Cars with character?

[Matts00GT]

Any hot rods, street rods, true muscle cars, lead sleds, cruisers, etc... on the board?

I'm leaning towards picking up a '50 Merc in the spring. All the new production cars just don't do it for me anymore.

Share what you got! Preferably nothing post 1986.

Not really Old School but it is pre 1986 and I feel its got some character.

Took an early Fox and tried to build it so it would give a Pro-Touring feel to anyone looking at it.

My 76 Monte Carlo. Its been in the family for almost 20yrs, and the last 10 I've been restoring it. A few of the goodies are a ZZ4 crate engine, Holley fuel system, MSD ignition, 3.73 gears.

My grandfather used to have this 62 chrysler newport, I always thought this was a really angry looking car. So much so, that when I was a kid I'd never go near the thing because I thought it'd devour me He owned it from the 70's until sometime in the mid 00's when my family and grandma made him sell it because it never really moved and always needed work because of that.

Push button trans and a bubble dome gauge cluster, I have no idea where the car is now, I assume its still floating around southern maryland.

This thing was a boat, 2 door car and it was way longer then my marauder. You could fit a toyota IQ in the trunk.

I am with you on this. I am pretty sure my next car will be an older muscle car. I also love the 65 Lincoln Continental.

Since one of the favorites I've owned was my 1970 Road Runner, this GTX is officially my favorite in this thread. :rockon:

Heres the interior I finished recently.

This is the 73 Monte that needs a little work.

Does he ever go down to the C-U area? I'd swear I've seen that exact car running around Champaign before.
