’87-88 was a bad year for cars for me. Passed on a ’70 442 convertible with fresh AutoShack 455 hit light in the front for $800. Passed on a rusty ’70 Chevelle with a 12 bolt and 427 tri-power Corvette engine (probably low horse, but still) with a blown head gasket for $600. Had a ’68 GTO with no engine, rally pack dash, and pretty complete other than engine and trans. Sold it for peanuts because my mom wouldn’t let me bring it home. If I had all those today, I would have something. I did buy a ’69 SS Camaro shell that year, kept a few parts, but sold it in ’92 for about nothing. Oh well.
