That's hilarious.............Same look as the wife has when I show her the new ones.9which I`ll have in app.10 years.
They are relativeley cheap (I think anyways) while some of those cars can be awful expensive.

I preferred the old Mopar muscle cars but I liked a lot of other rides, too.

My oldest brother once had a Cutlass Supreme. Not certain of the year but I wanna say 72 or 73:

His was hardtop, though. Man, that thing would fly.

An old HS chum which happened to be my nneighbor had an old Super Bee................Not sure of the year,but it was damn cool.
Every now and then when I see him,he tells me he`d like to kick himself in the ass for getting rid of it......
It kinda looked like this one,but a different color:

sweeeeeett...loved those Barracudas, Road Runners, Coronets, Daytonas, Challengers, Chargers, Valiants, Dusters, Demons...

My first car was a 70 Dart. Blue, with a white vinyl top. It was pretty stock, no cowl hood or spoilers, not a Swinger model, but had the 318. Kinda like this one

Thats awesome..........ever wish you had it back?

Every day...my dad made me give it up after about a year, because he said we "can't get the title." I was like, "how the fuck did I buy the damn thing to begin with?" I had sunk a lot of money into rebuilding the engine and restoring the interior.

Honestly, I think he sold it to buy alcohol, but I only came to that conclusion much later in life. When you're 17 your dad is god, and you do what he says.

Damn dude..........that's horrible.
What would it take to get another one?

I'd probably have to move out of the City for one thing. No way I'd drive a classic up here. Plus, my kids would probably need to be grown and out of the house. I'm not sharing.

This was my first actual muscle car:

A fellow Pontiac Man

I bought this New in 1977
