That is spectacular, look at that interior, it looks perfect!

Only $18,000, you dont REALLY need to buy a house do you?

[JModius1972]

Although I appreciate your taste in the classics, that is BUTT UGLY! :o

What is that? A classic Suburban or something?

[Phil513]

First statement is very wrong.


Second is very correct. ;D

It would be a nice companion piece for my daily transportation...

*shudder*

Not my thing, man. Give me a SS Chevelle or a Boss 429.

I guess for haulage the Suburban would win, though...

;D


That's your daily driver? Wow. :o

[Mark Wein]

;D

my commute is only 2-3 miles and our new house will be even closer so the gas isn't an issue for me. My last car was a 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe and I enjoy driving this much more ;D

[JModius1972]

Oh...it's not the gas at all. What year is it? '66? '68?

You just don't normally see people with vehicles that old as their daily drivers. I guess that's one of the big differences between southern California and southern Ontario. Road salt kills cars dead. :'(

[Mark Wein]

Its a 1965...car can last forever here if they are taken care of...here in Orange there is a huge classic car culture and even just having it sit in front of the studio gets people coming in a asking questions :)

[JModius1972]

Very nice.

My first car when I was 17 was a 1969 Olds Cutlass. It was my dad's that he put up on blocks and kept for me.

That was a hell of a lot of car for a 17 year old. Granted it was only a 350 and not a 454 but it still went like hell.

Unfortunately, my brother wrecked it, so it is no more.

[Phil513]

As i said in the other thread, i had a Buick GS455. yep, with the 455 CID motor, ram air hood and everything.


It was fast. Mighty fast.

[Prages]

My first car was a 1989 Ford Ranger 4x2 with a 2.3L 4 cylinder. It had about 89 screaming horsepower. It was not fast.

Damn thing was a great little truck though. It had 235,000 miles on it when I sold it, and I saw the guy that bought driving it for several years after that.

[Phil513]

I have had just about one of everything over the years. My first car was a Ford Pinto. hahaha.

did you have a gremlin?

[Phil513]

No, hahaha. i havent owned an AMC product, other than a jeep, but it was after chrysler bought it.

My cousin had a gremlin though. It had a straight 6 and three speed stick, and was actually pretty gutsy little car.

[Mark Wein]

My first car was my dads "hand me down" 1984 Mustang LX hatchback. 3.6l V6 and all of the power accessories.

A horrible piece of shit car. >:(

ugly as hell, but the straight 6's were bulletproof ;)

how about a chevette?

[Mark Wein]

Not my thing, man. Give me a SS Chevelle or a Boss 429.

There is a completely cherry Chevelle for sale on my way to work that I pass every day...once again something I would buy if I had the spare cash. People are dumping their "toys" around here and there are tons of deals on cool old cars right now.

No, not a chevette either, i dont know anyone that had one either, though saw them all over the place obviously.

I have had the Pinto, an MGB, a Fiat X-19, Toyota MR2, VW baja bug (with the cloth sunroof, so cool) a VW Manx buggy, three Chevy 4x4s (77 blazer, 77 pickup, 87 Burban), a Ford F-250, Volvo, couple Nissan Sentras, the Buick, various motorcycles, hmmmm, i know im missing some. hahaha

[Phil513]

Oh, The Jeep wrangler, and my current Lexus . . .

Oh yeah, and an '83 Capri RS, which at the time was the same basic body as the Mustang, with the 5.0 liter.

[Mark Wein]

1997-1998 '94 Pontiac Grand Prix

The Mazda and Hyundai were the best of the bunch.

[Mark Wein]

^ I lold. hahahahaha. I see a pattern . . . .


The Hyundais were company lease vehicles...it used to be a sweet deal where you got a low monthly payment, no down or registration they paid the insurance and every 15,000 miles or 12 months they just gave you a new car. The prices have gone up and while the cars are getting better every year after about 5 years you start asking yourself why you don't own anything after all the money you've put out...
