Two cars I wish I still had: 1. 1956 Chevrolet 2 dr. H.T., solid red with 225 HP dual four barrel engine, bought new in 1956. 2. 1932, 389ci Pontiac powered 1932 F**d roadster, when I stripped the body for paint the words " St. Louis Stock Car Racing Association" were etched on the drivers side door. The car has resurfaced here in town after a forty years absence.My wife also yearns for her 1995 Impala SS.

My last new car. 1957 Bel Air hardtop, 245 HP dual 4 Bbl. that I "up graded" to overdrive. No reason to sell it in 1959 other than I owned it for more than 2 years.

In the early 50's it was the procedure to trade cars about every two years. This corresponded with the model changes. 1958 came along and messed up that routine.

A 1964 Chev Impala Conv, red with white top and red trim. I bought it as soon as I was offered a job after I graduated from college. My first new car. It was around $2900. After my dp I had payments of $62 a month.

Traded it in on a 1965 Mustang conv, red with black trim and white top.

Traded the Mustang in on a 1966 Chev Impala 2dr HT, white with black trim.

Wish I'd kept all of them, but the 1964 was my favorite.

Love this Thread.Let's see the three I miss most.
1967 Chevelle SS
1970 Chevelle SS Convertible
1969 Superbee RT Convertible
It still hurts everytime I kick myself.

I suppose I could get in on this.
#1, A 69 Boss 429 mustang in 1983. Bought it for 6500, sold it for 7500 after 2 or 3 years. Duh.
#2, A 73 455 super duty TA.

55 Olds super 88 convertible and 39 Plymouth sedan delivery,both were kind of rough but have the skills and time to redo them now.

1955 chevy v8 3 speed 2 door. 1956 chevy v8 auto 4 door hardtop. 2 one blue one one black 1966 buick gran sport cov.

I wish I had all of them, count around 32, but I may have missed a couple. The top 3 would probably be: '32 chevy coupe, '49 chevy fleetline , '77 T bird, (yeah I know it's a F**d), but I loved that car! That is not counting the ones I have now: '33 chevy coupe, '37 chevy master sport sedan, '48 fleetline aero sedan plus my daily drivers.

I have many, here are some.(Keep in mind,these cars were a dime a dozen back then)

55 2dr Belair H/T (parted out junked)
57 4dr sw LOADED! padded dash, fact.a/c, windows, seats,ect.(parted out junked)
57 convertible #@*% (This was given to me free with no motor or trans.) I had absolutely no place to keep it and knew then I would some day regret it.
My 68 Caprice! Also loaded with every special option except cruse. Out of fear, I sold it in the 74 "gas shortage".
