I have pictures of the goat some where, and I know I never took one picture of that disgusting pacer!
This story is like the ultimate vehicular nut-kick.

1976 Coupe Deville 500CI Triple black, bought with 47k orig. Car was a gem.

1975 Delta 88 Convertible. 350CI Bought with 39k orig miles. Same exact car as pic

1981 Buick Lesabre (was my daily driver for a while). Black with maroon velour. Had low miles and was nice until my buddy smashed it drunk one night.....

Not hot rods at all. Just clean cruisers. Still had the T/A's for hot rodding during that time. I owned these cars from mid 90s to 2000ish.
LOL,,,,I had a blue 81 Lesabre like yours !!!!

Man I don't want to start thinking about all the cars I have been through !!

The only thing better would have been a white angled stripe.

Come to think of it...

Was the Starsky and Hutch Ford Torino the first 90MPH paint job?!?
