I know this sounds wierd but the car I miss most is my 1979 Belair 2dr sport coupe nothing special but that car was a blast. Had a 400sb with all left over parts I had around the shop, 2.56 rear end, 17" wheels, kind of a hodge podge of a car but what a blast! Ran 14's in the 1/4 and beat out a 5L in king of the hill at Delaware oh the memorie. I dont even know why I sold it but I shure do miss it!notears.gif

Ya I like those two door Belairs too, that rear window looked liked the one they put on the 86 Monte Carlo SS Aero Coupe, which reminds me, hands down, I loved my 1986 Monte Carlo SS.

I had the truck put in my back yard when I came home from hospital and life support (I lost 3days), just as a reminder of how short life can be. I had bought the truck as a factory made to order,90 SC SB 4X4. now you know why I dont drive my cars

My favorite was my 1967 Beaumont SD. Bought it new in march of 1967. Got married in '68, and kept it until 1970. Sold it to get a more practical car for a guy about to start a family. I was sorry I sold it the day it left the yard, until April of 2003 when I bought another one. It took me until april of 2007 to get it to show condition. I'm happy again.This one is here to stay.
