Proceeded to find the redline, and discovered what valve float is... David Tracy’s Jeep was cool though! Also, got some free stickers

Why is Ballaban smiling? I thought he hated “boomer cars”?

Aren’ t these late-70s/Early 80s cars more like Gen X? He’s got a Yugo after all.

Did he stop at Torch’s barber on the way down?
Glad everyone had a good time and got together down there. MB looks like he was in good company.

I’m the oldest of the GenX and I was only 15 in 1980 so those are definitely boomer cars. A third gen F-body would be the first ones that an Xer would have really bought new.

Firebirds are a defining moment in GenX life even if we couldn’t drive them at the time.
“ So you boys just stay here and keep your hands on the car until one of my associates arrive. And don’t go home. And don’t go to eat. And don’t play with yourself. Wouldn’t look nice on my highway. You can think about it, but dooon’t do it.”

Gen X is roughly 1965-1980 (you might expand by a few years on either end). So those cars don’t really represent them (they may have gotten those cars used or as hand-me-downs, but they were designed for them, or targeted to them. All that teal in the early ‘90s, that was targeted at gen-Xers.

Sorry I missed you guys out there. The announcement was made too late for me to make it.

Lost sight of the group due to stoplights and stuff. Then I discovered that my shifter wasn’t letting me put the car in park for some reason so I went home. Shame too, I was having fun.

We bought those used, though - the 2nd gen cars were all over the place in the mid-80s.

We’ll see what’s wrong tomorrow when it is light outside . Probably just jammed up on something, old car problems. Yeah! We should have come up with an end plan before we headed out to woodward.

That's true. They're kind of like 55 Chevies that way. One generation bought them new and the next bought them used in high school.

Yep - and besides the 2nd gen F-bodies, mid-70's Cutlasses were the shit in high school, too.
