I bought my red SS in October of 1981 in Youngstown, Ohio, just 4 months after I graduating college. It had 72,000 miles on it; the owner swapped out his Cragars on the car for all the original wheels and hubcaps at my request. I had it re-painted in 1984, and back to it's original birth color of Ermine White. Today it has 86,000 miles, and is still runs well and looks good!
