I always had nasty chevelles. And camaros. Just not this nice looking. More the patina type before that was in style. It was because I was broke. Spent to much on the motor.
No I just want to be able to snap it sideways on the freeway and play with the hellcats. To me that is what a chevelle was about. I am not a numbers matching guy obviously. When you blow by that fast who can see them anyway,
Honestly I am older I gonna be reasonably sane. No Dukes of Hazzard Stuff going on. You know just take off a little whoops sideways every now and again. And got the balls to back its play unless you got a serious drag car.
Go to the Philmores(Ice cream stand literally) on cruise night. It is just the way this batch of hillbillies are. We all rode dirt bikes in the woods together when we were kids. Now we are all psychotic car nuts. It will be exactly like the rest of the cars there. Look decent and run decent. By our neck of the woods hillbilly standards.
Cops sit side by side in the lot next door and babysit us. Make sure no body gets to frisky LOL.
Go there meet your buddies. Sit in your chairs. Drink sodas and shoot the bull about old times.
Went by the other day. LOL there was a big block 87 impala or caprice. Factory color scheme and interior. Quiet pipes. Wheel tubs and steam roller tires.
This stuff been going on since I can remember. we used to ride out bikes up to watch the street races. It was called the Friches 500 back then. Then it went to the white castles. Then McDonalds on dream street. Hot Rod Magazine did a article about that and Waltons mountain. Now it is meeting at philmores.
It is just the heritage of the part of town I grew up in. It has been a while i miss home. I literally grew up in a house 100 yards from the place. I used to mop floors after they closed as a first job. It was Reeves then but still a Ice Cream stand.
