I used to live in Tonawanda off Kenmore avenue. I worked close to the GM Tonawanda engine plant and drove my loud-azz black '69 Z/28 back and forth to work every day back then unless it was snowing.
I havent been there in maybe 17 years but that article was fun for me to read. The first part of the article anyway. Brings back memories. Thank you very much for the post. -Mark. |

I'm glad you liked it.
Perhaps you used to rattle those windows in Tonawanda. I see you have a diiferent Camaro now. Those badboys are why I lost my mind when GM said no BLUE SS. So nice they added it now. Blue with white stripes, oh the memories. Dan |

Same car, different color back then. I had it painted black and white at the time. Yes I did rattle a few windows with it. I had Eagle headers with Thrush Super Turbo header mufflers and no tailpipes. You could hear it rumble from blocks away.
Here is a "back in the day" picture of it. -Mark. |
