Looking for my dads old GTX. It was sold back in 1974 and tracked it here to texas and lost the trail. If you have one or know where one is , I would like to talk to ya. It was Red with black bucket interrior 440. Call Bill at 817-489-8906 or email your # and a good time to reach you. I have a couple of 69 cars I would even trade.

Hope he has better luck than we have had finding my dads 70 Charger. I posted ads looking for the car for probably 4-5 years and never got one response. Same thing when I trying to find my 71 Demon 340 which was a factory hood scoop and rear wing car in a rather unusual color (Gold). I have not given up hope, maybe one of these days I hope to stumble across them again.

Not to help the story at all....bud I found my 1979 Monte Carlo in a wrecking yard in Grand Prairie about 7 years after we sold it...and I found my 95 CBR600F3 at Bates Garland about 6 months after I sold it.

That's one of my Dad's favorite cars. If he last heard of it in 74 it's probably long gone. I'd pay a nice finders fee for my Dad's '66 Coronet he bought brand new. Dark green, black bench, 383/727. Or his 67 rs/ss Bolero red 350/4 speed Camaro. It was optioned identical to the Hot Rod magazine "test car" that has been owned by Jim McFarland/Vic Edelbrock since new, except his had the hideaway headlights(rs package). One of the best stories my Dad told me was blowing-up the motor in the Camaro @ 120 MPH on 75 in Plano in 71. Problem was, he couldn't find a 350 in a junkyard. Had to get a 327 from a 64 Impala. He also told me that having a cowl hood just means when you blow-up the motor you're gonna get oil on your windshield.

I know. But this was 1971. The 350 wasn't widely available 'til '68. I believe in 67 the 350 debuted in the Camaro and was a Camaro-only option. So finding a motor that's only been around ~3-4 years in a local junkyard before the Internet was around isn't the easiest thing to do!
