Always loved old cars.  Only 39 now but my first car at 16 was a 1950 Coronet 4 door.  Slow as hell, no radio (except the boom box i carried on the front seat), no power anything but a huge front and back seat.  Which was awesome in high school.  Car fit a ton of guys and it wasn't fast enough to get in trouble so that was cool.  With respect to the girlfriend, it was like having a twin bed in the back which was pretty cool also  :smilielol:.  Perfect for the time and I wish I still had it.  Everything I see one (which isn't alot) I get temped to buy it.

69 Pontiac LeMans. Red with Black vinyl top and red interior. It was sweet and fast! 
I pointed to two old drunks sitting across the bar from us and told my friend
"That's us in 10 years".
He said "That's a mirror, dip-shit!

The first one I bought was a 70 Charger. The first one I drove was a 74 AMC Hornet 2 door fastback, 304/3speed manual. Did you know that bailing wire and 5/16" fuel line makes for a pretty decent inside door handle? Not a very good arm rest though.

It looked like this, only it was dark blue, and not as nice:

First car I ever owned was a Limelight 1970 Plymouth Roadrunner, 383 auto.  Twin Cherry-bomb glass packs and an 8-track player.  My neighbors must have hated me. Mighty hard on tires, too.
