For me it was the Corvette before there was a Camaro or Mustang. When I was 10 or 11 someone brought some car magazines to school and I was trapped in car world from then on. In 1969 I saw my first Camaro Z28 and my heart raced, man what a sight that was. Always wanted a Corvette, but they were just out of reach. Almost bought a Pinto and a 318 Barracuda in 1972 before I decided to save a little more and buy a 1973 Z28 that took over 5 months to come in after I ordered it.
