I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

"Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comforting to cry in a CORVETTE than in a Kia"
It was in 1978 I borrowed $475 from my brother and bought a 1963 Chevy Impala SS 283 Automatic white exterior with red interior. She was pretty solid with a half primered driver's door and a few small dents that I fixed with a hammer and some Bondo. I replaced the rear back up lights with regular tail lights and wired them in to have 6 functioning tail lights. The car had no wheel covers so I went to the swap meet at the drive-in on the weekend and got a set of '63 SS wheel covers for $20 and then bought some white wall recapped tires, then I was lookin' cool. She sat low cause the shocks were worn and the single glass pack sounded good. It was cool rolling down all the windows being a hard top and playing the stock AM radio on the local oldies request show (KRLA in So. Cal.) on Saturday night. Great memories, thanks!
