My parents bought a 64 Impala sedan when I was six months old, and I eventually learned to drive in that car. 15 years after my dad sold it, I bought my 64 Impala sport sedan. It's the same Meadow Green as the car I grew up with, and I love it.

My Web site is down at the moment, but I posted some pictures on the Chevy Talk Web site (http://www.chevytalk.org/threads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=UBB13&Number=1295582&page=0&fpart=4)

My dad's ol' 1969 Pontiac GTO "The Judge".

The seats were lumpy, the steering sucked, what is suspension, and who ever heard of SEATBELTS ..........BUT DAMN IT WAS FAST!!

Wow, there are so many great cars to choose from! If I have to choose one it would be the 1968 Corvette L88

http://inspired2innovate.com/corvette/special_edition/L88.jpg

In this color with the chrome trimmed side pipes.

See?

I think it's clear now that the 60's were the best decade for cars, particularly American muscle!

See?

I think it's clear now that the 60's were the best decade for cars, particularly American muscle!Yes and no Elvis, the 60s pruduced a lot of cars that were spectacular to some degree and stood out in a crowded parking lot but what we may be forgetting here is the lack of refinement that many of those cars had compared to what is available today or in the last 15 years even.

Suspension geometry has improved tremendously, engines and control systems are also much more efficient. They are capable of comparable performance in some cases with greater economy and longevity.

Take, for instance, my favorite 60s choice, the '68 L88. It had a 10 or 12 gallon gas tank and fuel economy which forced you to fill up on the hour, every hour if you were to take a road trip in it. The clutch was so stiff you had to be able to do multiple reps on a leg press with your own weight if you expected to be able the shift the beast. The suspension was murder on your kidneys and yet it didn't handle as well as you would expect from a sports car.

Driving that beast was a lot of hard work! But it looked bad! It sounded bad! It got rubber in all four gears!

Get your priorities straight. :hitstick:

ICYI, the original "The Italian Job" movie's opening scene features a Miura SV tooling around the Alps until it runs into an earthmover in a tunnel.
