the first hot rod expierence i felt was in 1968 when an older brother bought a 66 galixie with the seven litre 428 and a 4speed ... black on black with bucket seats .. he really enjoyed frying the tires on that thing although it would`nt outrun anything ..a few years later he was drafted to vietnam .. the car sat for years as he decided to make a career of the military..this is`nt one of those stories where the son gits killed and the car sits forever although i know of such a few .. he just lost interest of it and it soon dissapeared .. when he would come home for a brief visit i would always have to let him borrow one of my hot rods so he could have a bit of an adrenalin rush .. another brother was into mustangs and bought one in 65 then traded in every year till 1970 then marriage ended his fun
