Very nice line-up you have there.  You can host your own car cruise any day of the week.

Thank you.  I love all cars , it's a sickness.  I enjoy bringing them back around as were these that needed some love.  These  three were very solid cars without rust.

The Impala still has the factory red oxide primer on the floors.  The 442 was a Fremont CA build which I found the build sheet when replacing the tank when it had been sitting in a garage for twenty five years.  It still retains the original vinyl top, one repaint.  The Monte SS was bought in Scottsdale AZ, I have the protecto and the build sheet which I have posted previously, never any rust and all original metal.  I also have a '58 Cameo and several other Chevy trucks  and a couple Vettes.  My two remaining builds are the '72 Vista with a W25 hood and my '67 SS/RS Camaro rag that I replaced all GM metal over the counter in the early 1990's when quarters were $239.  I still want a '66 442 post and a '70 442 rag.  Need more garage space, lol.  Peace

Dang, something tells me there is no cure for your "sickness", Kevin - it just gets worse and worse! 😄 Congratulations on your wonderful collection of GM classics!  Glad you are able to give them the love they deserve. You must already have considerable "garage space" to keep all those beauties under roof!

Thank you and others for your kind words.  I sold my first car, a 1959 Vette which I bought at age sixteen for $1500.  The guy who bought it forty years ago still owns it to this day.  That was the only one I let go in order to help with the purchase of my first home.  My son shares my passion and was raised around  cars and their maintenance. He is an A/P for a major airline and has excellent skills, especially crawling under cars, lol.
