I noticed people mentioning their rides on a couple of other threads. I thought this would be a fun topic.

Mine is a cobalt blue/silver Harley Davidson Electra Glide Classic sitting out in the parking lot waiting for 6pm to roll around! I'll post a pic when I can find/take one.

I had a chevy truck from the early 60's that I brought to Madison in the late 70's. It was sort of weird being a college kid driving around town in a cracker mobile, and I ended up helping people move shit, but it was fun.

It was sky blue, looked a bit like this one.

My first car was a '67 Plymouth Fury III. My Dad bought it and then told me I owed him the $500 bucks he paid for it...and I did...eventually. Funny...it was blue too...must have been the color of 60s vehicles.

The Fury's were the cars the cops were driving around my home town at the time. Had a friend that had a flashing red light that you could stick on the hood. When I came home from college we use to drive into corn fields at night where we knew high school kids were having beer parties and watch them scatter. Cruel, heh? :mrgreen:

It was my goal to purchase one of these 65 cobras with my father. Unfotunately he is a lazy son of a bitch that would rather work for a living. Instead of hang out with his son and rebuild a car.

Gotta love this 1970 GTO JUDGE!!!

[Deputy Nutz]

Here is a 68 nova. I like'em.

My mom had one of those. I think it might have been a 69 though and it was green.

[Little Whiskey]

nutz have you looked into factory 5. granted it is a kit car. and besides you got a couple young-ins of your own so don't be that "lazy" dad too

[hurleyfan]

I'm a big Mustang fan, would love to own "Eleanor"..

Had to settle for my first car... 1966 Mustang GT Candy Apple Red w/Black Vinyl roof (ever see the Armorall commercial? Same car).. 289 4barrel, Quickshift auto trans.. Man that was a nice car :smile:

You know, that "G" could be mistaken for a Georgia "G". My son has a Green Bay hat with the "G" and a number of people down here have said "Y'all a Georgia fan?". :mrgreen:

[GBRulz]

I hear ya, Mazzin... I'm kinda partial to my own vehicle as well, but my dream ride is an Escalade.

Here in WI license plates are mandatory for front and back, so we can't have cool things like that in front! however, I do have personalized plates of the Packers....

1959 Thunderbird Convertible.....


http://www.familycar.com/Classics/images/59tbird.jpg


We had one growing up, just like this, I learned to drive in this car. My instructions were, "if you scratch it, just stop the car, get out and walk away, don't come back...."

Today, I can parallel park ANYTHING... :mrgreen:

[MJZiggy]

I'm still working on it... :sad:

[Iron Mike]

As soon as I graduated high school I waited on my 1979 Datsun 280ZX.....

[AtlPackFan]

Ok, this is beautiful. The guy that started the topic can't figure out how to post a picture. :oops:

I know this is a bit off topic...my apologies...I have a pic I want to post but no where to upload it so I can link it by the URL. Where do you all upload pics? Are there free sites for storing photos???

[MJZiggy]

I've seen people recommend photobucket.com, but don't know how to do it either.

Is that a quad cab, crew cab, or 2 door? Also what engine do you have under the shirt, i mean hood?

[Little Whiskey]

[Deputy Nutz]

But Whiskey, did you have one of these on the bumper?

http://www.stickergiant.com/Merchant2/imgs/125/xrg253b_125.gif

[Mazzin]

It is a Quad Cab 5.4 liter V8 4x4, but i got the hot mod chip so it accelerates like no ones business, and since that pic gotten the windows fiver percent tinted.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

Mazzin, i like your truck....but i like you even better. :)

Damn....the charger srt8. 425 tire shredding HP. Nice choice. I want one as well, damn near talked my wife into letting me get one. With twins still under one year, she decided it wasn't very practical, or cost efficient means of transportation since I already have a thirsty Ram 1500 quad cab 4x4 (with a hemi of course).
My dream is a '71 Hemi-Cuda convertible with a four speed manual. Oh to dream!

[AtlPackFan]

Not that its going to win any races on the drag strip but wife wants a Saturn Sky when they are released. I would like to see her get a 350Z or Z4 but she has a phobia with what she calls "status" type cars. I just want her in something relatively safe and reliable. Anyone here anything on if GM/Saturn is hitting the mark on this one??? I know they are counting on it being a big seller.

You should also check out this car-

http://www.wallpaper.net.au/wallpaper/automotive/Pontiac%20Solstice%202005%201%20-%201024x768.jpg

its called the ponitact soulstice, it doesnt look bad, but prob. not what your looking for

Nick,

I actually have looked at the Solstice and it looks pretty much like what the Sky is suppose to look like. Since they are both GM vehicles, I wonder how much of the Sky is using Solstice parts?

[mraynrand]

My all-time favorite is the Catalina convertible, preferably, sky-blue

http://photos.velocityjournal.com/images/full/2004/126/pn1960catalina1265398.jpg

I'm not sure which year is the best, but I like the 1960 and 1964 vintage.

[mraynrand]

What are your thoughts on this car. I love it and can afford it now, even with the outrageous $2100 'gas guzzler' tax. Am I out of my mind?

http://dealer.webmakerx.net/Images/Picture/2005/June/lg_2006%20Dodge%20Charger%20SRT8.jpg

[mraynrand]

Mazzin,

Have you seen those Honda commercials where they show the person and the car either with a front view or profile, and the characteristics sort of match. I think you look like your truck, especially the grill work!

(Look, I'm just teasing you a bit. You look very nice, and I'm sure you're looking forward to losing the braces. I just had to post this, against my better judgment, because it was the first thing I thought of when you posted your picture along with your truck)

[mraynrand]

IF it makes you feel any better, this was my college ride:

[oregonpackfan]

I'll always have fond memories of my first car--the family's hand-me-down '65 Rambler Ambassador Station Wagon. Sure it wasn't "manly" but it was my first car and it got me where I wanted to go.

It would be twice as cool if it was a 2 door

http://dealer.webmakerx.net/Images/Picture/2005/June/lg_2006%20Dodge%20Charger%20SRT8.jpg

i think those chargers are a great bargain for how much they bring to the table
425 hp for around 35,000 is a pretty good deal, and they aren't bad on the eyes

the only thing i don't like about them is the 4 doors, this model should be a 2-door imo

[mraynrand]

Thanks for the comments guys. I'd like the 2-door as well, but I gotta haul a coupla kids around the neighborhood. What ticks me off the most about this car (other than the curb weight and gas guzzler tax) is that there is no manual transmission available. I bet I could let 'er out to 70 in second gear!

This has to be the absolute best option for a guy who wants a real car, but is trapped in suburbia and would instantly die if he purchased a crappy-looking, spirit-sapping minivan.
