My Dad's choice in cars was always "this close" to a classic:
1956 Chevy 210, 4-door. Given away in 1969 to a guy as payment for painting our house.
1964 Chevy Chevelle.....station wagon. Totaled in 1969 during a family vacation. I still have the scars.
1969 Ford Ranch Wagon. 390 2-barrel as opposed to a 428. The vehicle I borrowed to drive in high school.
1964 Chevy Chevelle, 2 door. 283, Powerglide. Replaced the '56. Stolen out of the driveway 3 months before I started Driver's Ed. Would have been my high school car.
1974 Plymouth Duster.....straight 6. Replaced the 2nd Chevelle.
Choices got worse after that.
2012 Mustang Boss 302 #1918, Competition Orange. FGF replacement 2006 Mustang V6 Pony, Vista Blue. Factory ordered. 2019 BMW X3 (Titled to the wife, but I'm always driving it for her. So I'm claiming it) Old projects, gone but not forgotten: 1967 FB 400, original CA car. After 22 years of work, trashed by the guy who was supposed to paint it. I had to sell it. 1980 Turbo Trans Am 1970 Mustang fastback, 351C 4Bbl, auto 1988 Mustang GT, 5 speed 1983 F-150 4x4, built 302 1994 Chevy K2500 HD 4x4, 454 TBI
