I bought a '66 GTO in 1968 and kept it for over 50 years. I loved that GOAT. I spent thousands updating, improving, rebuilding, and keeping it in magnificent condition. I hit 70, and after that, someone offered me an obscene amount of money for my toy. I kept it garaged but drove it often. I hate that I sold that car, but I know, at 79, the last thing I needed was a car I had boosted to over 500 hp.
Over all those years, when talking about Bessie, I never said VRROOOM or VRROOOM when talking about my toy.
