Mine is a Chevrolet El Camino,it's a car,it's a truck,you can fix it.
I’m sure there’s older ones that kill it power wise, but for beauty:
My 1994 z28 camaro convertible black in/out leather.
Test drove it and felt like I was in a rocket :)
Just seeing her when I came home from work made me happy :)
Had a ride in a 1965 Pontiac GTO with triple carbs. The guy put a ten dollar bill on the dash and said if I could get it when he accelerated it was mine. Big Nope. I thought my Airbus had acceleration. WOW!

The 1969 Z-28 Camaro. DZ 302ci, 4 speed Muncie, 3:43 rear.
‘66-69 Pontiac GTO.
Those are going up in value,kids in 1994 are now 23.
The 1969 Dodge Charter.
The 500 and Daytona had improved aerodynamics, which were primarily a flush grille and back light on the 500, but were radical on the Daytona, which had a Cd (coefficient of drag) of 0.29, a number not bettered on production cars for many decades. Both cars had the 440 Magnum as standard equipment, with the 2X4-BBl 426 Hemi as the only engine option. I preferred the hemi as the 440 had a tendency to “bog” on launch. The Daytona set a world closed-course record of 200.45 MPH at Talladega, Alabama in March, 1970, in a car that had been stolen on the streets of Los Angeles and recovered by the LAPD.
I personally road in a hemi in Los Angeles, one with a holly three on it, and we went from 50 to 140 on a freeway on ramp. (And burned a quarter tank of gas)

It's hard to explain... you see, the best chassis is mid-engine, one of the best bang-for-buck muscle engines is an LS-X (LS-3, LS-7, LS-9)... you know, easy 500+ horsepower, aluminum, $19.00 oil changes...
Well, to cut to the chase, just look...
I'm a fan of German cars and American muscle... these guys took the best muscle car engine and paired it up with the best sports car design ever built (that's a daily driver and within most budgets.)
Voila... pure Sacrilege !
ENJOY!
1969 Ford Torino GT Fastback in candy apple red, 390 4V with Cragars and dual Thrush! Much fun! Back in the late 70’s!

Of course, I’m also the former owner of a ‘69 Camaro... after going through 3 engines, I sold it.
I once owned a 1967 Sunfire yellow 350 hp Corvette Stingray roadster with a black convertible top. I still revisit that car in dreams. With the large down payment I made, my montbly car insurance cost more than the monthly payments.
1965 Cobra SCJ....sold it when the first
kid was born....
GOD that’s depressing! Where do the years go?
I still see it but don’t own it.
Sold it to older neighbor’s son who will be handing it off to his sons not too shortly.
At least it’s loved.
Bought a Nissan 350z instead of putting 3 or 4 thousand in repairs into the Z28. I should have :(
