Name Some obscure US Produced Cars Made during the 1970s
My bad. you are right about those years of the Spirit cars. I really wasn't sure of the year of that Nova, it was beat to death by the time I saw it. I really would be surprised if that thing had half the HP claimed. lol- draggin61

Name Some obscure US Produced Cars Made during the 1970s
A lot of memories bouncing around out there right now. Good thread! I remember most all of those cars. The 73-75 pontiac grand am comes to mind for me as I still have one. Though they were rather anemic hp wise, they were fun to drive. Mine is a factory 400 4 speed which is quite rare (1 of...- draggin61

This GNX "clone" had me cracking up!
I wonder if it is a real R/T in the background? If not, I am fooled and would run up and take pictures and fall all over myself like people do to the fake GNx. :biggrin:- draggin61

Your First car you bought out of High School
you sure got that right. I saw it and either didn't have the money or didn't have the storage. Then I got married! lol The GTX was actually my brothers car and had run low-mid 11's at norwalk back in the day. Nothing to sneeze at back then. That was the first car that i ever ripped into (with...- draggin61

Your First car you bought out of High School

Another new guy.
I have had my 84 GN since around 89, it hasn't been driven since 92. It is in need of restoration and I have mostly everything I need to complete the job. The car has 63k on it and is very original.

Proudly say what you do for a living!
Wow thatwas awesome. I grew up listening to my father play his hammond b-3 in the living room, and somewhere have a tape of him playing a Wurlitzer in Chicago. That was very enjoyable, thanks for sharing. I have been trying to learn the guitar for the last 20+ yrs and I can appreciate what...- draggin61

pulling motor this weekend- bellhousing bolt size etc?
Yea, you will definately need longer bolts. I tried to reply from my blackberry, but it didn't get through. I said that I wasn't dure if they were sae or metric, but if the other poster was sure of 9/16 then they would be 3/8-16. As I see from another post that is the correct size.- draggin61

Fad and/or Options that quickly Faded
I remember the caddies in the 60's had the auto dimming headlights. When it worked it was pretty cool. I am surprised they don't still make them. Another would be the FM converters we used to plug into our Am only cars from the 60's and 70's. We would then add a cheapo 8 track player, lol...- draggin61
