Anyone Into Classic Cars?

Wish I'd kept this one as I live in CA's 'lowrider' country!: a '60 Impala, 283 short-block '3 in the tree', I bought in 1969 for $200.00!!! and drove my first cross-country till '76; had 400k miles! Now in the $30K range!!!!

I'm still driving this one I bought in '86 for the wife: not sure if it's a classic yet but I do get deferential nods...who knows maybe I'm the classic

:

At 240,000 miles, it was in mint condition, no sunrot-always garaged, till some shelved paint cans hit the hood in a local 'quake. A loaded dealer model

, I've replaced all the window electric motor$ and $unroof cable$-le$$on learned! ; my '05 Corolla, a battle-wagon 5-speed stick-with 225,000 miles is all hand-crank windows....no sunroof.

IN CA, Toyotas never die!
