I paid $1500 for my 63' Impala with 45,000miles in 1980. Drove it thru high school and colledge. Used it to court my wife. Retired it to a farm shed after diving it back and forth to work for a year. After 5 years in the shed poured gas in it and drove it back up to KC. The car has been part of me for 24 years now.
