Here's another ride of mine. Old trucks are about as simple as it gets if you want to build one. Project vehicles are fairly reasonably priced and parts are readily available.

Not fast, but a lot of fun.

Had a '71 F100 that beat eveything I ever faced on the road. I'd have to take a picture of a picture to show it. Only got 4 miles to the gallon and leaked almost everywhere. I loved it, but had to sell it for a loss or go broke maintaining it.

Pretty slick.. My brother once had a 57 that was a lot like
that one, except the single headlights that the 57 had..
His was painted up a dark maroon color..
Also like that purple 37 Chevy Mickey D had.. Dats slick..

My two time machines....Sit in them and I'm a young man again. That is until I try to get out of them and stand up
68 Mustang and a 63 Galaxie 500XL

I tried, but couldn't give a double "like"!

You should be here this weekend. There's a massive street rod show in Pigeon Forge. The locals, me included, know to stay off the main strip because of the massive traffic tie-up's. My neighbor hosts the Dixie Gas Swap Meet...anything antique that was ever sold in a gas station...and his vendor area is already swamped. Come on down!

A couple years ago my cuz showed up at work with this car, it was a little different but had a full house flathead engine which really caught my attention. I've always loved the sound of a worked up flathead and like to working on stuff. I bought the car from him and went about rebuilding the suspension, some other cosmetic stuff. I'm in the middle of a complete re-wire currently and plan to have it back on the road for summer. Its still got the old tube radio in it, everything works. Me and the car are the same age...

Really nice Shoe box! I am currently on the hunt for a 49 or 50.

Since i've been doing auto body repair & painting for the past 35+ years as well as custom painting and building street rods and drag cars, I still have the itch.
Cars so far has been a 35 Chevy Coupe, 36 Desoto 5/window Coupe, 48 Chevy Sedan Delivery, 48 Chevy Coupe, 33 Plymouth 3/window Coupe as well as others.
This was the one I stuck with.
1935 Chrysler 5/window Coupe, all Chevy power, set up for 1/8mile run but driven on the street. Run the street at 30mph in idle, runs only on raceing fuel.

I have posted this picture before but, it fit this thread. Couldn't afford any "cool" cars when I was young so I set about to put together a small collection. The '43 jeep was an impulse purchase : )

ElToro · Apr 15, 2012

i had a 65 vette. wish i had it back. ive been looking at buying something new lately. the new shelbys look pretty hot. ive seen the 2012 in the 40k range. or a late 90s early 2k vette for well under 20k. problem is only 2 seats when i have 2 small kids. we do have a family car for long hauls but it would be nice to have 4 seats. not really interested in older muscle, fully restored costs too much and i dont have the time energy or money for a shop restoration and my wife would not be on board with a garage full of not running car for the next few yers

DGT, that's a nice collection! I have an M38A1 Willy's, their a lot of fun.
