Moby and Lucille said:
So the newest car you've ever owned is a 79 trans am? Or is this just a list of project or fun cars that excludes daily drivers?
Click to expand...

The newest I own is a 2003 Dakota R/T PICKUP.(presently)
Every one of these vehicles except the 59 MKIV convertible was a daily driver.
If I had to pick the best one of the bunch, I would have to say, my first 62 Caddy convertible.
That was one beautiful car.
It was 2 years old when I bought it.
It was frost blue in and out, with a white top.
I wish I had it today.
I traded it in for a 65 Falcon convertible after a couple of years.
Gas was becomming an issue even back then so I wanted something that got better mileage.
Big, Big mistake.
