Re: Best Classic Car Ever?

Thats a hard question to answer. Im going with 60's Camaros. But really GM has made a TON of great classics.

Re: Best Classic Car Ever?

The original Ford Mustang was introduced as a 1964 1/2. Ford liked to do this in the '60's, since a model that was introduced mid-model-year would get undivided attention, while those that came out at the beginning of the model year often got lost among the other new models. The original Mustang was essentially unchanged for the 1965 and 1966 model years. Changes included increased the V8 from 260 ci to 289, and changing the front lip of the hood. The '67&'68 models have different taillights, and are designed to accept the big-block V8 engines. The '69 models look completely different.

Yah, stexch those are some great cars there - the XKE is certainly up there for me too. It is rather hard to pick a favorite, a classic car buff friend of mine once said people tend to like cars from the decade they grew up in. Although I am kinda partial to classics from the 60's which is a bit before my time.
