Cruisin' Weekend!

I love Cruisin' weekend!  In honor, I wanna post a picture of my first car...it actually not my actual car, but a picture I found on the Internet that looks just like my first car, except mine had black interior:

It's a 1978 Carmine Red Z28.  I went to work when I was 15 at the Middleborough Inn and worked there all through high school.  I had use of my Dad's Plymouth station wagon for work and rode the bus to school (really!).  By the time I graduated I had saved enough to buy her.  It was used and a year old but beautiful.  I think it cost $5995.  Then one day a lady in a big Cadillac smashed into her and drove her into a concrete bridge abutment (I wasn't in it...it's a long story).  Did $4200 worth of damage and it was in the shop for months...never was the same after that.  Then wife and baby came along and I needed a more practical family vehicle so I sold her.  It sure was nice though...


Enjoy Crusin' Weekend.  I'll be hanging around watching all the cars cruise up and down Coastal Highway.  If you see me say hi!
