My very first car, learned a lot on that ride :D
http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u232/sanco2k05/DSCN1735.jpg
Then 03 crown vic, definitely the most money i spent on messing with a car. I was really proud of everything i did with this car, for god's sake it started as a silver CVPI originally lol
http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u232/sanco2k05/IMG_1705.jpg
Had a impulse buy on this one, i ALWAYS wanted a older style 7 series and this thing was just MINT. unfortunately $3000 in 3 months of ownership QUICKLY changed my mind lol. definitely the ultimately drive machine

http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u232/sanco2k05/IMG_2671.jpg
Then a really short ownership of this one, 05 grand marquis. it was the best running panther i have owned. It was the slowest (single exhaust 2.73 gear) but such a great ride!!!

Let me guess. The Olds is a '72 and the Charger is a '68, right?
I had a '72 Olds Cutlass S. I sold it in '81. BIGGEST mistake I ever made!
Nice 9c1, my fav of your past rides.
what happened to tall paul? you changed screen name?
Uhhhh, that was not a 9C1, it was an authentic Impala SS.
Don't know what happened to tallpaul. He did not change his screen name to Jake!
Mt Impala was the garage queen of the bunch. Missed that car till I got the Marauder!

Yessir.
My friend's dad was original owner of the '68 Charger. I wanted that car for over 10yrs, watched it sit that WHOLE time, got it when they moved. 383, 4-speed, 2bbl car. I checked with Dodge, only 74 known with that combo. Leaked everything and I was in college at the time. Couldn't afford repairs so I had to sell (:(). Had both the Olds and Charger for sale at same time. Had 1 call on the Olds, at least 7 on the Charger and it sold in a week. That sucked!!
BUT....
I still have my '72 Cutlass Supreme (got it in '92 to replace the '70 Cutlass S I had stolen :mad2:). Rocket 350 done in '07, .030" over, big cam but crappy stock iron heads (nobody makes aftermarket!! Edelbrock 455's fit but are very expensive and need machine work to properly port-match :mad:). She's a wreck but I hope to work on her a little this year. I will likely die with that car in my possession.
They're still out there....but they're gettin' up there ($$). Get 1 while you still can!
Some of the more unique ones.

cool you got me by a few inches. Panther cars are great for us tall guys, eh? only thing I dont like about the MM is the sun visors obstruct my view just a bit at intersections.

Yup, noticed that too. My P71 doesn't have 'dual visors' therefore I don't have that problem in that car!

What kind of pollution did that create?
Never mind, I guess I really don't want to know!
