A brief read about it...

You got it!! Back in the day ('67-'70 or so) I liked the SS Camaro, but I simply loved the Z/28. There was nothing like jumping into the Z and cranking it up and hearing those solid lifters, idle lope, and chambered exhaust, head on down the road and crack the secondaries on that 780 Holley and it was pure bliss! Head out for those curvey country roads and appreciate an awesome handling car, was the next best thing to sex.
And if my wife was in a bad mood it was better!
