    I owned one of these in the early 90's. Loved that thing! at 112 mph (governer limited top speed) it was quiet, smooth and just a joy to drive.

    Hard one for me, there’s several would love to own and drive.
    I’ll go with this if I can only have one…
    1969 Yellow GTX with a black convertible top. White seats with black interior. Must have the 440 Six-Pack mated to a 727 TorqueFlight tranny. Would be a center console because I have bucket seats.

    This would do but, I’d have the seats wrapped in Italian white leather.

    Why I love MOPARS, sold her in 84.
    My 1970 Challenger T/A.

    Since there are some Mopars and assorted other yellow cars on this page, I'll post this up. This 1973 Plymouth Road Runner belongs to my dad. He has had it since 1982. Not necessarily my "favorite," but at 50 years old, it is definitely a Classic.

    One of my favorite classic cars is the one I currently have, ('88 Buick Reatta below), just because it is so unique. I like oddball cars.

    My all time favorite classic cars would be a '69 Camaro Z-28 but I can't afford one of those.

    I thought you already had one, John. Like gold or light metallic green....something like that...

    Regardless, I know this vehicle REALLY strikes your fancy, so best of luck with acquiring it.

    55 years, maybe? Or, it’s been sitting since 1988?

    Unique. Would hate to polish this bad boy or be riding another vehicle on a sunny day, near it though. Rolls Royce Phantom II.

    ^^^ Obviously not stock but this is a bad *** Chevrolet El Camino. Love the "woodgrain" embedded within the paint job.

    ^^^ 1931 Lincoln Model K Phaeton. They definitely don't build 'em like they used too.
