I'm curious as to what years and cars you like the best! My favorite years are early to mid 50's for American and 50's into the mid 60's for English sports cars. I have had so many that I really can't pick a favorite! I liked all of them!
Ok, after much thought I had two cars I will pick favorites out of the ones I owned. For American cars my pick is the 1956 Ford Sunliner convertible. For the British cars the 1953 MGTD. I had more expensive and faster cars, but these two are the ones I liked the best!
I had two 63 Fairlane 500's. One was a hardtop and the other was a sedan. They both had the little 221 V8. My friend had a 64 Fairlane and his had a hot 289 with a 4spd! They were great cars!
Not a '64??? Yeah I know every one says same but in '64 Ford got it right, and that incl the big Galaxies... I like about any of the big Fords from '55 to '66 or so, can tolerate '67 through '70 but don't much care for '71 & newer... Still I'm more of a intermediate guy, besides the '64 I like '66-'71 Fairlane, Ranchero, Torino, Cyclones... As much as I dislike a '65 Fairlane the '65 Comet is a 10+ in my book...
any of a group of American made 2 door sport coups with powerful engines designed for high performance driving from the mid 60's to early 70's
My farther bought me a Wimbledon white 64 Galaxie500 two door hard top w/289 auto in the console.. It was owned by his friend that owned a upholstery shop it had a full tucked & rolled black interior... I was 16 and and looking back, it was the best car I ever owned...
Unless it was added later, only 500XL had consoles... Weren't avail in a 500 even with 4 speed... My '64 500 was Vintage Burgundy, black vinyl interior with 289 & three on the tree... After I owned it about six months converted to 390 & three on tree, a year or so later it got a T-10 BW from another '64...
I've owned close to 200 cars since I started driving, most of them classics and muscle cars......I've got a weak spot for mid 60's midsize and large cars (presently own 65 Biscayne and 64 Gallaxie) but my first car was a 70 Maverick. Two of my favorite cars were my 70 Mach-1 Mustang and 70 440 6-Pack Challenger R/T.....one of my biggest dream cars is a 70 Hemi 'Cuda or Challenger, and I'm a Chevelle fan, and think that the 70 is one of the best looking of the line, and that I presently own a 70 Chevelle wagon....... Though I'd say I generally love American made cars from the 60's and 70's..... if I had to be more specific.....Pony cars and muscle cars from 1970
