Who owns a Classic car? 1960's or earlier.

Anyone?

I have 2 1958 Oldsmobiles in various stages of restoration.

1. very nice '69 Firebird

maybe not in the same league as the '50s autos, but loved just the same.

15. Love the Firebirds!

Never had one, but a friend did. I had a 69 Camaro once, for a short while, and drove a '65 Impala SS for a few years back in the early 80's.

60's Muscle cars are totally cool, but getting way too expensive for me to even consider.

2. we like mustangs--we have a 65 and a 70 Mach 1 that we're working on

restoring and of course, I drive a 98. ;)

But I learned how to drive on a 53 Oldsmobile--it was an awesome car--power steering, power brakes, power windows, great radio, air--wow.

1932 MGJ2

4. Not pre-60s, but

I have a 72 Challenger in the garage. Hemi engine, and cherry as hell. The only thing I don't like is the 70s Chrysler shit brown color.

5. Just Triumphs...

... a `63 TR4 awaiting restoration, and a `67 TR4A which will probably end up as a vintage racer. Can't do much on them at the moment, since I'm still working on other Triumphs, slightly newer.

Cheers.

6. I own a 1958 VW Camper Van

:evilgrin: It's not the car I drive anymore since it doesn't
have seatbelts with my son I needed a car with seatbelts.

7. Safari windows?

8. 1966 Corvair Convertible

I got a weakness for ragtops.

9. Unsafe at any speed.

Cool little cars, though.

12. Actually, that applied to 1960-64 Corvairs.

They had a serious design flaw in the drive train that made them susceptible to rollovers. Helping to expose this helped make Nader famous. In the 1965 redesign they included a better drive train and suspension.

13. hahaha!

I stand corrected. Still, it's a quote that sticks with you.

19. The first car I owned

was a '65 white Corvair convertible with a black top. I loved that car!!

14. 1959 Black Caddy

Had the pleasure of cruising about town in my Caddy named "Ike", of course, for 3 years. He had to be put up for adoption so I could move to Miami Beach, and live happily ever after.

16. Ah, the ULTIMATE fin and chrome cruiser!

Love 'em...

17. 1948 willys cj2a

Sort of, I bought it before I went away to University and it never ever got finished past the point of being stripped down. Eventually I sold all the good parts and all that remains is the rusted and wreck body that can't be used, it's home is rested against the barn of a family friend. But technically do I own a classic car?

[DemoTex]

18. None at the present time. I have owned a ...

1969 Land-Rover Series IIA (bug-eyed US model) and a 1965 Porsche 356C. Both were sold fairly recently. Big mistake selling the 356, but that's another story.
