Favorite Cars From the Past
From all the cars you've previously owned.
If you could have only one of them back which one would it be?
First Choice?
Second choice?
Third choice?
===========================
My choices are as follows
1* 1960 Chevy Impala Convertible:Of all the cars I've previously owned.
If I could only have one of them back it would have to be the Black 1960 Chevy Impala Convertible with the white rag top and the red and white interior.
It was one sharp looking machine and a real mover with the 348 engine with 3 duces and a racing cam.

2* 1971Chevelle Malabu Convertible: The closest picture to it that I could find on the net

3* 1950 chevy: This one has a special place in my hart as one of these was my first car.

**************
What my Mom learned to drive.
Dad had a 39 6 cyl. stick shift 4 door sedan.3Rd.car I remember him having when I was a kid.
His first car that I remember when I was a kid was a 1931 Chevy sedan.
Second one was the 1933 Chevy Coupe. It was a medium green had a 6 cyl. motor and the gearshift was on the floor. It was the first car he could park at the house because prior to that there was no street or road going to the property. The road ended at the edge of a deep hollow. to get to the house you had to walk down into the 100 foot hollow then up the other side to the house.
I was fascinated by that car and would love to have one of them restored. It would be a real rarity. I have never seen another one of these 33 Chevys, while model a fords are a dime a dozen. Took half a day to make a 150 mile trip from here to Canton Ohio. That wasn't bad - what was bad was the time we made the trip in the freezing cold during the dead of winter with one of the door windows missing and no heater in the car. This is the car I ran over my cousins fingers with on one of those trips to Canton. Boy did I get it from dear old dad for that one.

My wifes parents had a 1966 Chevelle around the time we got married.
Nothing fancy but very nice.
Was easy to handle and a pleasure to drive.

More good memories.
Frank.
===============
More memories
1*My 1960 Chevy Impala convertible had 1961 Chevy impala full wheel covers on it when I bought the car in 1962.
Three guys that I knew back then bought new 1960 Impala convertibles.
Gary Schaffer got a bright red one with a white top-His dad owned a standard oil service station. His dad Wayne later became one of our county commissioners and was one for many years there after. He recently passed away.
Darrell Marshall who graduated high school the year before I did bought a beautiful blue one with a white top. A few years later he purchased the local Olsdsmobile dealer ship operating it until a few years ago.
Alvie Thomas ( who bought the black one That I ended up buying off a used car lot in 1962 ) worked at the Mom and Pop gas station we called the stadium service station as it was right across the street from the foot ball stadium.
I loved these 3 convertibles and would have given anything to own one of them.
Little did I know The black one would be mine 2 short years later. Picked it up at the used car lot for $1900. What a steel.
>>It was a 3 speed on the column. Had a beautiful red and white interior.
348 engine with 3 carburetors and a racing Cam with dual exhaust.
Also had fender skirts and twin radio antennas on the rear fenders.
A real flashy car.
It was tricky getting those 3 Carbs synchronized so I always took it to Lee Batten a stock car builder and driver to get the Carbs adjusted and synchronized.
2*My uncle had 3 or 4 51 fords. One of them he bought new. The thing that set the 51 of from the 49 and 50 was the double bullet grill compared to the single bullet 49 and 50.
3*1950 Chevy 6 Cyl 4 door sedan, my first car, paid 250 bucks for it in 58 . Kept it till 1964 or 1965 .
