Thanks. Here is a bit more recent pic of her with it. I love the fact that my wife is a car nut. It's got just a bit over 80k original miles, and was fully restored for her 16th birthday. For now, it resides with her folks since they have a 4 car garage. We've been looking for a place with a 3 or 4 car, but haven't found anything that we like, and are willing to pay for.
That's the one. I forget exactly which year. Probably about a 79 or 80. He use to haul ass down the curvy Arkansas roads and highways so fast, I swear I could feel the body on that thing flexing. I don't know how that thing always clung to the road, but it did.
That's a '76 in the pic, with a fire breathing 350 4bbl making, IIRC, all of 165 hp. I traded a '71 Challenger RT 'vert (340, 4 speed) in on that car at a local Chevy dealer (Stovall, in Burleson at the time). Not sure what the hell I was thinking, but it seemed to revolve around a car with power steering, brakes and air conditioning, versus a car that the GF hated to ride in.

Here is the 1980 model. It doesn't look much different.

Worst decision you ever made? lol, that really sucks man. I'm sure it made sense at the time though.
