1964 Chevy Impala

My 1969 Camaro was similar to this, except it had a black top with black stripes on the sides, no bumper guards, and a 350.

Still kicking myself for selling it back in 1982 for $2200. That was a good price for a 13-year-old car back then. It only had 120,000 miles on it.

I have owned 57 vehicles over the course of my life. Many of them would be classics if I had them now. Among them: 57 Ford Fairlane 500, 59 Ford Galaxy 500 (had 3), 56 VW, 62 VW, 64 VW, 66 Malibu SS, 73 Malibu SS, 76 Caprice Classic, 57 Plymouth, 63 Nova SS, 71 Nova SS, 62 Ford Fairlane, 64 Ford, 51 Desota, 67 Firebird, 68 Mustang, 64 Oldmobile (had 2), 67 Ford Fairlane, 71 Maverick, 62 International Pick-up, 66 Impala, 71 Chrysler Cordova, 79, 81, 84 Cadillacs, 72 Chevy Vega, 77 Thunderbird, 72 Mercury Marquis, and on the list goes. I got out of the car collecting business a few years back. I now have only one car which will eventually become a collector's car...a 95 Corvette. I have had a love affair with vehicles since my childhood.

 

Did you leave any of them in the yard? I liked the '59 Ford a lot. Perry Mason drove one. madre and I almost bought one in Ft. Ashby, WV quite a few years back. You've owned some very cool cars..... except for the '71 Maverick unless it was a Grabber. And the Vega unless it was a Cosworth.:thumbs:

 

We've had a '65 Chevy step-side truck for quite a few years. We had to put a new tranny in it, so we put a four-speed, so's we could use it to haul logs & brush, but the rest is original. It's still a work truck.

My favorite cars were two Dodge Dart Swingers, and a Plymouth Scamp, all very early seventies.. Pretty much the same, slant-6 with an automatic. They were two door-door coupes, but you could still fit seven people into one. Great cars, easy to work on, but not very good in winter.
