Not a single Jaguar E-Type? You could have chosen one any time from 1961 - 1969.

Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.

A Ford Man !! Love the 60 and 61 Galaxies. 65 Wildcat was one but brakes were weak. GTO and 442 from when America was great. Superbird a man who drives on the wild side. 55 Belair beautiful. Any T Bird. I like your choices.

It's a good thing you didn't go to, like, 1975, 'cause, really, 1968-1974 is sort of like just one year in my memory--Nixon/Viet Nam; Nixon/rock 'n' roll; Nixon/the Beatles break up; Nixon...
