Mine was a '80 T-Bird with a 302, and a 2 bbl, all of 134 hp when new, i got it in '92. And Sh!t brown outside and in. Not a pic of mine, but you get the idea.
Had to put about 900 into repairs before i could safely drive it, car was free at least. lasted 2 weeks after fixing everything, tranny went BOOM!


My second car was a '79 Lemans, which i still have. This is from when i first got it, it was later lowered back to earth and the 305 was swap for a 454, with a nice set of wheels.

That's one of those cars you wish you still had. They are worth good coin now!
