67 convertible that my family has owned since 73, I came home from the hospital in it, and now it is undergoing a complete restoration (see my Vette pics)
03 Jeep Liberty (wife's DD)
05 Subaru Legacy GT (a hoot to drive in the snow, 250 hp spinning all 4 tires through a 5 speed manual)

It's unfortunate that you are experiencing trouble with your 5.3 but while some did have early (less than 5K) piston rattle, the LS series engines are very dependable as a whole. We've got over 100K on our 02 Tahoe and it runs as strong and reliable as they day it rolled off the lot. No noise, leak free, no issues. My truck swap engine was from an 03 that had a questionable history and I have run it pretty hard since I installed it it in 2005.... The LS1 that I am putting in my 61 also had a rough life as I got it from a 40K Camaro rollover.... I don't anticipate any issues.

All I have left in my garage is the 1960 corvette project and my 1955 nomad that I have owned and enjoyed for 30 years. I have driven my nomad in 31 states and have driven it to 22 national nomad conventions. I am looking forward to the day that my corvette can be driven and enjoyed!

My 57
My dad's first car was a turqoise 57 hardtop. I am trying to complete it while he can still enjoy it. Hope to complete by spring.
My dream is to have both my 65 and 57 restored and next to each other in the garage. I am hoping to send them my vette next.

I'm sitting here laughing, 'cuz some of us seem to be living in "parallel universes". Got an LT1 sitting on the floor here, only 4k on it, as it came out of a state trooper Camaro that they managed to roll-over when the car was 2 months old. Maybe the real reason that F-bodies were cancelled was "Camaro-inversion" !
It was originally destined for one of the big Panels, but I wanted more torque and couldn't source headers for a 60-66 C-chassis that would clear the manual transmission linkage for the stock Muncie SM420 (7.0:1 first gear - YEEEHAR !!!). Had planned out PS pump relocation, fuel pump & return-line stuff, but didn't want to fab my own headers. Hence - "stroker 383". Besides...I wanted the torque !!!
It seems that Corvette Forums's "most-owned truck" is "Chevy from 60-72", huh ?

After seeing the independent collections here, especially Bill's vettes, 
i'm suffering from a serious case of "vehicle envy". I know; no know cure, just endure! Dennis

Besides the silver '66 L72, there's a low milage '98 WS LS-1 Trans AM 6spd that gets up and runs, a low milage '92 Merc 500 SL, a Honda, and various fantasies for more....
