Default How many Chevelles?

I was just wondering how many Chevelles everyone's owned over the years. Since I was old enough to know what one was, I've always liked them. Unfortunately, in between divorce number one and two, (might have had something to do with Chevelles, you never know) I lost all of my pictures of my early hotrods. Literally, two pictures remain of the dozens I had.

Anyway, I thought it would be fun to see what everyone had for Chevelles over the years. ...or if I was the only sick one in the bunch that was addicted to these cars like crack.

I've had:

(4) 1964 Chevelles
(2) 1965 Chevelles
(1) 1968 Chevelle
(4) 1969 Chevelles
(2) 1970 Chevelles
(1) 1971 Chevelle
(1) 1972 Chevelle

Keep in mind I was a teenager in the late '80's and these cars could be had for $500 or less in driving condition. ....ah, the good 'ole days!

Only the 1, bought it in 2004. Almost bought a used one when I was just out of high school but you know how things go. Waited a long time but I have one now. Not a passion but I do enjoy it plus all the friends I've met because I own it.
