I had a 77 Malibu Classic. Awesome car, and the front swivel bucket seats were um....
Handy.
Current Ride, 2019 Mustang 5.0 Kona Blue
Others Black 2014 Mustang 5.0 Track Pack
1990 Emerald Green Metallic Mustang LX 5.0 5 speed (Roush Fuel Injected)
1988 Race Red Escort GT 5 speed - Actually very fun to drive - Sold it to my sister and got blamed for everything that went wrong (she bought at 54,000 miles)
1970 Black vinyl top, emerald green metallic Delta 88 2 door - measured the burnout 280 ft with only a 350 Rocket was pretty fast for a full size car.
1968 Primer Rust and Red Plymouth Road Runner (blew up the 383 at 70K miles)
I have been fortunate enough to have had many cars. Some kewl cars, some not, some basic transportation. Have been fortunate to drive Ferraris and Lamborghini's and a Cobra 427. The most difficult car to drive sanely, the Cobra 427.

Mine was a 1969 GTO Judge in Carousel Red (orange). It was an original Ram Air III automatic/TH400 trans with AC, power windows, door locks, lighted vanity mirrors, functional hood scoops, and a Hurst dual gate shifter. According to the copy of the original invoice I obtained this was the original build. There were less than 400 built in this configuration in '69. It was fun.
Still have them. And have no plans for getting rid of them.
I also have a very cool 79 Dodge Little Red Express truck in the wing and a 73 Dodge Charger on the back burner.

Found a pic of my Corvette that i mentioned when i posted pics of my trucks a few posts back
As i said, i love the vintage C-10's i currently have -- but i really dont drive them very much. This machine is an '08 in Atomic Orange -- all Longhorn jokes aside the color is really striking in person
Loved it so much when i had a custom track bike made for velodrome racing, i had to have it painted to match.
But, -- life happens . I had 2 car payments and was facing a drastic reduction in pay in 2019 so had to make a decision between the car or my daily driver truck. Was sad to see it go. A stock Corvette is fast enough to be scary, yet docile enough i would trust my mom to putt around in it -- and 25mpg on the highway
Covid prices are coming down -- its in the back of my mind to just procure a nice C-5 and pay cash for it when i bounce out of the temporary recession i'm in
Completely different category of automobile - but i would give my Town Car a runner up position to the Corvette as a fun car to cruise in --- it too was a victim of my economic recession.
Everything worked and the interior was in immaculate shape (purchased from a retiree who had to stop driving). It was nice to crank up some Yacht Rock and just go for a lazy day cruise
but regarding the trucks -- the best part about old vehicles with vinyl interiors -- is i get to bring my sidekicks along as much as possible !

I would participate in this thread, but I'm pretty sure that I can't afford to. Kinda like the "which watch are you wearing" thread. Both threads just reinforce the feeling that I really need to make more money (or, at least, better financial decisions).
