Default 1 Owner Rides -Let's see em *don't quote pics

If you're the original owner....let's see em. Please tell us why you bought it and why you're keeping it. The older the better!!!!!



I bought mine Sept 1988......then in 2007 completely restored it. It has 129k miles on it.

Very nice. Your wheels are almost exactly like mine then. Gives me sort of an idea of how my car will look. Do yours have a hidden valve stem? Mine have a valve stem in behind the spokes which I think is going to make brake upgrades hard..

I'm the original owner of my truck, bought in 2004.



I wasn't even alive when my Camaro was built but it has been in the family since new. Does that count?:
