two door convertible, blue and white please. The automatic transmission version would be about right. That was the "hot car" in the days when I was in high school. My second choice would be a 67 Fairlane, the car I got laid in the first time. I will always have a soft spot for that car.

I have never been a car jock. My whole life I have bought sensible compact cars. Today, I drive a KIA because it does everything I want a car to do.
