In '90 the only things worth driving were the Chevy/GMC V/R series trucks. My personal favorite would be the V3500 crew cab dually.



I do have one but its in pieces right now, drove it every day to school senior year.

Your so kind.
Awesome example but I prefer the factory 2-tone look.


I have seen three or four '59s (EC) in white over green over the years, and actually drove one that was for sale in 1979. I passed on it because it was a 283/powerglide and I had my heart set on a stick-shift model.
If I had been a school mate of yours, you would have been my best buddy.
I had the AMT model kit when I was about 14 (still have it packed away somewhere) and have always loved the 59-60 El Caminos.

I'm a little surprised and pleased to see so many younger cars on here.

I already have the car I want from the year I was born.

It's the reason that I'm on this site to begin with. It's even an early 69 model, just like me.

Too bad it's in pieces and boxes scattered throughout my garage.

At least you're not in pieces, scattered about the garage!

The last 427 Cobra (CSX 3360) was invoiced to Shelby-American on 12/14/66.
If this is technically a 1967 model - I'll take that!
Here a link to a picture, just scroll down:

If I have to pick a 67 Pontiac, it would be between a full-optioned GP convert or a XS code Ram Air (I), 4spd post-coupe GTO.

Fun question. Wish I was born one year earlier! I guess for some this is almost a "What is your dream car?" question.

1971 Formula, Lucerne Blue, 455 HO, 4 spd, 15 x 7 rally 2's...mmmmm! Can't even decide on interior colour, definately have to have the Formula wheel though.

Actually would love an endura nosed Lucerne Blue Le Mans wagon...as above with auto and every option you could (or couldn't) get.

Every year as my birthday came around my Mum would say the same thing..."Well it was this nearly this time xx years ago I was in hospital...five to five in the morning you came into this world". Every year, without fail, the same line, same tone...it wasn't until I was cleaning out Mum and Dad's house that I found my old baby photos and there was my little "build sheet" from the hospital....time of birth...4:55 am! I was born at 455!
