    Well, here's my other car outside of my Nissan 4WD truck. Note: not an actual pic of *mine* but it is an accurate representation! The only difference is that I have black trim-paint around the front grille. Dang, one of these days I need to buy a digital camera and post a pic of my personal ride! It's a fun hot-rod! Only 'bout 19,000 of the '69 Z28s produced and there's very few with the original DZ302 engine like mine! 70K original miles and it is a looker! :cool:

    Rocket '88
    Bill Haley


    You may have heard of jalopies,
    You heard the noise they make,
    Let me introduce you to my Rocket '88.
    Yes it's great, just won't wait,
    Everybody likes my Rocket '88.
    Gals will ride in style,
    Movin' all along.

    V-8 motor and this modern design,
    My convertible top and the gals don't mind
    Sportin' with me, ridin' all around town for joy.
    (Spoken) -- Blow your horn, Rocket, blow your horn!

    Step in my Rocket and-a don't be late,
    We're pullin' out about a half-past-eight.
    Goin' on the corner and-a havin' some fun,
    Takin' my Rocket on a long, hot run.
    Ooh, goin' out,
    Oozin' and cruisin' along.

    Now that you've ridden in my Rocket '88,
    I'll be around every night about eight.
    You know it's great, don't be late,
    Everybody likes my Rocket '88.
    Gals will ride in style,
    Movin' all along.

    But, they are paid for!
    So many fine autos, so many roads, so little gas. :)
