Re: My '70 is SOLD (Lasse)
Eric sad to hear you sold your 70. Yours is one I used to convince the wife I needed another to replace the 79. I miss my 96 sometimes, but the insurance payment I don`t miss. You will enjoy the 96. It will go anytime you want it too. Just turn the key and go.
You can change your handle to Eric 96
And I will change my handle to Eddie 70
That should make the c3-c4 forums balance shouldn`t it.

Re: My '70 is SOLD (Eddie 96)
Hi Eric,
Congratulations on the sale of your 70!!! Glad you sold it to a forum member. :cheers: As for the big block and LT-4 Combo, hope the pic in my signiature helps out. I had a 96 C.E., but sold it cause the #'s didn't match. Had to get me another one, they are the ultimate ride. Sad to see your 70 go, but you will get another one. You may want to reconsider the big-block though. As my 70 Lt-1 will smoke my 69 427 and my 96 LT-4. There's a lot to be said for a original LT-1 :cool: :cool: :cool: Not to mention its Multi Point Electronic Edelbrock Pro FLo.!!!!
CONGRATULATIONS,
Jacob

Re: My '70 is SOLD (Eric 70)
:( I guess they have to go at some point. Hopefully I'll be able to pass my 79 down to a son/daughter rather than sell it. But if I never get married or have kids, I've got a few nieces and nephews that would fight over it.
I'm sure you'll like the 96 but you'll also miss the 70.

Re: My '70 is SOLD (sharklover)
I haven't heard from the new owner in a few days! I guess that is a good thing. He is driving from New Orleans to Santa Barbara, California.

Re: My '70 is SOLD (Juliet)
Hey Juliet! Check out my new Forum Name!!!!
I have to wait at least till my oldest daughter goes off to College, and she's only 10yo!!!!
Who knows??? Anything could happen I guess.
I will Email you the new Owner of my '70 name and info so you can update the '70 Registry.
I will miss it alot...I already do! But I am also excited about learning about the '96 LT4 CE. Can't wait to get pictures up, and a Homepage created for it.

Re: My '70 is SOLD (SuperFast80)
Me too...do you think it would be cool with everyone to keep it? It was actually a pretty cool day that I took that picture. I am in the Air Force, and we were working out of Eglin Air Force Base in Fort Walton Florida. That was the last night of the trip and we had a big party out on the beach. Afterwards, we all went out to as many of the clubs we could find along the beach. Everywhere I went, I was given special parking places because of the Vette. I guess you would call it Rock Star treatment.
Many good memories in that '70!!!!

Re: My '70 is SOLD (Eric 96)
First of all, yes keep the avatar its just plain awesome.
Second, are you stationed at Eglin or just there temporarily? My Dad was a Captain the
Air Force a long time ago and was stationed there. Half of my family is from FWB and we
go there all the time. The town is so small that I don't often run across any that has ever
heard of it... Destin on the other hand is another story.... :yesnod:

Re: My '70 is SOLD (rambler323)
I am stationed in New Orleans, but we go to Eglin on TDY alot. I used to drive the car there all the time. Now I'll be in the '96 when I go there.
