A 1967 SS was too much for a 16 year old, but it would be perfect for a 46 year old, I still wish I would have kept that car……

My first was a 1966 GTO - gold with black leather interior, wood trim….probably a little bit too much for me as well, but I’m with ya - wish I’d have kept mine too.

I love my Dad dearly, but two of his biggest mistakes ever concerned cars. He sold his black 57 Chevy Bel Aire for pennies in 1967—despite my brothers’ wailing. Later, in 75, he sold his 1969 Ford Falcon for virtually nothing (instead of giving it to me!) To his credit, he knew a hell of a lot more about stocks and real estate than cars.
