If you could go back in time, and get one of your old cars back, which one would it be? Which car, are you seriously kicking yourself for ever parting with????
For me, its easy. My 1970 Chevelle SS with its L/88 under the hood. Mother of all muscle cars.
If I could have any of my dad's old cars: his 1949 Hudson, or the Karmann Ghia. Absofriggenlutely.
A 1959 Plymouth Sport Fury. Had one in the '60's. Big beautiful airfoil fins capped with brilliant chrome, dual rear antennae, Sport Deck on trunk lid, right and left outside mirrors, 3-speed push-button transmission, sporttone textured anodized aluminum panel inserts, bubble canopy windshield, 361 cubic in. golden commando engine, factory A/C, torsion bar suspension, transparent glass steering wheel, etc.etc. Bad news is I traded it for a Mustang in "66. GOOD NEWS is I picked up another one in "99 and it's parked out in my garage awaiting that first sunny and salt-free road day.

Those are very nice. I saw one at a Mopar car show a few years back. As you said, it has chrome everywhere... even the inside fenderwells behind the front tires!
I did take some pics; I should look for them and see if I can find them.
My restored 1961 Chevy truck, all it needed was a paint job. I sold it in 1991 because I needed the money.
Another one was my 1984 Ford Mustang GT. I sold it and got a Dodge Daytona in 1997, which was really a Mitsubishi with the Dodge name on it. That was something I regret doing to this day.
