... I'd take a few random shots :) ... I have posted pictures of this before but not in a while ... anyway, this is one of Dad's toys ... 1928 Model A 'Sport Coupe' ... and yes, it is as solid as it looks with no fill and it only has about 25,000 miles :)

... and just for kicks :) ... here is a QUICK one of the Topaz ... it is a 1992 XR5 with a V6 and a 5-speed good for low to mid 15 second runs :) ... I bought this ride brand new and it only has 30,000 miles or so in the summer months only ... not many of these babies around :)

... most were (or that is what they were intended for) but this one is all factory with enlarged front and rear sway bars and 15" tires, etc ... the best thing is that it doesn't weigh anything and was designed, IMO, to compete with the Sunbird GT and Cavalier Z24s of the day ... in all actuality, it doesn't have any problems with them ;) or my Grand Am :(

Very cool model A. My grandpa has one that he had sitting in the back of his barn, been going to swap meets and stuff with him to pick up parts. Should be done soon, I'll get picks up when it is!

so you do that over and over, buy a car, then only drive it in the summer. GA isnt the first one.
