I know my wife would like me to get rid of my '67. I was seriously thinking of doing that too, but lately, I have changed my mind. I'm thinking I might sell the 300-6 out of it to Kenny (snowman710) he said he could use it. I just have to wait for the weather to get better.

Well.....the problem is I don't know if that's a good enough reason to dump her after a year......also, I'm not sure if there's anyone else that would put up with me like she does. Oh well......she'll ride in it sometime whether she wants to or not.......I am bigger than her......

Guess that made no sense Pat, unless your wife likes the car, there ain't no way she's going to try and sweet talk her brother into getting an old car into your garage!

Well, she knows what that car is worth, so that might be different. Now, when it comes to my '67, she pretty much is against it!

Uh oh, some folks might be shocked to see this innocent dream-car thread turned into a "Dr Phil" session on relationships with the opposite sex.

Another thread that's wandered off into space.... Okay, back to the point at hand.. I did think of another car I'd like to have. Actually 2. 1964 427 Thunderbolt......and while we're dreaming, how 'bout a 66 cobra 427...Seems to be a pattern here with the 427's...!

Thanks for compliments on my truck build. I did update my gallery with some new pics I took yesterday. I have more pics in my photobucket account. Here is a link:

http://s79.photobucket.com/albums/j155/bucks77highboy/?action=view&current=DCAM0094.jpg

Just start clicking through there. (I may have some irrelevent pics in there).

I'm getting many pics in my accounts, so it takes awhile to look through everything. And I just have one door on so far and still working with the adjustments.

And back on the dream vehicles. There are some really great vehicles being mentioned. Also, I wouldn't hesistate to have a brand new Mustang Shelby GT 500 though.

Funny how when these types of threads pop up, most people refer to vehicles from the 50s, 60s,70s. Not many people refer to vehicles newer than 79. I'm sure we all would not give back a brand new Truck or Sports Car, but most people would rather have something of old.

Your right. I have to admit, my Superduty would be on my list, but since I already have it, I figured we could list our dream cars! And I do love that truck!

The 50's and 60's were definitely a unique time in automotive history. I doubt we will ever see anything like that again.

But, I wouldn't mind having a new Mustang too, and I'd even settle for a GT convertible!
