I've had six total if you count parts cars, and own three currently. I bought my 71 when I was 16 years old and still own it today. I have a 70 SS 454 and an 86 SS that I still own. I had a 79 back in the mid eighties, but my sister wanted it, so I sold it to her after owning it two years. I replaced it with the 86 SS. I also had two 71 parts cars, but they are long gone.
