Dad's Camaro
We went back to Dubuque this weekend to help with some yard work and to sell my Dad's Camaro. I have wanted to fix up that Car for as long as I can remember, and I have always been in to cars, so it was really hard for me to give it up. I finally realized that I can't do anything with it, and it will be a long time before anyone could, so rather than let it continue to rot, we sold it. It made me feel better about it when the buyer was local and seemed to be really excited about it. He said he would send me some pictures of the progress and stuff, so that was cool. He is going to do an all original restoration, because it has so many of the original documents with it. It was a really good buy for him, and I am jealous, but I am very happy that someone is doing something with it, and that it can make someone happy. :) I put a picture of it in my gallery, and I am sure I will be putting up some better ones as soon as I get them off my mom's camera. Dad got this 68 Camaro RS brand new when he was 18 from his grandpa. He had all kinds of stories about it. I remember being picked up from grade school in it, and I remember how happy I was to drive it when we got it running several years back. The guy that bought it has a lot of work ahead of him. It is in pretty sore shape. I look forward to seeing it again!
