    No 8 track,stock radio...im still trying to decide if i want to go with the vintage mussel car look. I have the window stickers just cant decide if i want to put them on, i have always liked the shackles, need to find the same hood scoop. (I think Craig S. Has one got to get a hold of him)
    My high school was a big time motor head school, I had the only maverick but several Mustangs, Dusters, Cuddas ,Camaros, Novas, Chevells, one supper "B". The Kalamazoo area was hot spot for mussel cars in the late 70,s early 80,s it would not be uncommon to have 250-350 cars on the main drag Friday and Saturday nights. great place to grow up.
