Well on the 60 Impala , I bought a 58 White Impala 348 with a turbo Glide tranny , you know the one with the grade retainer GR . Had it about two or three months and the tranny went out, Not a good tranny, So I traded it for the 60 had to pay some boot. Went and rebuilt the engine and everything in the 60 because I run the ******** out of them,LOL Right after that I traded it in for a Brand New 64 Pontiac Bonneville . Got orders in 68 and had to sell it before I went to Nam.

Andy it is a beauty, Love it All my classic cars have to have a big block, It is like the one I told you I had when I was a kid . Mine was only about 6 0r 7 years old when I got it. It had one of those big Case double bladed knives under the seat. I gave it to my dad and when he passed in 1975 I gave it to my Uncle Dads Brother Hubert, When he passed my cousin Bill Hubert's son gave it back to me and I still have it smile Yep she is a beauty, The Hub caps on it I used to put them on lots of my cars, They would get stolen about every couple of weeks, I had insurance and they would replace them LOL

I saw Bill Pinksly last of the original Drifters about a Month before he passed. Loved the Drifters.
My Wife and I went to an Oldies Cruise several Years ago. Paul Revere and the Raiders, Bobby Vee, The Turtles and the Tokens were playing. One each night Loved it smile

You sure have a super collection, as well as all the others. If I had went all German military, my collection would be much much larger also, but I would have soo many empty rooms.
You probably have seen this, but take a look at Dragonman.com. Some pritty nice things.
I still have not tried to load photos to this site, should do it some day.

Yes it is hard to find.
If you get on youtube, try the best armed man in america, or dragonman, you should be able to get there.
He is a class 3 dealer in Colorado Springs Co., been there, it is tooooo much to take in on just one visit.
Best of luck,
Ed
