Here is my '71 and my '70. The '71 had a Cleveland and FMX. It was a nice riding car. Went down to Wyoming. I have had the '70 since 1980. It is a Cleveland 4 barrel, 4 speed car. Shaker, AM/FM, Grabber Blue with White stripes. F/R Spoilers, 3.50 trac lock and fast! I rebuilt the engine at 160,000 and had a chevy guy do the machine work along with the rods onto new pistons. Well after about 5500 miles number two wrist pin let loose and went into the cylinder wall to water. Wiped out the new cam, oil pump, and bearings. We bored the cylinder out and sleeved it. It's now up to 225,000 with no problems.It's Just a Car!
It takes a real MAN to build a hotrod - and not use chevy power!!?

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
