I would love my next car to be old - I'm thinking a 1950s Powerwagon

My retiring experienced-non-dealer-mechanic says not to buy anything since 1991. ![]() EDIT: I just checked again: They're fighting over Montego Blue, and paying almost double "book" price! https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...upe-6-speed-3/ IF I get one ![]() ![]() Last edited by ApS; 10-03-2022 at 03:17 PM. |

I think about getting an older car at times, '60's/70's era pickup or 70's muscle car. But if I ever do it will be modified, modern brakes, upgraded suspension, a/c, good stereo with bluetooth. I do get it when people want to keep things original though. |

Yes--suspension and brakes are amazing today compared to the 70s, and it's very easy to forget that until you drive an old car. I loved the original Charger, and their remake looks great, though I have not driven one. Dodge is rolling out electric versions in another year or two with the goal of keeping the spirit of gas muscle cars

Back in high school in the 1980s, I had friends with a 1965 GTO, 1962 Corvair, 1970 something Camaro, 1967 Firebird, a couple of VW Bug and a microbus, a BMW 2002, an International Scout, a Barracuda, and more. To have any of those today...
Today everything is electronics - and the screens are way too big. I am more confused by them and long for good old fashion knobs, dials, and switches. |
