My mom's 1973 has been in the family since 1976. Since her passing in 1990, it looks and runs better than ever. Mom would be proud. |

Thanks to Mike, I finally got a photo of my 73 posted.
My mom started drivng at the age of 55 in 1976 and bought this, her first and last car. She passed in 1990 and I stored the car for many years, driving it periodically. Three years ago I pulled the engine, had it rebuilt to exceed Z-28 standards, reinstalled it and added some goodies (2200 rpm torque converter, 3:42 posi, headers, electronic ignition, 2.5" exhaust w/magnaflows, etc). I had the interior & exterior body and (custom) paint restored with ghost striips.
Everytime I drive her I think of how happy my mom would be to see the evolution of her first and only car.
