Thought you all would enjoy this line up.

The coupe in the middle was traded for the '68 Vette and '69 Camaro SS 396.

The '68 is 327/350 4 speed, air, p/w etc....Gold Flight winner in 1999 in Burbank and is now back home in SoCal, only has 1884 miles since competed restoration and is just stunning.

The Camaro speaks for itself.....equally as nice

Yes, '56 is mine as well. It's a 210 Hardtop, sold new in Long Beach Ca and was there till 6 years ago. Originally a 6 cylinder 3 speed car. Now, SB, turbo 200 air......and on.

Those are the orginal colors as well.

Thanks for all the compliments, I feel very fortunate and, blessed and wanted to share.

Missing is our 1941 Cadillac 60 Special!

Nice group of cars Love the 68 350 horse and the big block Camaro but it had to be tough to give up the 425 horse 65.

I believe you are correct. The '68 was in Florida and sold to edsvet (in the St. Louis area and also a forum member) sometime in the last 2 years. Ed and I made a deal to trade about 3 weeks ago.

And yes, it was very hard to let the '65 go as I just finished it and 1-1/2 years of effort,

Both Ed and I are very pleased with the arrangement. The '65 is supposed to leave soemtime next week and head east.

You have a great collection. I'm not a mid-year fan, but you traded a big block Corvette for a metal car?

Hi Eric,
Very nice group of cars!
The 56 caught my eye too.
Good luck with your 68.
