Somebody stole a blacked-out Silverado out of this driver's driveway, and the insurance check bought a 1977 Monte Carlo instead. It's the daily now. It has the 350 with a four-barrel and 50,187 miles. All of it is original: bench seat, hand-crank windows, AM radio, the factory floor mats, and three ashtrays. It gets 10.2 miles to the gallon.

The radio is AM only. It stays on 1670.
