My 1968 Yenko Camaro. That car paid for quite a bit of my college costs. Most guys in California had never heard of Don Yenko, so had no clue what was under the hood of my baby (427 Vette engine; modified rear end and suspension; fiberglass hood). Add to the fact that girls couldn't drive and I was in drag race heaven -- loved racing in the Valley (San Fernando) for pinks and cash. And it got a whopping 4 miles per gallon with my lead foot. I still miss her.
