Recent news from my life. NEW CAR!!

I haven't been able of post new comments in my blog for a while, because I have been extremely busy, well that sounds like an excuse an in some extent it is, but anyway we all have excuses for everything so don't complain.
Since last year a lot of things have happen, I bought a car!!!! yes finally! but not a new one, not by far, I don't like new cars, I'm in love whit classic muscle cars like classic Mustangs, GTO''s, Camaros, etc. So I was looking for a car like that, and after a while of searching whit patience, and after seeing more than two dozen cars, disapointmente after disapointment, I finally found one I like: A metalic green, second generation 1970 SS Camaro. Great car whit a v8 350ci engine, four barrel Rochester Carburator, headers and 3 speed automatic transmition.
The general conditions of the car were excelent, more than I could ever ask for in a 35 year old car, the interior is in beatifull conditions, the seats are kaki/sand color as well as the door panels and dashboard, the console is black as well as the instrumet paddle in the dashboard. Incredible as it is everything in the car works, from the air conditioning to the courtesy interior lights, it´s amazing, of course there are some things that still need to be done in order to restore the car to it´s glory days looks and conditions, but in comparasing whit other cars of the same year and model it is small cosmetic job.
Here are some pictures I took the day after I bought it.

Beautiful car..! It is indeed very hard these days to get a car as old as that in good conditions.I have myself been a huge fan of American muscle cars.There is something that I'd like to call as raw power in these cars,enough to set the roads on fire.Have a great time with your car.Good luck. :)

Muscle cars are great to drive. I too like muscle cars and very fond of their exterior looks. They have a very stylish interior looks and are mostly called as power cars. It feels good while you’re running it on the roads. Congrats for a beautiful car. Thanks for sharing.

Good news. Interesting one. Having a new car is really a nice experience; it becomes more special when the car is our dream car. Having the latest model of a well reputed brand with developed features is a sweet dream of all car lovers. Before buying a new car a person must have the basic knowledge which is helpful to choose a right one.

I really found this blog is very useful. Most of visitors like me definitely get valuable information from this to buy a car whether it may be new or used one. In my point of view battery is a primary necessary part of a car. All car owners have to take care of this by charging, replacing, repairing and maintain it right time. The way of representation of battery problems and its solution is really appreciable. This is essential to know for maintaining cars.
