Bought a 1968 Buick GS400 Stage 1, yes a Stage 1 in 1968. However ended up joining the service in 1969 and my Dad took over the payments and kept the car, Returned in 1971 and tried to by a Corvette, could not as factory was on strike, so bought this 427 Camaro made by a guy named Yenko, had know idea who or what the car was. Solid it in 1974 to buy a 1974 Fiat X 1/9, which I really liked as I was just getting into road racing and that was a great road racing car.....But I will say this, the Buick GS400 was a VERY under rated car back then, and NO Chevelle or Malibu SS or even GT or Stang came close to beating it at the drag strip....Was a VERY FAST car in the quarter mile....
My first car was a 1962 Impala SS. It was just a 283 2bbl. with a 2 speed Powerglide. I was 15 years old and bought it for 50 bucks! Funny, I paid double that a few years ago for a 1/24 scale model of that car!
