I'm probably a little weird here since I've had a 1969 Stingray convertible with a 427/4 speed and a 1960 Impala with a 409 (originally a 348) but here goes for my favorites:

1973 Pontiac GTO
1977 Pontiac LeMans Enforcer
1991 Pontiac Sunbird convertible (slowest car I ever owned but very fun)
2001 Pontiac Aztek

And the winner is: 2001 Pontiac Aztek. How the hell I fell in love with one of the most hated cars ever made is beyond me but I did and I would own another in a nanosecond.

.........For the record, what little money I earned went into my cars back then, not clothes, lol.

I see old pics of myself with those short shorts back then and cringe. That was the style at the time, now they are just gay looking.

I always wanted a 4x4 Chevy Luv, the body style is unique and I just liked them as a whole. Wish I could snag that 396 out of that truck though. I'd like to rock a 396 in Crusty Biscuit.

I'll pitch in...1971 Z28/RS Camaro
1968 Carroll Shelby built 428 SCJ GT Mustang (race car built for dealers race program.)
1973 Pontiac Lemans Sport Coupe GT (Never saw another one like it!)

I just wish I knew how to track down previously owned vehicles w/o VIN numbers!!! I'd be wildly more financially better off than I am now. Mustang collector told me he'd give me $50K for that Mustang if it was a rusted out shell as long as it had the VIN tags and sub-frame! Turns out Shelby only made a 163-167 of those, according to him.

Favorites (in order)....

1984 Monte Carlo SS
1986 Chevy K10 w/406 SBC
1982 Jaguar XJS
1967 Volvo 220 Amazon

The Monte had ALOT of sentimental value to me - my Dad helped me get it and he's gone now. Would love to get it back but no idea how to find it (I know the town its in). The 406SBC was a blast to drive. The Jag was so heavy you didn't realize you were doing 100mph...plus it was a really smooth ride. The Amazon was an all around odd but unique car. Reminds me more of a 53 Mercury than a Swedish meatball. I had intended on taking its wussy 1.8L lawnmower motor out and swapping in an Ecotec from a Solstice.....but lost the shop I was using and had no room to store anything so it all went to new homes.

I'm hoping to build my current K20 to be the new number 2 (and knock the 220 off the list). The Monte will always be #1. Too many great memories in that one.

I've got it all. Every time have an Autocheck acct, I run the VIN and its still where the guy that bought it from me in '07 was. I think Haggerty offered - or did offer - some sort of thing to find it, but doesn't now.

I like the k5 of that era, something about the rounded wheel wells, just looks sexy with the right tire-wheel-combo.
