      If I didn't live in the rust belt - I'd drive an older car too - as it is - early 2000 vehicles are starting to rust, my feces wagon has rusted through both rockers at 180k and 10 years old.
      There's always something new to learn.

        Thankfully, i found a place that deals with panels so this paycheck i'm ordering rockers then the quarters.

          I swap between an 89 and a 2000. I DD a 78 malibu for a while, and plan on a 85 cutty soon, but I like my AC when it get past 95...

            The SS is a 2005, but before that it was the 1980 Mustang.

              Currently, it's a six-year-old Mustang. Once it's new engine is in and it's brought down to Arizona, it'll be a 30 year old Dodge.

                Don't have a daily driver, I don't drive every day, and we have too many cars to just drive one regularly.

                The past three days I drove my 55 chevy. I'll probably drive my wife's 70 Dart today.

                  Yeah, I know...
                  Loren stole the Cherokee, and is harrassing me about the Hello Kitty sticker on it...but he seems to prefer that to this!

                  I could have 40 gold bars in that car and park it with the keys in it and the lights on and still no one would touch it...

                        I swap between my wife's 2000 Astro and my 352078 mile 95 Nissan. I use the truck for my medical supply delivery job. And like Gail's wagon I could park the Nissan anywhere with the keys in it with stacks of gold and hundred dollar bills in the bed and nobody would come within 100 feet of it.

                          My DD remains the '98 Dakota. Sweet little truck and I plan to keep it forever. Someday, new paint, maybe a 360 swap at some point, but the same little truck. I LOVES my Dak!

                            alot of us are there.
                            I'd love a 16 gauge buggy of old..especially being able weld something once and awhile.

                            I am rather crazy with a j-tin 87...daily car, in fact it is the only one for a couple of years.
                            welding was outrageous, still going after things to my way.

                            I'd still do impala, chevelle four door. the bigger anything. I used to, but no resources to get things done.

                            today could make it possible. no regrets.

                              Hell man, I drive $100-$500 beaters in winter, what I drive when there is no salt or snow is very different.

                              1998 right now, 1970 or 1967 in a week or two.

                              Currently this one.



                              Soon to be one of these two.
