Found this old photo
of my brand new 1978 Camaro. Went all out. No A/C, no Power Windows or Door Locks, and no radio. Although I did have them install the antenna in the windshield ahead of time. All for the total cost of $4840.00. I just paid more for my 65" Samsung.

$4840 in 1978 = $16800 in 2011....still a bargain!

My first car was a 1981 Camaro with a 267 Cubic Inch V8. Last of the 2nd gen body style. What a POS that car was!
