    Sold my T/A and bought something easier to get in and out of

    Well guys I finally did it. I'm 40 now and after having 2 major back surgeries getting in and out of a 4th Gen just wasn't fun. I sold it, put some cash in my pocket and replaced it with this 1964 Chevy Biscayne. It's powered by a 327 and packed with a power glide. It's not a race car or show car, but a super nice cruiser. It's super super solid. The guy I got it from found it in a barn where it had set for 15-20 years. Let me know what you think.

    Some observations...

    1. "Sold my T/A and bought something easier to get in and out of"...I won't lie...first thing I thought of was that you found my ex-girlfriend...

    2. WTF is going on with that headliner...

    3. Looks pretty damn clean...

    4. Hard to give any faults to a '64 Biscuit...nearly a limitless build platform going forward...

    Nice buy...I woulda rather had the T/A...but I can understand the pros/cons for getting this one over the T/A...

    However, after 30 seconds of contemplation, maybe I'd take this one over the T/A...

        If a nice cruiser is what you wanted...you hit the jackpot.

        so much room under the hood.

            That headliner is going to be the first thing to Go. I have no idea what they were thinking. My son said it looks like it was made from a pair of pajama pants. I have 3 kids and a wife so we could never all go in the Trans Am anyway and now we can. The truth is the Trans Am was just fun to drive for about 5 miles then my back would start to hurt. I had only put about 180 miles on the Trans Am all year. This I'll get in drive and enjoy. It's got a soft seat and a ride height that's easy to get into and out of.

                  Nice car! I was hoping you were going to say you bought a 1st or 2nd gen.

                    Very nice! I like that more than the TA you had. I'd say that was a step up and the cash in the pocket is a bonus.
