Ever look at the car that is on most advertisements for car shows? Its a 57 Chevy and usually a 2d ht Bel Air!!!!!!!!!!

All time classic from the days when they made a new car look different from last years model.

1969 Camaro - I finally got mine last year, it only took me 5 years to find this one
--90% original sheet metal, original floors, trunk, no rust, just a base car, but looks
like a Z28, good solid car that hasnt been butchered yet, original interior and motor,
decent driver paint job, cant wait till spring.

my fav car I have owned was a sunbeam 67 tiger[Why did I sell that car] if you don't know they were about the size of a MG midget with a 289ford v8 Maxwell Smart drove one now that I think about it he also drove another of my favs a Opel GT.I had also owned a challenger around the same time the tiger was way way more fun to drive.If money was not a issue my all time fav would be a 61 Ferrari GT 250 california(Ferris Bueller] one sold last yr for $10976000.00 world record price for a car .not for me in this life time

Favorite Classic Car?

Well my own of course!!! :)


1969 Firebird 400/TH400

Had since I was 18 and cut my mechanical teeth on it. It's been torn apart for the last few years but its going back together this summer so the wife and I (and eventually the baby) can hit the streets.

Engine is 0.060 over with forged pistons and stock heads that were lightly massaged by a buddy of mine.

Laundry list of work that I've done on it includes trans rebuild(s), hughes converter, B&M shifter, Eaton posi, richmond gears (3.90), moser axles, weld wheels, disc brake conversion (front), moroso drag springs, Competition Engineering front shocks, custom fab'd subframe connnectors, auto meter gauges, hooker headers, flowmaster mufflers, edelbrock intake and carb and blah blah blah. More changes and upgrades to come this summer as it goes back together.

1970 Olds 442 W-30 , 4 speed
1970 Olds Rallye 350, 4 Speed
1970 Olds Cutlass SX

69 Charger, B5 blue with the Magnum 500 wheels.

Eleanore from the movie Gone in 60 seconds would be a very close 2nd.

69 Chevelle SS

Made a trip thru UP in Fall of 1973. Kept the pedal to the floor on the Seney Stretch to clean the plugs off.

1969 chevelle red on the out side and black interior that car to me had my heart from the get go:) also don't lol I liked the Dodge Charger the Dukes of Hazard drove to lol God Old boys doing no harm lol

To many to list all, but my top three, in no particular order, would be '69 Dodge Charger also. I would need two one paint as the General, and one all black. The next one would be a '57 Chevy Belair. And the third would be a '49 Merc chopped, lowered and shaved.
