Even though I owned two '57 Chevy coupes and a '59 VW beetle convertible, my favorite was a 1971 Plymouth Satelite with a 318 auto.

Now I just like Park Avenues

(Yes, I know they're discontinued. )

I had two 1969 GTO's. 400CI with 4 speeds. If I had let them rust in my driveway they would be worth 10 times what I sold them for. Who knew?

I had my favorite when I was 17. In 1976 my mom paid $1600 for a '70 Chevy Chevelle SS396 4-speed. Talk about POWER!
In '80 I paid $500 to an older lady for a dark green '69 Malibu; 300HP 350ci, Turbo 350 and a 2.67 12 bolt rear. Totally stock with only 93000 mi on it. Loved that car. Come to think of it, that may have been my favorite.

Cars and trucks are alot of fun and after having since age 15, a 57 chevy pickup, 54 ford F100, 67 GT350 shelby ,66 + 67 GTO the 66 was a wheel stander , 71 elcamino and last a 71 cougar conv. 351C 28,000 original miles that was my baby for 18 years but in the end they took up to much room and the cougar paid for my bike which i ride far more that i drove the cougar so have as much fun as you can with the new toy

I raced motocross in my youth so I owned a 65 ChevyVan. I pulled the six out and slapped a built 327 (hot cam,tunnel ram, headers) laced up to a B&M 350 with a holeshot torque converter. Painted it baby blue with pinstripped flames on the sides with "back alive from 65" airbrushed on. The van was spooky fast to 80 and then became spooky scarey to control. Silly days Always wanted an old goat though.

I waited till I got out of high school and married my sweetie when I bought my 69' Roadrunner in 72'. I loved that car, but then my kid was due so I sold it and bought a "family" car. What an IDIOT I was!

If we had the foresight enought to buy a new car/truck then and store it till today... But instead our testoserone got in the way and the rest is history.
