Massachusetts, How Many of These Awesome ’80s Cars Did You Own? (photos)

The 1980s were a fun time. A time when kids could go out and not have to worry about being monitored on an app. A time when rollerskating rinks and drive-in theaters were still thriving. It was a simpler time; it was also a time for amazing cars. The 80s were my first memories in Massachusetts when I noticed neighbors who owned classic cars. When I was in high school, one of my friends owned a 1984 Firebird and a 1987 Camero. Those were some times cruising around in those beauties.
