From the internets or a family vehicle? I need to find some pics of my dad's 77 Bird.

Internets, I really love old mopars. Thunderbird or Firebird? There's quite a difference :P

It's too bad that the Trans-Am series had a five liter cap.

Yeah but the series was still awesome. I've always found it ironic the Pontiac Trans Am couldn't compete because its engine was too large.

Lol I figured you'd know I meant Firebird. He wrapped it around a pole while racing a Mustang and replaced it with an 81 Z28.
And I love me some old Mopar too. The 1970 Roadrunner has always been one of my favorite cars.

I was kidding, I figured as much. That is one of the best way for one of those cars to die, I'm glad your dad came out okay. I'm sure Oppo (and I) would love to see some pictures.

He must have at least one somewhere. I'm not sure I've ever even seen it before, but it was his favorite car so there has to be a picture of it.
I have the grille badge off the Z though.

Boiler up!
And why is it that the people who love the old Pontiacs, just so happen to be Mopar or no car as well? (I love them both as well!)

Does Purdue still write "Congratulations!" on the outside of the envelope?

No, they sent me an email :( They sent me a packet yesterday with another PR booklet and "Your future is so bright you are going to need shades" written on it.

Because Pontiac guys and mopar guys have something in common. Both of their cars of choice are for lunatics. Their cars aren't the fastest, cheapest, most economical, etc. But we still like them for some reason.

Actually, they destroked the 340 to get it in. Best series in the history of American Road Racing, IMHO.

I think you know how I feel about Purdue. That said, since you grew up in Lafayette maybe you should try something else. Just my $.02. Any scholarships?
Congrats on the acceptance. Lots of good opportunities there and they WILL kick your ass. They kicked mine.

Yeah. Years ago I was accepted into Purdue, but passed on it to go to the place I'm still at. Considering lately I really do not enjoy this school, and seeing the Grand prix, I'm regretting that decision.
