The guy with the 81 car was saying he bought the car in 1976 because nobody wanted old racecars. I remember that well. That was after the oil embargo/gas crisis, Ralph Nader, and the 5MPH bumper. People were selling "gas guzzler" for peanuts to buy a Pinto or a Vega or many of the other econoboxes out there. Probably got 2 MPG more than a big block Impala.
