1969 AMC Javelin. I saw my first Corvette in 1976 (the car was a '69). I didn't know what it was but I knew some day I was going to own one. Been in love with the car ever since.

GH53: I might have you beat. Pink with white top '61 Rambler American (the old 'bathtub' body that looked like a pregnant cat) with a flathead-6 and a column shift. The saving grace was that the bench front seat back would recline to make a full-size double bed. Definitely a drive-in machine!!! The oil pan was flattened on the bottom and would only hold about 2/3 of it's normal capacity from hill-hopping….and no, I have no idea why I'm still alive today.

haljensen

'49 Ford 2dr sedan. Flathead V8, 3 on the tree w/overdrive.

Sold it, bought a '46 Ford 2 dr sedan flathead V8 w/'39 3speed floor shift trans (spur gears, no syncros).

Torchsport

1965 Datsun in 1981.
Looked just like this one, but not nearly as "nice".

Koufax

1965 Volvo 122. It was fun to drive but it was the worst piece of junk - I replaced the entire electric system twice. First, bit by bit; then a complete do-over. Then it threw a rod in Connecticut. I had it hauled to a junk yard with only about 65,000 miles on it.

My wife is on her second Volvo. She swears by them. Me, I'm allergic to them.

Not nearly as cool as you guys, an 86 ford escort.

1969 Buick Century station wagon...

scott1094

A 1955 Plymouth Savoy two door sedan. Has a small V8 (259 cu.in.) and probably would have run an 18 second quarter but it sure seemed like a rocket to me. 1st gear only lasted about 6 months and I learned how to slip a clutch real quick..

A $50 4-door `57 Chevy in 1966. Dusky Rose & Ivory. After a fender-bender in the Safeway parking lot it was Dusky Rose, Ivory and a pink left rear door! We had a very small wrecking yard in those days.
