I currently have a 71 Elcamino SS with a small block 400...but the body needs a lot of work...the engine runs good....I mainly use it to get shitty with it in the back yard...but I'm looking for something to drop the engine in ....and will probably turn the front end of the Elcamino into a barbecue.....I used to have a 71 cutlass....but it was stolen........miss that car...

I have a classic but its not the typical hot rod, big engine classic. I've got a 63 Dodge Dart, which was really a family car and not considered a "cool car" by anyone. But I like stuff that has the "family" or "everyday" look of the era and I spruced it up real nice. Not to mention, its my first car so it holds a special place.

Heres my 55' chevy. Its been in the family since 56'. Its had some engine fires, and used to be baby blue, stock, and a bunch of history that im not gonna go into. It sat for years and years after the last fire, when i was 15 (in 97') i started workin on it again. I love this car, i learned how to drive on it, drove it all through high school, its been part of my life since well, always.

I'm in the same boat as Midwest Sick Boy...I'd love a Chev, either a 52 or a 54 painted cherry red with an all white leather interior whom I would name Jessica

This has been a real good topic. It's interesting what cars you all drive. I always wanted an old classic American car but they are so expensive over here in the UK, both to buy and get spare parts for.
And if I did manage to get one then I doubt I could run it.....you may think $2.30 is expensive for gas, but spare a thought for us, we are currently paying ?3.82, which coverts to over $7.00..

I am suppose to go look at a 1940 studebaker champion this weekend....the guy started the project but is now in the process of building a house so he wants it out of his garage. He already chopped it 3-4 inches...but it still needs a lot of work. I'm hoping my small block 400 will fit in it........I'll post some images if I get it.....

It's not a "classic" yet, but I think my car is pretty damn cool. Here's the only photo I can find of it right now.
