If you had to drive one car for the rest of your life?

  1. Aight blades, choose one care you would own for the rest of your life, so obviously you better choose something you can live with in most situations. You wouldnt have to pay one dollar for the car or insurance etc. but you may never sell it or drive another car. What car would you choose?

    My choice:

    Pontiac Solstice GXP Coupe.. And before the haters, just because it's affordable doesn't mean it isn't dream worthy... I'm gonna own a few of these. And all that's important to me is the body, I'd swap everything else out..

    Built up VR6 engine from VW, supercharged... Lower it a couple inches. Black/chrome rims. New coilovers/anti roll bars. 6 speed manual. Plenty more i would do... Maybe a body kit... It'd have to be very subtle... Don't want it all riced out... Definitely a new hood though, something along these lines... Maybe that middle scoop would be an inch or so high at the most.

  15. RWD I hope? Recipe could result in a pretty sweet car :hello:
     
  16. I wouldn't go with a new car. 10-15 years from new, there'll be something newer, faster, better looking. Classics only get more desirable.
    '66 Lincoln Continental, blacked out convertible with suicide doors. Air ride suspension, black grill, these things look meannn. Hardest part is finding a good bodied four door convertible. Near impossible.

  17. Exactly. If i could get parts for the car i picked in 30 years i would pick a classic. But im thinking realistically. If you wanted a car for the rest of your life, you will have an easier time gettings parts and shit for it in the future if its newer.

    That said, if i could get parts in 30 years, id want a 1955-1957 Chevy Truck in red, with black and red interior, id have to redo the whole drive train, probably a ls1 with a corvette 6 speed, do a tub conversion for like foot and a half wide wheels in the back lol

    Then i would cruise around with my dad ripping the bong. lol
    (Picture is of a 56 but you get the idea. Just like that.)

    Also reason for this is i love chevy trucks, love the 50-60's chevy lineup and my father owned a 57 in yellow that he had to sell and i really want to build something like that with my dad....

  18. Parts aren't bad. It's trying to find one with a good body that the owner doesn't think is worth 4x more than it is. 1 guy I talked to had a 67 that he wanted 15k for as a roller. Interior was stripped, no motor/ tranny, etc. Once I find a good body with a decent price, it will be mine :devious: ahah I don't want to be rollin in a Lincoln that's body has more bondo/ sheet repairs, than the original metal, either.
    I love all golden era car's. Basically, you show me any car that is pre 70's and I would love to own it. The trucks are nice, too. The 6 speed would be difficult, a '56 would have 3 on the tree. Trying to add 3 gears + shift through those would be a bit hard, hah.
    I don't think parts will ever be a problem, people restore old '20's hot rods all the time. Building a 66 in 2030 shouldn't be any harder.
