My BIL had the white one. Kept it only 3 years and consider that my biggest mistake ever relating to material possessions. |

91 or 92 White I-roc Camero drop top. Later painted an ugly dark green, such a waste.
Also had a few midnight blue Chevy extra cabs destroyed by entitled kids. One was a lowridder with custom Boyd's wheels, the other had a matching pair, one 2, the other 4 wheel drive purchased with his grandmothers estate. Saw both of them wasting away in the back of a local body shop after he decided freebase coke was the way long after that was fashionable. Occasionally the AG/welding shop teacher would bring his sons tubbed 383 Vega to school. Also had an early 40's Plymouth with a Camero sub frame that succomed to insurance fraud. My 56 GMC was in the line up, 4x4 conversion. Still have it, but it was and still is more primer than paint. Also had a Manxx buggy and a Baja supper bug in the mix. Class of 95. |

A buddy had a '72 Impala convertible. We used to cruise back roads drinking Miller ponies and throwing the empties into the ditches. Senior year he sold it to guy two years behind us in class and bought a '78 Z78 with airshocks. What a POS. The guy that bought the Impala hit a deer a month after buying it and totalled it out.
Had another friend that drove a '71 Charger. He was putting new rear ends in it almost monthly. Those were good times. |

Green 1970 Superbird with a 440. But that was just the start. The kids dad owned the local speed shop. The car was anything by street legal. But the local cops pretty much all bought their speed stuff from the dad's shop. No one ran against him but it ws cool to watch a 17 year old kid run times that rivaled the pros.

Class of 84
My one year older sister had it, cheerleader, blonde and likely the best looking girl in our HS ( she was adopted ). Picture Barbie Benton with blonde hair, no shit they could have been twins. Sisters a fat cow now.  66 Mustang coupe my dad and I restored, real pile when it came home, it was beautiful when done. FLAWLESS ruby red metallic paint, Cragar SS chrome wheels with a 289 cobra motor in it. No gawdy bullshit just a really clean classic. She had it for a couple of years and decided she didn't want it anymore so pops offed it and got her a new Honda CRX that she promptly totaled. The douche bag that bought the Mustang wrapped it around a telephone pole drunk 3 months after he bought it, shame he didn't kill himself but you know how drunks are like rubber. Me I had a POS 70 VW bug, cal style bright yellow.

Class of '72, and my best friend Mike had a late 60s (can't remember which year exactly) Plymouth Barracuda Formula S. Man, that thing would fly. His dad owned a repair shop and had bought it with a blown engine. Mike, his dad, and I rebuilt that engine as a shop class project. We got an "A" when it fired up on the first turn of the key.

Graduated '71.
1969 rich kid in the next class (Senior year to my Junior year) shows up with a new Chevy Chevelle SS. A week later rich kid in my class shows up with new Chevy Chevell SS with cowl induction. I would have killed for either one. Had another kid, not rich, a year ahead of me with a Firebird Trans-Am, '69 if I remember correctly. A few years later we became good friends and I helped him with street racing it. Good times. |

Class of 2003
In my opinion the coolest cars that were in the lot were an 03 Cobra, 98 Integra Type R, second gen Ford Lightning, and a FC RX7 Turbo. One kid's dad owned a used dealership and he always had some cool stuff, but usually not for long, he showed up in a Viper for about two weeks. There were also some kids with nice lifted full size trucks. Now the fastest car in the lot was an early 90's Eagle Talon TSI. The AWD one with the 4G63 turbo motor. It was modded heavily and it embarrassed a shitload of people. Namely the modded Mustang crowd. Though looking back there were a bunch of nice Fox bodies that were pretty quick. I had an 89 CRX Si and I miss that car so much. |
