1. '53 Dodge Coronet, referred to at the time as "The Upside Down Bath Tub". Refer to another post of mine in a different thread re: cigarette causing a fire in the back seat........
2. '66 Olds 442. My 2nd car. White, black vinyl top, red bucket seat interior, console, 4 speed - an unusual color combination for a car of that ilk back then. I liked it because it wasn't what everyone else drove at the time - pretty unique. Of all the muscle/sports/collector cars we've had over the course of time, ('65 GTO, another '66 442, '67 '69 '71 Novas, '69 Z-28...same color combo as the 442!, '70 Chevelle SS, seven Corvettes, two street rods), I loved this one the most. Had cars that performed better, rode better, etc. But that 442 will always be #1.
3. '66 Plymouth Fury III. My college 'Money Maker' - generally went back and forth on weekends to see my wife-to-be (and she's still my wife!) and wanted a car that I could jam as many people and luggage into as possible. A couple bucks each way per person helped me pay my way through school!!
4. Better pass on this one.............
