Watching on The History Channel.

Amazing old school muscle cars.

Went to it in 2020, was a blast.

Watched a guy spend $1,000,000 on a custom 575 HP Mustang totally tricked out.

Wonder if the smokin hot girl next to the car came with it?

She probably had as much body work done on her as the Mustang did.

Wonder if the have an auction like Barrett-Jackson for boats?

The auction for girls occurs ever weekend on the corner of Katella and Harbor near Disneyland.

The crazy thing is how much they cost in the 1980's.  I bought my Big Block Nova for $1500 and it was in great shape.  I bought a Mustang Mach 1 for $800 and it ran great, but the body needed a little help.  In any case, i couldn't imagine how much it's worth now.

I have to dig out the old photos of my cars, but I only have my Nova and Firebird pics scanned.  Firebird had a Chevy 400 and Turbo 350 trans.



Nova had a 402 Big Block, Turbo 400 and 12 bolt posi with Strange Axels.  Tarantula manifold and I would swap out the carbs depending if I was racing or cruising.  Either a straight 650 or a 1050 double-pumper.







Pics are at different levels of me modifying it over the years.  Man, I miss those cars, but don't miss having to constantly work on them.
