2. '70 Dodge Challenger - had for 1 year, lost in my divorce
3. '72 Cutlass Supreme - had for 2 years, it looked like crap, but was fast
4. '72 Chevelle Malibu, Dart 400 - have had for over 16 yrs with many more to come

I got to drive quite a few across the auction block a few years back when our car club did classic car auctions . The biggest pile was a Magnum Ferrari ,the best one was a split window vette .
