Replying to: vwbussmann (Jun 13, 2006 8:35 pm) Make sure that first gear isn't noisy...typical issue with MM. And don't expect to drive on a modern freeway without major anxiety. My opinion: A nice "ice cream car" to take the kids 4 blocks to the store. |

| red 1966 Dodge Dart 270 two-door. It kind of had a fastback roof. | |

a bright yellow TR-6, chrome bumper (no black nodes). Very shiny. This has always been my favorite old sports car for some reason. I just really like them.

Replying to: stickguy (Jun 14, 2006 10:50 am) BMW 2002 probably a 1975 or 76 as it looked kind of dumpy and was in rough shape. Subaru SVX in very nice shape. I always liked that car pity it wasn't made with a manual and a little bit lighter. For Torino Cobra. Also very nice with period correct wheels and lots of grumbly exhaust. Side note for Shifty. My email is screwed up for some reason and I can't log into it, which is very bad because it probably means I am losing money, I should know something about that D110 tomorrow. |

I saw a pristine bustleback yesterday. It was single tone grey, and surprisingly enough it had no carriage or vinyl top, no fake RR grille, no continental kit or trunk straps...it was very uncluttered (save for the basic design). I'm sure they drive terribly and I know 1980 is the only year you want...but I kind of like them.

Replying to: fintail (Jun 16, 2006 9:57 am) I did drive one that was at a used car lot, oh, about 15-16 years ago. It wasn't an '80 though. I forget the year, but it had the aluminum 4.1. Its handling didn't do anything to scare me, but then again, I was used to bigger cars like that anyway. Funny though, leave it to the domestics to come up with something that's FWD, has an independent rear suspension, 4-wheel disc brakes, and STILL gets ragged on!

I was watching the old James Bond flic last night (THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN" and it seems that AMC sold a lot of cars in thailand, in the 1970's. i once heard that this was because the thais hated the japanese-and would not allow the importation of japanese cars. so is thailand the place to go to buy an old AMC? is it an asian version of Cuba (where old American cars stay alive)?
