Along with bikes, we have a couple of classic cars (belong to Charlotte Cruisers, past member of the Mid-Michigan Mopar group, sadly - died).

We currently have 2 cars:

1) 1970 Plymouth Superbird, Tor-red, 440-6bbl, console auto.

2) (wifes) 1969 Chevy Camaro, RS, convertible, 350 console auto.

We have had both cars over 8 years now. Time flies.

Had about 4 years ago a 1969 Mercury Cougar vert, 351, 3spd manual. I bought this car because I wanted a convertible. I guess I missed my old 69 Cutlass vert I had in the 70's and was jealous of the wifes car. Dumb move on my part. No room for the car and it did not have the power I wanted. Beautiful car and did not want to mess with it so I sold it, and the 2000 Mustang GT and purchased the 03 Cobra vert. Much happier now.

But I still love the 1st gen cougars look. Just a beautiful style and rode like a dream.

Nice rides you got there! Sorry, don't own a classic at this time, but really hope to in the future! Hey, should have posted the pic of the Cobra. That is already a classic.

All I have to say is...OMG! If we are ever in the area can I drive this!?

I have always wanted seat time in a Road Runner

it's no where near as sweet as your rides....but...

Kinda got a resto rod if you could even put it in that category. It's a 1972 Leyland 1275GT, restored to 96 Rover Mini Specs...lol.

You can certainly ride along. Smile

Though remember, it takes premium and gets about 9-11 MPG.. Shocked

That is very cool. I really like the classic British vehicles. I can see Mr. Bean driving this! Smile

musclecar heaven man, nice rides

by 1fstroush Mon Aug 25, 2008 2:43 pm

Wait RIDE along!? I said DRIVE.

Well I guess I'll have to settle for that then.

The Superbird is my all time favorate Muscle car. Can I just come and set in it :*drive*:
I love how in the 70's the dealerships couldn't give those things away and now 40 years later there getting 200,000 for them

If we get another local get together, I can bring it out for sure.

But I have to warn you of a letdown. The interior of a Superbird is just like that of a 70 Plymouth RoadRunner. Only difference is you cannot see where the nose ends. Wink
