[ronnykmarshall]

Ya know, one of them big ol' boats that used to sail out of Detriot!

Here's two of mine :



1970 Impala ..... The car I learned to drive in.



1959 Caddy ..... the best fins on the road!

[GOPisEvil]

1. The 1966 Chevy Impala.

My dad had one when I was born, and I owned one myself later.

Dad's looked like this:

[Az]

3. Thats the damn car that folded my RX7 in half!

:grr:

[GOPisEvil]

7. Well...I wasn't driving!!

Neither was my dad!!!

Promise.

Sorry about your car though. :(

[Az]

11. It was terrible

It happened on my Bday. I was turning left he was turning left the other way. I got to the island and stopped. The sun was behind me and he wasn't looking. Took off fast and just piled right into me.

Folded my poor lil RX7 in half. Barely a nick on his car. Only satisfaction was that a piece of my engine sheared off and went through his engine block. Wound up totalling his car as well.

[GOPisEvil]

13. Damn...that sucks.

As much as I loved that car, I'd never get another one. I still want a classic car, but I want a smaller one. Corvair or Z-car, maybe.

[CanuckAmok]

32. well that explains it.

someone should have been driver.

[LeftyMom]

8. We had a green one when I was a kid

I loved that car.

[OzarkDem]

58. That was my first car!

A big blue one. What a boat! I think it got about 12 mpg. It made many trips home from college for me and my friends my first two years.

[flvegan]

2. 1987 Buick Regal Grand National/GNX

This is the GNX:



I had an 87 GN, and it was awesome. The Grand National was the fastest thing America built (in a straight line) during it's tenure...even the 'Vette couldn't catch it.

[pokerfan]

24. Now THIS is a Buick Regal - circa 1974

This was my college car from 1979 to 1982.

[Cyndee_Lou_Who]

41. THAT was/is my dream car.... nice.

[StopTheMorans]

4. (obligatory post equating OP's post with promoting war and fascism)

[ronnykmarshall]

5. Oh yeah I forgot!

Fascism is soooooooooo FAB!!

[StopTheMorans]

6. Ronny, you are too much!

[samplegirl]

38. my dad had one

Ragtop

[henslee]

12. Nice. Can't beat that Caddy. Here's one I dig.... 54 Packard Carribean..

I prefer it in green and white or a sort of canary yellow amd white.

[Cannikin]

14. Does it have to be a production model?

[terrya]

15. Damn...these cars are so...big....

Well, that's enough DU for me today.....

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

16. The Bugatti Royale

A gigantic car made in France in the 1930s. The Bugatti Royale is also probably the most expensive car in the world. A 1931 model recently sold for $8.7 million.

[samplegirl]

37. Beautiful

i love the French cars.

[miss_kitty]

17. going with post war US vehicles I gotta say

The 71 Riviera Boattail

[chaska]

42. That was my mom's car. I got my license in that car....

Pretty tough to parallel park, you can't see the rear end from the driver's seat.

[miss_kitty]

65. But that boattail

it had me at 'Hello!'

It was such a throwback to the 30s.

[Texasgal]

18. My fave:

[Rabrrrrrr]

20. That's the one! It don't get no better,

unless you're talking very old antique jaguars, Duesenbergs, or Rollses.

[driver8]

21. That picture is my dream car -- in that exact color!

Absolutely beautiful.

[Spider Jerusalem]

19. The Duesenberg SJ (1929-1937).

Supercharged overhead cam straight-eight, 320-400 horsepower, top speed of up to 140 mph, and riding on a 153.5" wheelbase (that's almost thirteen feet from axle to axle).

[B Calm]

53. Have you ever been to the Auburn, Cord, Duesenburg museum in

Auburn, Indiana. It's a real treat..

Here is a picture taken this year at the Newport, Indiana Antique Auto Hill Climb.. These cars are a thing of beauty.........

[AlCzervik]

22. 74 Monte Carlo

[MrScorpio]

[MrScorpio]

30. This, I want: '64 Lincoln Continental with suicide doors

[ronnykmarshall]

44. Those cars rock!

My best friend in grammar school's parents had one. I loved it when his mom would pick us up after school in it.

I felt just like Jackie Kennedy.

[RetroLounge]

31. Here you go, true Detroit Steel Land Yachts

My first car, a 1965 Impala Super Sport



What is currently in my garage: 1958 Oldsmobile Super 88



and next to it, the matching Station Wagon

[bridgit]

34. 57 chrysler 300 ~

[CanuckAmok]

35. Not huge (by 50s Detroit's standards) but unbelievably sexy:

The Hudson Italia.

Only 26 were made before Hudson went broke and was absorbed by Nash (who became AMC).

It's basically a Hornet Chassis, but each was sent to Italian coachbuilder Touring of Milan to have this beautiful aluminum body put on. The final pricetag was higher than the top-of-the-line Cadillac, which explains why so few were ordered/built.

Of the original 26, 21 have been located, and all are running.

[bridgit]

[RetroLounge]

40. Kick-ass car, kick-ass garage

I learned to drive in it. It had a push-button automatic transmission.

[Jara sang]

[Oeditpus Rex]

50. Is this one?

Oh, wait... big ass car.

Sorry. Anatomy was never my strong suit. :blush:

[Allenberg]

[B Calm]

[Magrittes Pipe]

57. .

[Rhiannon12866]

60. I believe this was a car that my father had, a 1960 Ford Fairlane...

Except my Dad's was black. Talk about fins! And we thought it was neat because the keyhole to the trunk was hidden under the "R" in Fairlane... It was kind of like we knew a secret, LOL! And you can kind of see it in this pic...:D

[Rhiannon12866]

61. And this was my first car, a 1971 Plymouth Duster.

Also white, but with a blue interior. And I had a strip put along the sides, to avoid dents. I inherited it from my mother. I loved that car! Slant six... They sure don't make them like this, anymore.
