    I am looking at a 65 Ford Mustang. Purple, 6cyl,auto trans. It is already fixed up and purdy. I am waiting to collect on a settlement and then I will go pick it up.

    I have never really been big on cars, but this thing is SOOOOOO yummy.

    Any of the above cars would be perfect for service. I don't know what possessed him other than price but my one pioneer friend in my hall bought like a 72' Green Dodge Aspen. This thing was like the worst thing for service ever. Amenities included vinyle seating, no A.C., no power steering, just lap belts in the back, AM mono radio, and no cadillic converter which made spewing toxic fumes all the way to the front door that much better. Then, to make things better, the kid ended up wrecking the front end which made the car look even better for service.

    However, I'm kinda against classic cars for their lack of safety. A very close witness friend of mine died when his classic Aston Heily went off the road and hit a telephone pole. Ever since, it has been my motto to buy as new and modern as possible. My list of cars that I've had now include a Saab, Volvo, and Toyota Camry. Also, no matter how much money I have or how much of an A**hole I become, I will never ever buy an SUV unless of course I become a farmer.

    I've got a 1973 Austin Mini thats in the middle of getting rebuilt. Its body has been restored, had a stainles steel bodykit made up and fitted, and a 1989 turbo engine fitted. Its just ready to be put back together again then street raced! And I've got a 1959 Morris Minor ready to start when I've finished the mini.
