What else ya got?
 
I think someone started a thread like this before, but I just wondered what else everyone drives or tinker with beside the 67-72 trucks we all love. Here's a shot of my '63 Lincoln Continental.

My 1972 Snapper gets most of the tinkering besides the trucks.

Then I have the daily drivers - 96 Bonneville (daughter's), 02 Bonneville (Boss's :D), and my 03 Ram

I got this in my garage. It was completed in 1990 and shown at car shows until about 1994. I moved to my house in '96 and it hasn't seen much street use since. When the new garage gets done it will get brought back to life. It's an original '67 RS car. Now it has a BB chevy / th400 / 9-inch ford combo. Typical late 80's/early 90's Pro Street car. It needs updated bad. Someday. Sorry for the crappy pics.

I posted this the last time around.

It is a 1971 Malibu convertible. I bought it in 1989 or so.

This past summer it got 4 new tires, an alignment, upper A-frame bushings, upper and lower ball joints, and rear springs.

Except for the 15" Corvette ralley rims it is bone stock. I have the stock 14" ralleys but they don't fit over disk brakes. The car doesn't have front discs. Yet. However it does have power drums.

The center caps were still in the garage. The picture was taken moments after I got it back from the alignment shop.

Remember what a heavy old car with a frame, fresh radials, and an alignment road like? Just like this car.

The PO rebuilt the 307 and the th350. He painted it a butt-ugly resale red. I noticed the factory medium blue under the chrome around the top so I sanded all the red off and painted the car the factory medium blue metallic in 1990 or so. Medium blue happens to be my favorite color on 70-72 Chevelles.

The paint has held up well for a single stage paint job. However it doesn't sit outside much.

I don't know how many are left but I do know this is one of 5800 convertibles made that year.

I only need to drop it a couple of inches in the back and add a sound system. I am 6' 4" and this is the most comfortable car I have ever driven.

With gas at around 7 dollars a gallon big petrol engined cars are pretty damn expensive to run now.

My new daily driver since my last rig rolled out from under my deck across my driveway and down over the banking. This is just like mine except it is clean, I haven't gotten around to taking any picks of yet and right now is pretty filthy from the road salt.
