Don't laugh guys. I had a 1979 chevy nova 4 door with the straight six. What a dog!!It was a graduation present.Last time I heard that thing was still running and had 200,000 miles on it.I traded it off on a ford escort exp (kinda like a gt only no backseat) after a year.

1954 Ford Fairlane with a V-8 so quiet you thought the engine died when you were sitting at a read light. But the next one was the most beautiful '57 Chevy two door hard top you ever saw. Copper colored, 327.
Gawd I wish I still had that car but I sold it my senior year in high school in 1970.

Mine was a 1970 F-250 with the 360 in it. It was that great old puke green color so she had personalized plates as "PONSCUM"

Ok well I'm really aging myself here. A 1988 Ford Mustang LX convertible with the 2.3 litre engine. It had red/black interior and automatic transmission. I had a whopping 88 horsepower but boy did I think I was cool!

'68 429 T-Bird Suicide doors from the factory, and real old school torque!

Humbled a lot of cars with that land yacht, and shredded (literally) several tires.

Good'ol 1994 Ford Excort Wagon LX.

Cool vehicle for my college days but certainly don't miss the four banger except when I'm at the gas station. Little "I think I can" vehicle got almost 40 MPG while cruising the highway.
