OT: This is a post about Classic cars (So don't even click here to complain about this being on a sports board)

I did this on the old board, but there are different people here. If you own an old/classic/muscle car, post a pic or three. I want to see. Here's mine.
Very, very nice!!! What is that - '80?

'81. It's a driver, not a show car by any stretch. I call it a good 20 yarder. My first car was a '78 much like this one. It was slow as molasses uphill in winter. Caught fire while I was driving it and completely burned.

When I went to graduate school in 1982, there was not enough room or money to keep my ā€˜65 Garnet Red Mustang. Three on the tree, and could catch rubber in all three gears. It was the right decision but I still miss it.

Maybe not a classic but I wish I still had my '75 Cutlass Supreme. The first new car I ever bought.
And one that's still somewhat affordable if you can find it. But make no mistake, people are buying up smog era 70s and 80s cars now as the 60s-early 70s muscle car prices grow astronomically.

I saw a very nice '65 Mustang a few months ago at a detail shop. It wasn't all OEM. Electric windows, original window cranks were wired so you tap down to lower the window and tap up to raise it. Start it using a Honda key fob. Pristine condition and a lot of HP.

I kept a Ford Model A steering wheel in good shape from my great uncle. Where should I go to sell it? Expected value?

Back in the late '60's, I had a '66 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport with a 396, 4-speed.
Traded it for a '69 Chevelle SS 396 automatic with air conditioning.
In the mid '90's, I bought a '67 Firebird ... 326 automatic with air conditioning and power windows.
Sold it in 2015 ...
wish I had ALL of them back!!! šŸ˜©

I was giving a 1973 Nova SS Hatchback just like this one, color and all for high school graduation from my parents.

If you have Netflix, check out Tex-Mex Motors.
It's a series about a garage in Texas that flips classic cars found in Mexico.
Fun show!
