If you could have one car back, which one would it be ?
« on: March 23, 2023, 03:21:41 PM »
I have owned a bunch, and have pictures of NONE of them. Owned a bunch of hoopdees along with these:
1964 Corvette
67 Porshe 912
2006 Corvette convertable
1964 Bug
72 Spitfire (brand new)
64 Olds Dynamic 88
62 Olds Dynamic 88
60 Bugeye Austin Healy
69 Chevelle 4 speed car (brand new)
1943 Jeep
56 F100

Out of all the cars I have owned, there is only one that I wish I could have back.
My first. A 1957 Triumph TR3. It cost my Dad $400. It had a rod knock. Rebuilt the engine with two friends in my dads garage. Loved that car and can't afford one now.

What's  yours ? This pic is not my car.... :bhead

Familiar plate, lived there almost 15 years.

My choice would be -79 Dodge D150 Stepside Warlock. The one in pick is same color but mine had chrome wheels and was missing wooden railings on bed.

That was a beast w/ 360 Police Special. Mine had bit tuned 360 and left almost everything on Finnish streets back then behind it up to around 100 mph. Then run out of gear (3.73 rear) and laws of physics, as it was as aerodynamic as orthodox church..   :D

Nice!!! This is one car I never understood why they stopped making or brought to the US, not that I really knew anything about them, but I always thought they were cool.
