Those lines... Best in the business. You gotta ask why chrysler and edsel were even showing up at the dance with their abominations, while GM was making icons like this, the Impala, Corvette. Living with one is another thing. I owned a 65 caddy hearse for 4 years a couple decades ago, and drove a buddys 69 deville convertible extensively when I was in the navy, which is a coincidence because if you closed your eyes it was easy to mistake its handling for being back on the ship. Which was the USS Coral Sea, an aircraft carrier. I can only imagine the previous generation was even worse.
what he said .. i looked at one in 1974 with a knock in the engine at a local car lot .. they wanted 25 hundred bucks .. i bought a 428 r code instead ..
You guys are a lot fancier than I was when I was a kid. My pick is a big red firetruck. Oh wait, change that to a dump truck. No, I changed my mind again. I really want an Oscar Meyer Weinermobile! Yeah, let's go with that!
Same here. I didn't want any particular car when "growing up".
Now I will say the last year of Toyota FJ40, think it was '83 or '84. That would put me in my twenties at the time as a new vehicle.
i remember asking my boys (three sons) when they were in middle school or thereabouts, what kind of car they wanted. The first two had answers. my third son promptly answered "It hasn't been invented yet" and he drew it for me and described it.
As a young teen, I was obsessed with the VW Cabriolet Convertible (mid-late '80s). I think Donna or Kelly from 90210 drove one, so that would explain why.
I even had my mother sign a contract, promising to get me one if I made certain/good grades. I met my goal, but she never did fulfill her end of the bargain. Hmmmm, perhaps I should call her out on it now? lol
