1970 pontiac gto,ram air 3 motor, no a/c,no power steering, no power brakes(they were drum too), 4 spd,m21, spent hours on body work and rebuilding the motor. i was just out of high school and neede money.....boy i wish i knew then what i know now.....miss that car!!!
Hmmm....missed this thread as it was slightly old. My favorite I think was an old Saab I had several years ago. Loved the thing despite mechanical issues and quirks. I'm currently driving a new Camry (0% finance over 5 years and servicing included made it hard to say no) and although comfortable enough and reliable it really does have no 'soul'.

!970, 351 Cleveland, Mach 1, I ordered just before ending my second trip to Vietnam. Shaker hood scoop, Rear window louvers, Close ratio 4 speed. And still only 20 years old.
Some memories you never forget.
I have had a couple of cars that were my best cars and I just wish I still owned them
first one was a 1965 Dodge Cornet 500 with a 383 magnum and a 4 speed. I rebuilt the
motor and put in all the goodies and it would absolutely shake the ground and rattle all
of the neighbors windows even idling at 2000 RPM's the cam was still lopping and was
still hitting a hard lick. Second was my 1968 Dodge Charger R/T 440 magnum with dual
quad 4bbl carbs and automatic transmission and built to the hilt as the old saying goes.
I could be doing 60 or 70 MPH down the highway and just stomp on the gas and catch
passing gear and it would just start to smoke those size F60 rear tires. I had to put some
Mickey Thompson I believe the size was called F50 tires on the back to ever get traction
on the highway so I could use passing gear and those things were something like 18 or 19"
wide but from a stand still take off it would still smoke them too.

I would say the vehicle that I own right now. I bought my fathers 01 F150 supercab from my Mom after good ol dad died. I cannot say that it has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned but it is the newest and nicest besides being from my dad.
