I lucked out, my first car was a 1974 GTO.
Still had the shaker hood, but no shaker hood scoop, just a hole in the hood lol.
When i bought it, the previous owners son removed the 400 and dropped a chevy 454. So at least i can say my first car was a nasty *ss big block
Blew up 3 automatic transmissions Before we swapped a muncie M21 which lasted untill i wrecked the car. When i bought it, it had the setup for a manual trans, clutch pedal was just kinda chillin there, but had an automatic Th400 in it. ( Yes i blew up a Th400, it took allot of hard work and abuse).
She was ugly as sin, but faster than hell!
Forgot to mention, i'm only 21, thats why i consider myself lucky to have had a Big block true colors muscle car as my first ride.
