when I was 5 or so,my sister was in highschool.She was given a 69 Chevelle by her boyfriends(later to be husband) parents.It was awesome and it was the first muscle car I saw close up.It had cragar 5 spoke wheels and huge wide tires and airshocks.It was badass.She put a 13" 3 spoke steering wheel and a chrome barefoot gaspedal in it.She had that car for 15 years. She went through fenders and tires and even a set of heads..The car was on it's last leg and she didn't have the room for it any longer so she parted with it..I have been working on my 1982 malibu wagon for about 2 years and was at her house one day last week for a visit.She noticed I had bought a barefoot pedal for my car and giggled..She said " I still have the one from my Chevelle." I was like NO WAY!!! she went to the garage and returned with it..I was stoked..It was probably as old as I am. (30).needless to say..I removed the new one..and replaced it with the worn and oxidized one..It's been in the family..for 25 years..lol and been on 2 malibus..Anyone have a similar story??
