Congrats on the SS. I love mine. My '09 is bone stock. Going for the Trifecta tune with CJ in a few weeks - before it gets nice out.
I owned a '62 Greenbriar back in the day. That thing would climb hills.
Last night they rebuilt a Greenbriar on a TV show (forget the name). They chopped the top about 3 inches. Added a second set of rear tailingts. I think they had a V-8 in the rear. I was disappointed - they didn't show a lot of the work.
Some GM cars have owned:
1941 Chevy Master
1948 Pontiac Business Coupe
1953 Chevy Convertible
1955 Chevy 2 dr
1957 Pontiac Chieftan 2 dr.
1962 Greenbriar
1965 Buick LeSabre Convertible
and many,many others. At one time I had 13 cars in and behind the barn.
Tried to buy a whole junkyard one time. Some of the cars went back into the 1930s. That deal fell through.
Have fun with that SS.

just getting into the HHR family. picking up a 2008 SS. next week. had the opportunity to drive one for a bit and decided that this was the way to go. zero mods and bone stock. what are the suggested "easy" mods? FYI currently a harley softail guy and understand the typical AC, exhaust, tuner stuff, imagine there are favorable combinations. oddly enough I've played with an early chevy chevette turbo, (1976 fiberglass hood, Garrett air turbo, 1.6 l very custom) and plenty of corvair's (1964 convertible @ greenbrier). can't wait for the next chapter of of bow tie fun.
