Today….My top 5 Cars of all time

These are the cars that if I were a chick they’d make me wet. ;)

O.K. well probably not…because well overall they aren’t the hottest cars in the world, but they are all cars that *I* like for me and my own personal reasons.

 

5. – 1976 Corvette Stingray because I always thought it was the style used in the old Annie Potts [yumm!] ‘Movie Corvette Summer’

 

 

4. – 1973 Corvette Stingray because it WAS the car used in the 1976 movie ‘Corvette Summer’ staring Annie Potts and Mark Hamill.

 

3 – 1982 Pontiac Fire bird – Can you say K.I.T.T.? I thought you could…but we won’t talk about Michael Knight…aka…David Hasslehoff.

 

2 – 1984 Buick Regal Grand National – I owned a hopped up 1982 Regal sport, and did a LOT of street racing with my brother in the late 80’s…and the stock GN’s were monsters in the quarter and 8th of a mile…they blew for top end because they were governed down.

 

1 – 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Z-28 (Right) well just look at the thing….it was the ultimate ‘Pony’ car of its time (though today we’d probably call them ‘Muscle Cars’.)

Ok that’s todays Monday 5….hope you enjoyed it….we’ll see what the future holds…

  1. Once when I was young and blonde (really, well, not really it was dye) I had a red 1985 Camero with T-top. Not as cool as earlier Cameros as they had downsized to a V-6 vs. V-8, but it was still so much better that the Chevettes and Omnis I had been used to. I just came across a picture of me standing in front of it in leopard spotted jeans and big hair, c. 1987. My students had a good laugh at “Professor M. and her ‘bitchin’ Camero.”

    +++ Ok you can’t talk about that picture and not share… send it to me and I’ll post it on the comment. ;)

  2. What no Vega? I am partial to the 68 Camaro SS. Just something about a car that rocks when it idles. Must have a V8. Camaro went with a staight 6 and it suuuuucked.

    +++ Any non V-8 pony/muscle car is a joke….now that said, some have v-10′s and v-12′s I’ll let those slide. ;) and nope no Vega….not one of my fave cars. :P

  3. I’ll look around for that picture. Right now my office is a mess and we open a show soon, but I’ll work on it. Oh, and maybe ‘big’ hair isn’t quite right- it was more of a girl mullet. Ah, the ’80′s.

    +++ Sweet, you send it I’ll post it. ;)

  4. 1958 cream colored corvette convertible is high on my list. Also 1967 red alfa romeo spyder.

    I can like a porsche 911. My dad had one, and I’ve never forgiven him for getting rid of it. I loved that car.

    +++ Yeppers those are some nice ones!
