What are your all time favorite cars

[Willowbilly3]

Cars you have owned and driven, the ones that you liked best.
My list would start with a couple Oldsmobiles, the one I had in high school, a white 64 Cutlass with red bucket seat interior and 4 speed and a 66 442 4 speed car I had a few years later.
Next would be a 59 Belair, just because it was a great car
Then my 72 F250 and close to it the 69 F250 crewcab.
Also I had a 68 Torino GT with a 289 and 3 speed that was an awesome car.

I had several Jeeps over the years. MJs and CJs. About the closest things to being on a motorcycle or roadster with the tops off. A 72 C10 was a great ride too...it was built to run. By the notches on the fenders it was a pretty good sleeper....My 31 has become my daily driver now...gotta admit, it's a blast!

Mine would be my 52 Harley panhead, 37 ford slantback and 1958 olds. Forgot my 1947 Buick torpedo back, all were 2 door cars.

 

[Old Iron]

I had four
A maroon 65 Chevelle SS 300hp 327 4 speed in 1969
Red 61 Vette 283 punched to a 301 4 speed in 1972
Red 67 SS 396 375hp 4 speed Chevelle in 1973
65 GTO pro-street that I have now

If I can ever find one a 67 Impala SS

I've had several cars and trucks I really liked over the years.

No question the best of the best was my 1968 Buick Skylark Convertible, Black on Black.



Not the fastest car I ever owned, not the most expensive, not the most advanced.

What it was, just one Sexy Car. Flying down the road, top down, warm summer night, stars out, driving doesn't get better than that. Reliable too started every time, stopped on a dime. I would have trusted it to Power Tour cross country.

The one I truly regret letting go of.

Long list.....
My second 1967 Mustang, 289 auto, metallic brown coupe.
1977 Firebird Formula, 400 auto, black and gold, t tops.
1984 Ford F150 4wd stepside, 351 W auto, black, kept it 17 years, let my kids rag it out, should have restored it.
1992 Ford Thunderbird Sport, 302 auto, red, had to get rid of to get a larger vehicle to hold two growing boys. Only seen one other like it.
1967 VW Bug, spray bombed candy red, ended up looking purple, just a fun work car.
1966 Chevelle Malibu, black, 283 powerglide. Good car but rust got the trunk floor.
1968 El Camino, red, 327 powerglide. Put motor and tranny in it, but never got to drive it, had to trade it for a semi truck rear end for the first semi I had.
1967/66 Nova, white/red, 327 PG. 67 with 66 front clip, somebody offered stupid money for the body so I let it go.

Probably a few more if I sit and think about them....

Im 42 and have owned 127 cars and trucks. My first car was a 70 firebird 350 i bought off a family friend in 89 for $75.
61 falcon for $125.
My dad gave me a 60 imperial.
59 ford f100 $545.
66 Galaxy $500 390 4 speed.
Invested $7500 in a $450 81 turbo t/a i found in a field. Brand new pearl white paint job destroyed in a parking lot 5 hrs after leaving the garage by a young punk with keys, could still smell the paint. Never had or will ever have a car painted again. It has been 17 years since then and still brings tears to my eyes.

Forgot my 67 gtx. 383 automatic. Garbage truck backed into the right quarter. Insurance company totaled it. Got $800 from them in 1993. Its amazing how much classics have jumped up in price in 23 years. Used to be able to buy chevelles, novas, mustangs and camaros all day long for $500 to $1000. God i need a time machine.

64 Tempest 3 deuces and a 4speed and a 389. Cragar SS wheels. I painted it Sassy Grass Green. A early 70's Plymouth color. Sold it for $850 in 1971 and made a profit. Man I wish I had it now.

Like most here, I've had too many to mention, but the few I miss...

- '54 Chevy PU. Dead stock, really nice shape.
- '64 GMC PU. Was my father's truck, 283/three on the floor, tire burner!
- '72 Vega. 355/PG. (Who invented the "drift car"?)
- '74 Olds Cutlass. '69 455 transplant, not a particularly good looking car, great "sleeper", though. [ddd
- '79 Cadillac Eldo. Loved that car, so did the person who stole it.
- '65 GTO. Tri-Power 389/4 speed. I borrowed the money when I really couldn't afford to... sold it before I made a payment. (In hindsight, I should have sold a kidney.)

- '67 Impala SS. (Dozer? ) 327/4 speed. I painted the car (my favorite color) while attending tech school. I drove it home while the paint was still soft, buzzed the bypass/freeway and roared into the driveway, broke a brake hose and punched my mother's fat Ford LTD in the rear.

The only picture I have... covered in dust, still missing some trim parts and sporting the aforementioned bent nose...
