'67 Firebird Sprint 6 OHC

Holy crap. I had a red one with a white hardtop(no vinyl) and a red interior. Automatic of course. What a great car. I delivered pizzas in mine and ended up driving it to Elmira NY from Charlotte NC. I drove it for a winter and traded it to a local for an El Camino and $700. I needed a ride that could handle the horrific Northern weather and he said he would restore and love my Firebird.
I drove out of the guys yard and turned immediately into a parked cars side.

That Firebird is one of my regrets in life. I wish daily that I still had it. Such a beauty.
