cu.in. in the LeMans, and the 327 with camel-bump heads in the Impala. The LeMans blew up the 3rd day I had it, and I wasn't much of a mechanic back then, so I scrapped it.  Found the Impala a few weeks later, and drove it for a year or so, then traded it for some odd-ball artwork a friend had brought back from Thailand. Whenever I think of them, I have to kick myself in the butt. Though my ex probably would have gotten at least one of them if I'd kept them. Last time I priced a '63 Impala SS, a rebuildable chassis would have been about $10K, and a restored car about $50K. I had three kids in grade school at the time, and wasn't allowed to have firearms or hot cars at the time...Bill</blockquote>
