I was driving through Arlington today and stopped to check out the cars at two small garages, almost directly across the street from each other. There were a lot of interesting vehicles, a mix of American, German, and British steel.

I had a '70 Monte Carlo like the one in the first pic. Small block 400 with a ventilated block when I got it, replaced by a crate 350. Bucket seats, floor shift, A/C, rare fiber optic light monitor system... I usually refer to it as "the one that got away."

There's a late '70s Merc (280S) in dark blue that parks in a parking lot by my house almost daily, driven by an oldish gentleman. It's gorgeous, to say the least.

Primrose Yellow Series 2 (69-71) OTS.

Also looks like someone put some eared knock-offs on it. (Those stopped being OEM with the series 2 because safety)

I'm guessing someone at the NTSB watched too much 007

As mentioned, it's a Monte Carlo.

Of all the cars there, the 911 SC was in the best shape by far.
