Never had anything but a classic as a daily driver.

The 68 is just too thirsty to use as a daily (87 Kms of a full 55litre tank).

But I am currently seriously looking to sell my 04 HSV (Holden) Grange for one of the 3 below.

Note not the actual cars below, 2 of those belong to guys on here, but reasonable versions of the same, good 20 footer paint jobs and would swap to brand new running gear (LS3 drivelines).....

Buick - looks stunning, gorgeous but rare hard to find and not cheap in good condition.

Lincoln, looks sinister, tough, cheaper to find but it's a Ford....

Olds Jetstar 88 Coupe - I love these, but super rare, in fact only ever seen 1 for sale


I perosnally think the Lincoln would suit better for daily use (and family / kids) and parked outside....

yes my nice car that i drive most of the time is a classic !!
i stopped buying nice daily drivers they depreciate to much!!
last nice car i had a 330ci got it for 27g and sold it 3 or 4 years later for 8 or 9 grand lost close to 20g !!! classics don't do that they appreciate!!!

I have a 70 mile round trip to work, so i would be broke shortly. Thinking of going ls so i can drive it to work occasionally without having to stop for gas on the way.

i use drive my 66 pickup everyday....its not no show winner but looks good.....it just mainly drove work and back not to many other places...my camaro is mostly only a weekend car but i do drive her!

Why have it if you don't drive it
 

Can't afford paying another $30K and interest for another new car. Toyota wanted $350 to change 4 spark plugs when my Camry broke down on a recent trip. So I'm finishing up my easy to fix 57 Chevy PU and that's what we will be driving. I have anti-theft built into it and it's insured. Can't see babying a car to the point where I'm afraid to drive the darn thing.

I have always wanted to build a muscle car, with creature comforts for a daily driver.

My wife thinks another fun one would be a Nomad, or old Suburbun, instead of the mini van we have.

The old cars just have style that the new ones don't.

True story...took my 9 y.o. daughter to her first Good Guys show a couple of years ago. As we were walking in, she pulls me over to a beautiful PT 70 Chevelle and stares at it in amazement (I did too :) ). She loks up at me and says, "Dad I just love these old old cars! They have so much style!" Just then an old guy (coulda been Weld) walks up to me and says, "where'd you get a daughter like that?" I reply, "it's in her blood." He then hands me two free passes to get in.

Daughter now wants a Chevelle for her 16th B-Day. Big block of course...

You had better get to work on a Chevelle then. :yes:

Yeah, James said he had a spot in front of certain Camaro if I wanted it...:lol:
