Biggest POS I ever owned was a 1965 Stang. I think them things were built from leftover tuna cans. The body could be dented with slight thumb pressure and it had a devious habit of eating third gear and a clutch about every two months.
I wish I had put the l`il hoss on blocks and filled the cylinders with oil so I could make one of the "in the know" collectors happy with it at the prices being paid for them today.
When I finaly sent Ole Blue to greener pastures and started looking for another ride I found a `61 Vette with less than 50 thou actual miles on it. (This was in `69).
The guy just used her occasionaly on weekends for little putts. I paid a grand total of $1350.00 for the Vette.
That, my friends, was a sweeeeeeeeet ride. Only car that I ever owned that I never grew tired of.
