Anyone out there have a classic car to show ? Mine is a 1967 Firebird. 350 c.i. 3 speed auto with power shift. It was ready for the junkyard when i bought it. Took 5 years work and another 5 sitting around getting nothing done. (lol) I just took this picture, it's pretty dirty and hasn't even been started in 5 months.
If I get another one i'd like a 1972 Mach I. What would you buy if you had the chance ?

When I was 18 I had a 1969 Mach 1. I didn't have the Cobra Jet enginge though. Mine had the 351 Windsor, 3 speed manual. I was rear ended spun around and hit head on in that car. I took the insurance money and tried to invest it in the stock market. I lost it all and the car went away  I've regreted that every day since. My CH's started 2 months after that accident. Coincidence???

They were build from 60-62. New price then: 18000$
Now you would need 15.000.000$
Only a few are left.

I kind of like this one.
But I'd settle for 1968 ragtop Camaro Z28.

What would I buy? A '57 Thunderbird. Maybe next year.
What have I bought? How about a '27 Pro Street Roadster.

I think you should donate that Firebird to O.U.C.H. so they can raffle it off. (Of course after I cheat, my name will be the only one in the barrell)

I've got a '57 Chevrolet in the basement.....waiting on it's second restoration. In a storage building rests a '78 Trans Am that I purchased new. It's on the list to be sold this year.....with 57,000 original miles I'm hoping it brings a good price. With that cash in hand, the Chevy will come back to life by this time next year. If I can find the time......
My current holdings don't reflect my real automotive desires....hoping to find the right '69 Plymouth Road Runner or '70-'71 Cuda at a price I can afford.

Blue, I know a guy who has a Firebird exactly like that.
Hey Pat, a Z28 or an RS/SS. (for muscle cars)
Michael I donated tonight, it wasn't much but I donated.
My mid life crisis is here and I don't have any cash LOL

That sucks byoung. Glad you where o.k. though. Nice ride Ronny.
I forgot.... a 57 Chevy would be real nice. That's actually what I would want if I ever sold the bird. You can probably guess my age. Hope you get around to finishing yours Racer.
Thanks for the replies. It's really not THAT great but o.k. for an amature I guess. Still needs some work.
Sorry no can do donatating it to OUCH. My son would kill me. lol
Take care.

I have a 1971 Triumph Spitefire, my latest in a long line of Britsh sports cars.
My dream car, unlike most men, is not a muscle car. It is a 1959 Caddy convertable. You know the one, the one with the big fins, and half way up the fin is two round tail lights! A real beauty!
The other car would be a 20's or 30's vintage car, convertable with a rumple (or is that a rumble seat?) seat.

Little known fact...There is only 1 yup 1 all original '69 GTO judge left in the world....meaning, number perfect with ram-air 5.
I personally would like to have a 71 Monte Carlo with a nice hefty 427. but I'd settle for a 68-69 Chevelle or El Camino. 
Hell if its got a V-8 , rear wheel drive, and was built before 1980 show it to me I just might consider a purchase
