Re: Got a story of a car you "loved and lost" or sold? Or found ... years later?

I was to young to remember it but when I was 2 years old right after my parents found out
My brother was on his way my dad sold his 1960 impala 2door hardtop he bought the car when he was 14 for $200 in 1972 him and his dad restored the car with a 327 built to 1963 corvette specs he sold the car in August of 1986. He has had a few other classic cars over the years to include a tiger gold 66 gto and a 1962 Pontiac Catalina super duty with the 421 big block and funky 8 lug wheels but go to a car show with him and nothing gets his blood boiling like a 60 Chevy me and my brother have been looking to buy one for him to restore for his retirement gift in about 4 years because he wants one really bad but won't ever buy one on his own because of his kids. My parents both have some connection with the car as they dated in it and in 1980 it was at their wedding.
