Cars...new old sleek unique let's talk about them
Hey my dudes, what kinds of vehicles do you dig? What cars are your favorites? What would you own if money was no object? What kinds of rides have you had if you've owned a "classic"?
Hopefully this is a thread where we can all agree or at the very least have fun but you never know....
My wishlist
#1 1966 Chevy Impala SS

#2 1959 Mercedes Benz Gullwing

#3 1971 Ford Mustang Mach 1

My Grandfather had #1 and it's all sentiment is why I would want that very car.
How about you folk?

Re: Cars...new old sleek unique let's talk about them
If I was going to get a different Mercedes than the gullwing (old or newer) or an old timey Roadster I would have to say I'd like a G Wagon

Oh and here's the newer SLS gullwing

The new Mustang and new Camero as well as the new Challenger are all very good looking cars....if only the last GTO had been designed better it looked like shit.

Re: Cars...new old sleek unique let's talk about them
I know how to do an attachment, but they are too small usually. When I press the button next to 'insert video', which I assume is insert picture ..... I just get a big white patch over the whole screen and nothing happens

It is the icon to the left of insert video which should be insert image. However it is not working at the moment.

Yeah, true that. I also have to reload the page after I've hit the Like button for it to show up. There's obviously some technical issues.

We are constantly being attacked by hackers/spammers/nerds.

Re: Cars...new old sleek unique let's talk about them
Oh well, no pictures in my post. How did you insert those pictures, Lyle?
Anyway, back on the subject. There's nothing wrong with a new, beautifully engineered and high tech Mercedes. I like Mercs, and quite like a lot of the new cars out there these days.
Having said that, I grew up in Detroit so I really love the old Yank muscle cars and Mopars. Stuff like the Pontiac GTO, Dodge Charger, Plymouth Fury and the old Camaro's really do it for me. Seeing how people take care of and love these old classics is nice too.
When I was a child, I told my mother I was going to have a 1969 Stingray, and I opened my first bank account with 10 cents when I was about 10 years old. Quite some time later, that savings account bought me my 1969 Corvette Stingray .... convertible, with massive chrome sidepipes! :dancer:
Most younger people get really screwed on car insurance in the U.K., and they just can't afford to get very nice cars. They end up with tiny engined Clios or Fiestas and then try to pimp them up with cool headlights etc to make them look more sporty.
I don't mind at all, and I always compliment them and admire their car...... at least they love their car and gave it some character rather than making do with one of those horrific, joy sapping pieces of boxy shit that most average manufacturers produce!

Re: Cars...new old sleek unique let's talk about them
Well I HAD been clicking the little 'insert image' button but apparently something happened to that :cwm10:
You had a Stingray eh? Like this fella???
http://morganzilla.com/wp-content/up...teRoadster.jpg
That's a badass car right there!
Youngsters get screwed on Auto Insurance all the time.....it's because they suck at driving and they're in horrible accidents because they get too much car waaaaaay too soon. That said, when I was younger I still wanted a badass old school muscle car, but the way things worked out I had an '83 BMW 318i......I enjoyed driving that, I did not however enjoy driving the 1992 Ford Escort which replaced that, piece of SHIT.

Re: Cars...new old sleek unique let's talk about them
The pictures are not working but love the Ford Mustang GT from the film "Bullitt" starring Steve McQueen. Dark green beauty. :cool:

Re: Cars...new old sleek unique let's talk about them
I'm building a gt500 eleanor which a brand new body from dynacorn suspension from cpp, car going up on barret jacksson whenever it's ready, i just placed the order for the body and parts which will be around 6-12 months delivery time which is insane but still a good project and working with brand new stuff makes things a lot easier.

Thats a seriously beautiful immaculate car. Mine isn't that nice! I think, looking at the hood, that it's a big block, whereas mine is a small block 350.
i don't agree that youngsters suck at driving and get cars too soon. I had my first car at 17 and I definitely sucked at driving .... I don't see why some poor guy or gal nowadays gets so screwed compared to what I did.
'83 BM is a nice car, '92 Escort not so much 😀

Re: Cars...new old sleek unique let's talk about them
For any of you gearheads that are interested Jay Leno does a show on YouTube titled 'Jay Leno's Garage' where he focuses on a car or two and gives the ins and outs on where it's from how it was built etc.

Also Jerry Seinfeld does 'Comedians in cars getting coffee' which is nice as well

Was going to post the exact same thing. Could be because all the ol man drove was Mustangs until 94' ;D. Seems they changed for the sake of 'keeping up' and staying modern and lost what made them great. I turned my nose up at a 65' Fastback because I wouldn't take the weekends of one summer to work on it. Pop gave it to my older sister for graduation..she wrecked it month later. Never forget that ;D Minus the killer fat tires and racing stripes, very similar here http://i.imgur.com/493BGE1.jpg

Having trouble with mobile myself and no luck with image insert. Should be worked out soon I'd imagine. For quick fix used Imgur for above pic or another image sharer.

I'm still having a good laugh over this one. ;D
BTW, the image insert problem and the Like button problem seem to go hand in hand....... (oops... no pun intended). :D
