Will Chevy build anything like this any more or will it be the Obamamobile?

OMG! Are those great! Thanks.

The fact that people can still think like this and that these bilboards aren't illegal means there's hope for America.

Does this make up for it?

My neighbor just got a silver one that is pretty hot. I would but I owe Ford my next couple of buys. Their stock treated me well when they refused the bailout.

Thanks, seems like a million years ago. When I was in high school my best friends drove a 68 Camaro, a 68 GTO, and a 65 vette. Those were the days. My dad had a 69 LTD with a 390 under the hood. V8’s were the rule not the exception.

You know how at a funeral, you always try to say something nice about the dearly departed? Well, these billboards say it all. Lots of wonderful memories remain.
