My 1970 Chrysler New Yorker 2dr HT with rebuilt & modified 440 ci. With the engine mods it's really a fast car for its size. I own it since 2001 and I'm going to sell it now. The Electra is way more fun to drive...
my 1997 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie SLT it's my Daily driver. 318 (5.2L Magnum) no major mods or anything, just an intake and upgraded suspension components. only 99k on it and still kicking. My grandfather bought it new in 1997, so hopefully at some point I'll be able to drive something else and restore this one too!
Here's mine...... ( I love this thread BTW)...... Make no mistake, this is no trailer queen!! We love road trips and the latest one was from Fort McMurray Alberta (Northern canada) down through Vegas to San Diego and alllllllll the way up the Pacific highway to Victoria British Columbia and then back home. Approx 6500 miles!!!!

not sure why, but i'am on a F body kick, maybe because there cheap and have decent performance, 2 LS1's and a 383 z/28uzzled:
LOL. I'm on a bird kick. Buick Skylark is known. Thunderbird. And the Firebird. And actually the whole fleet.
When I need to go in style... I take the Bentley. Rated at 165mph top speed, a turbo V8. Goes petty good for a 5600 pound sedan. Pass the Poupon. Mike
I have been working on this for my wife. The same year as her first car. I have done a ground up, in my spare time when I wasn't working on the Buick.
