Length of time you have owned your car or cars.....

[A383Wing]

This thread was sparked by a member's post in another thread about cudaken's length of time he has had his car. Was just wondering how long members here have owned the car or cars they now own?

I'll start:

Black 66 Charger - owned since March 1974
Cream 66 Charger - Oct. 1995
73 Pontiac Grandville - July 1994
88 Dodge Shadow - June 2001
94 Dakota Sport - Sept. 2005
03 PT Cruiser - Dec 2002
70 Charger 500 (now the Daytona) - March 1996

1974 Charger SE  owned since Feb 1977

[General_01]

Have owned the Bee since April 1989.

[daytona71]

1973 Charger SE owned since new, Dec. 1973

[Ghoste]

Normally only a couple of years or so.  The fastback has managed to duck the want ads for 15 years which is interesting considering I never really wanted it in the first place nor am I all that keen to keep it.  The next one I hope to have around for a very long time.

Mon and Dad brought the 68 Road Runner home on February 1968. I finally talked dad out of her in 1973.

So we have been together for 40 years.

1969 Plymouth Satellite Convertible - 1984
(Saw it at a gas station several days in a row, finally asked the guy working there if he wanted to sell it. "Yeah, $400 & it's yours.")

1971 Plymouth Scamp - 1988
(Parked near it at a supermarket & noticed an older man heading towards it. I complimented the car, he thanked me, then he started it & I knew it was a V8. I asked if he'd ever sell it & surprisingly he said yes. Had 42,000 original miles.)

1968 Dodge Coronet 500 Convertible - 1996
(Local newspaper ad with no price, called & bought it during my lunch break.)

1968 Dodge Charger - 2003
(Found on ebay to build a Charger convertible from the Coronet, but I can't cut up a rust free car with all new sheet metal.)

1970 Plymouth Road Runner Coupe - 2006
(Had wanted another 1970 Plymouth ever since the towing outfit wrecked the GTX I bought & never got to drive. Found this one on Moparts in New Jersey after looking online for a couple of months & inspecting several pieces of s**t for more money.)
