'70 Ford Torino

67 Chev Impala Although I don't think I would see over the dash I have always loved American muscle cars

I agree, I love the Dodge Challenger.

Photobucket ain't work for me...bah!

Those are nice! Lots of them around here. You'd love the Hot August Night's car show in Vegas.

There's an American fella that lives near me and him and his Dad restored a Pontiac Firebird too. Beautiful thing.

just watching that counting car on history someone offered $50.000 for that '70 Ford Torino and the owner turn him down so i will never own one

65 Mustang My photobucket not working

it's alright i prefer the ford back end

if you could chop them both in 2 had the ford back end and the Mustang front you got one scary car

Me either Still nice to dream though

This used to be our baby, 1953 Mercury Monterey. OH plays in a 50's r&r band but we could'nt get the drum kit in it. Gutted when we sold it

Awesome! I'm sure it wasn't easy on fuel haha!

She was better than my ford galaxy & certainly better than our 7ltr Cortina mk1

cant you get the engines upgraded?

Yea a 7ltr Cortina wouldn't really pass today's emissions requirements lol!!

Still be MIGHTY though hehe!

Got to be a Mustang for me , first time I went to the states I had a ticket for a economy car (skateboard) and they gave me a Mustang Convertible to say I was chuffed to bits was an understatement

davy that look like a new car there must be a old car you like

2 gallons to the mile when the cortina was racing the strip but min of 8 when on the road

Im more of the 80's fords me!

well it was new at the time but it would be 12 years old now just a modern day Mustang, in the old old days they just had hoooooooooooooge steering wheels and bench seats

if we was talking about newish car this would be my



my mate brother pull up in one when we was at school

Hey Matt she was fully road legal, 12.1 quarter mile

For a newish car I always had a soft spot for the VW Corrado. All the bad boys had them round where I grew up.

thats cool I suppose but if we talk about new new cars then we have to stick British and talk Aston Martin, one of my newest customers in Coventry make a lot of the bling for them

do they still make dodgy vipers

yea but it's now called a Dodge SRT10

i like the vans they look smart i'm not sure about the cars

Oooh those flashy American cars!

When I was a child in the '50s, most people (if they could afford a car at all) had a black sit-up-and-beg Ford Popular, or similar. EXCEPT the airmen at the local American airbase. They brought over heeooge glossy tail-finned chrome-laden beasties - they looked so incongrous in our little country lanes and often couldn't cope with them, often getting piled into unexpected cottages, fields and haystacks

What did it for me (and I suspect a lot of other people) was the film Bullitt where Steve McQueen (sigh of desire) drove a Mustang (almost equal sigh of desire) in that first epic car chase scene.

Some short while after, of course, Ford introduced the Capri into the UK - somewhat similar to the Mustang. Oh how I wanted one!

Nowadays, I don't see so many American cars. Someone a few streets away has a Chevrolet Impala in his drive ( a lot like your photo Steve) - unfortunately it has been up on blocks for many many months, presumably waiting for wheels (as these are what are missing). Lovely car, apart from the missing wheels.

'67 Shelby. That's all!
