Thought about a Cobra in 74 when I graduated - figured it wouldn't be very practical without a garage. Then thought about a 67 427/435 Vette. Then realized I was making some money and sold my 70 GTO and bought a new Trans Am. Turned out to be an absolute dog and spent a lot of money to make it run like the GTO.

Although $15,000 may have purchased you a house in Manhattan back in 1969.
They don't have houses there. I lived there in '75, for that amount you got about 6 months rent in a loft.
