I saved all my paper route and strawberry picking from when I was 13 and at 15 (1971) bought a 1964 GTO with a 389 Tri-power with a power glide and it had a 390 open rear end from my uncle in Ky for $800 and had to borrow $100 from my parents with a $15.00 a month payment. Two weeks after I got my license I got nailed for unlawful take off (Smoking the tires) in front of the high school and lost my license for 6 months when I had to go to a court of my piers.

I really wish I kept that car, but I sold it when I got a 70 Z-28 LT1 for graduation in 1974....oh well as they say if we knew then what we know now life would be so much better. I have actually put a request in the GTO forums if anyone knows where this car is and posted the VIN number as I still have a old registration with my Mom's name on it.
