Weird how time changes your perspective. I’ve had multiple of each. Corvettes,Cameron’s trans am, mustang, Chevelles and GTO’s and a few hot rod trucks.Never likes the looks of Mopar stuff) Never really regret selling any of them. In the end, they are just modes of transportation. We are at a time in our life where we could afford any car within reason. I really like my beat up 15 Scion XB. Not planning on replacing it unless it blows up. Getting ready to hit a 100k and I’m hoping to get 200k more out of.

Sold the Callaway convertible and picked this one up. A 2007 Ron Fellows Edition Z06 #222. Took it to the tuner , put long tube headers, CNC ported heads, intake, and dyno tuned. On the stock cam it puts down 510RWHP. Super nice , low mileage car. Love it.

My 1968 Chrysler Newport was a cool sled. I would have loved to keep it, but it was too big to fit in my garage!

I had a '68 300, similar concave body panels. K8 440. Very cool, but in the late 70's drank way too much gas for a kid commuting to college and working on a dairy farm. Sold it and bought a Volvo 142....bit of a difference in the passing lane.

In my younger days, I bought a 70 challenger 340 from the local funeral director's son. My knee when through the side of the rusty front fender while leaning over to adjust the timing. Unfortunately, I just couldn't afford a good one back then. Floor pans leaked so bad stuff grew in the carpet on the passenger's side. Definitely not my coolest car.

These days I still long for Mopar muscle, but kinda like the wind in my hair - what little I have left. I'm waiting for FCA to build a ragtop Challenger...

Either my 1966 Gt 350 (paid 800.00 for it during the fake gas crisis of the 70's) or the 1968 1/2 428CJ factory drag car (1500 for that one) wish I had either one today 6 figures+, but who knew????

 

[m-forgery]

1970 Chevelle SS 454 LS6, 450 hp. I want to cry every time I see one cross the block selling for six digits.

 

[Scooterrolls]

I was lucky enough to get to drive one of those at the drag strip on several occasions (owner could handle the car) it made way north of 450hp even in stock form.

I've had several neat cars, a '64 Corvette, '67 GTO, many BMW (2 of them M3s and another a 2002 with s14 M3 engine), Range Rover HSE, etc. But I got a 2020 Corvette 3lt z51 last week. Nothing else compares.

I've owned vettes for 40 years.

Picking this one up @ the museum 7/12. ELB, HTC, 2LT, NPP, MSRC.

They are just wicked looking!

If you’re talking about the C8, the wait can be easily a year or more. Nine months for me. They can’t make enough right now to satisfy the demand with all the constraints in available suppliers.

 

[Scooterrolls]

Have fun, I like the stripes it breaks up the body lines just right!

At 17 years old my first car was a '69 roadrunner,then a '70 challenger,'70 'Cuda,'69 super bee,'68 conv. corvette,'72 malibu conv.,'84 elcamino SS,'53 chevy 5 window restomod pick up,'79 chevy short bed 4x4 pickup w/corvette TPI motor, I have had some fun... if I could get one back it would be the 'Cuda

I took a 30 minute ride in a friends '21 Torch Red Z51 hardtop convertible. I was impressed with how quiet the ride was and how smooth it rode. He had it in tour mode so I am sure that made a difference but you could easily daily drive it. A 7 month wait to get it though. Yikes !
