What's your favorite car?
I have mentioned before that my hubby & I have a thing for cars, especially collector ones. Our love of cars is not lost on either of our boys. Ds1 is a Mustang diehard like his mom. Ds2 loves all things Corvette & can not wait to begin his own collection.
My hubby bought me a 2005 Mustang GT Convertable least year. She is my baby. I cried when he handed me the keys. I only have 4000 miles on her & try not to drive her in the rain. She is deep red w/black interior. I used to drive a 68 Mustang white/red interior when my hubby & I dated. I sold her for $1000.00 back in 1988. She needed alot of work but how I wish I could have held onto her. Had to make other decisions at the time. So I've pined over that one & the 82 Turbo GT black with the racing package that I totalled being very stupid which is what I had before I got the 68. My parents had a 64 1/2 when I was a kid & I've always loved it. I would love to someday get a 641/2 Mustang Convertable & several others. The Saleen & Shelby's are also on my list.
My hubby on the other hand is a Camero nut!!! His mom had one that he raced around & wrecked. Then he had one himself that he had to get rid of before I came along. He has a picture of one on the refrigerator so I knew that in time I would see him in one. He just bought a 68 Camero SS. She is body off restored. Clean as a whistle & with her brand new 350 engine has a sweet rumble sound. She has a pristine Tuxedo Black paint job you can see your reflection in. He has his eye on the new Camero that is about to be available in 2008.
It's definitely a case of "Unchecked Car Enthusiasm".
We have about 60 more days of driving here in MN & then it's time to put them in storage for the winter.
Have you seen the movie "Cars"? It really is a fun one for the whole family. It's my speed anyway.
I'd love to hear your stories~
