One picture says it all !
Found this picture while searching for something else and wow it has been 47 years since it was taken!
Yep me and my wife back in April or May of 1974 before we were married. We still going strong with the 46th anniversary coming up in September.
Would love to go back and do it again!

Nice shot
You can tell a lot about the character of a man...
by the way he treats those who can do nothing for him.
I don't look back at the things I can no longer do, I just look forward to the things I still can.

I had recently bought a new 1974 Z/28 Camaro and think that picture was a road trip to the Blue Ridge Mts. I was in my 2nd year of Tool&Die Apprenticeship.

Very nice couple, Forty, know you're proud.
I rarely ever buy a rifle, but when I do, it's a Henry.

Somehow we meshed together very well over the years!

Just a couple of 70's kids still hanging out together. It takes a lot of hard work to keep it going. You guys are doing a great job.

Re: One picture says it all !
Thanks! I added the Pontiac T/A shaker scoop by making a baseplate for the air filter and cutting the hole in the hood. Other things were to bring the
350 L-82 engine up to the 1970 Z/28 LT-1 engine specs with the then new angle plug heads and the solid lifter cam and factory LT-1 intake manifold.
We bought a new 1977 Pontiac Can Am based on the Lemans Sport Coupe which had the T/A 6.6 engine also back in 1977. Only about 1000 or so were made before a tooling issue for the rear spoiler cancelled production. Did some tuning on that one and it ran well.
