Bill’s 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge is not just a car; it’s a legend in motion. This one-owner beauty stands out as the only original purchase in the state, making waves—and echoes—through the Big Belt mountains as Bill takes it for a spin. Picture this: the GTO’s exhaust reverberating off mossy cliffs, turning heads and getting thumbs-up from every passerby. It’s not just about the drive; it’s about arriving in style at Carroll College tailgates, where Bill’s son made history as a defensive powerhouse.
After a two-year hiatus, the Dodge Viper returns, now equipped like a luxury sports car and ready to roar. Gone are the plastic curtains and missing door handles of the past; this Viper sports a sleek design with carbon fiber detailing and a roaring 8.4L V10 engine producing 640 hp. With a price under $100,000—if you dodge taxes—the Viper offers Bluetooth, a touch screen, and even a “stop light” timer for wannabe racers. It’s a beast on the road, but a whisper in the cabin—unless those monster tires start talking!
The Oldsmobile Cutlass G2, rolling out from 1964 to ’67, was like your favorite pair of jeans—comfortable, stylish, and always ready for a good time. It grew bigger, flexed a 115-inch wheelbase, and offered a buffet of engine options from the humble Oddfire 225 V6 to the beefy 400 V8. With snazzy options like tilt steering and a remote trunk release, it screamed sophistication. By ’67, it was cruising with disc brakes and optional Turbo-Hydramatic, proving it was more than just a pretty face—it was a highway hero.
In 1966, Chevy II transformed into a sharper, more angular beast with a bolder grill and a semi-fastback flair—like a car determined to make geometry cool. The Nova SS, the top dog, flaunted a 194 cu in inline-six but could flex with any engine, turning it into a muscle car with attitude. By 1967, safety upgrades joined the party, making this ride as safe as it was stylish. Despite these changes, only 8% went for the Nova SS with a V8—proving that not everyone was ready to go full throttle on the highway of life!
