Nice, I prefer the styling of the 59-60 Chevs though, they seem more sleek and lower to me. Speaking of Chevs, the very first 427 powered cars that Chev built were pretty awesome...the Z11 Impalas in the early '60s, based on a modified 409 engine...very rare, Ka-Ching!!

In an effort to boost my feeble post count over the next few days (weeks, months) I'll be posting photos and the reasons beind my picks. 1949 Ford Prefect I picked this photo off the net as it shows just how tiny the car was. It was the first car I ever owned, bought it out of money from a paper route. Didn't have a license to drive so I spent most of my time taking it apart to see how it worked. A roaring 10hp out of 1.17L and a suspension out of the horse and buggy era. I loved it, only car I ever sold for a profit, it ended up it's days on the dragstrip with a Chevy V8. About two years ago I tracked down a diecast of this car in the very colour I had. Cost me more than the orignal car.

72 Chevy fleetside pickup with "baby moons" IU also have a "wish I'd kept them list" The one on yours that catches my eye is the bug eyed Sprite. Had a friend who owned one, it was like riding in a go cart with doors, loved it.

My father had a few nice cars that I remember, most notably a '62 Impala convertible(Off White, Reddish top), I think it was a 283 car, and a silvery grey '65 Buick Wildcat. Some friends of ours had one of those old Mercs with the electric, canted inward rear windows.
I've had a '67 Mustang FB, 69 Mustang FB, 70 Mach 1 Mustang from that era.

These four digit codes at the front of your car models mean nothing to me... (born in 1983)  F.U., wiseass brat!
