I do too, I have been looking for the last several years, but this one dropped in my lap. I paid $700 for her not knowing if the engine was good. I put a Holley 4 bbl on her and she purrs like a kitten. Well more like a PISSED OFF LION

I paid $90 for my first one in 74, bought it at a gas station in Aurora Co. I only had it for 2 weeks, when the police asked my dad if he knew anything about it,(i had been parking it around the corner form the house, I was 14, and had no legal reason to be driving) They said it was reported leaving the seen of an arson 3 weeks ago.......Dad was besides himself when he found out, he didn't know weather to be Pissed or impressed (I did get it running good) still ended up on restriction. And at my fathers blessing, the Aurora PD removed my car.

I was a chevy guy in my youth, well up until a salesman told me the 1/2 ton truck was as good as a 3/4 (he didn't have any 3/4's) it just pissed me off enough to buy a dodge!
But any way, I just loved the sound of the Cleveland.....It's like a jet engine, and fast!

How long did you live in Aurora? Lived there in 75-78 but doubt you knew me. unless you hung out with 5-8 yeas olds... I went to Whiteman elementary...
still can recall their school song too.. 3 cheers whiteman schools here's to you.... we will always be loyal and true..
I get THAT kinda crap stuck in my head but forget when wifey tells me to switch the clothes..

My dad had a 71' Pontiac Catalina w/the .400, that 4-door was a monster. I used to take the car w/o permission and run over metal trashcans/bike racks and such back in H.S.
