Replying to: texases (Jul 24, 2008 12:36 pm) I saw a Renault Encore moving under it's own power tonight. It looked like it was in good shape.

| ...a red 1990 Buick Park Avenue! They changed the hood ornament from the rectangle with a slash through it to a red, white, and blue tri-shield. At first glance the car looked good until I saw the very tattered grey leather interior. The paint was good, but the interior awful. The interior on my car looks great, but the paint is awful. Of course if I had both cars and swapped the interiors, you'd end up with a rather tacky-looking red car with a blue plush interior. | |

while driving across Vermont: 1964 Pontiac Grand Prix, sitting in a weed-filled lot on the outskirts of Brattleboro. Badly faded dark blue paint, these were favorites of mine and it was sad to see it in this condition but I didn't notice any obvious rust. 1962-63 Falcon Convertible, very nice, top down, leading a stack of cars east of Bennington, couldn't get close enough to tell if it was a Futura 6 or Sprint V8 but it definitely had the extra chrome of a higher end version. |

Replying to: andys120 (Jul 25, 2008 6:22 pm) Anyway, for 1972, in net hp, the 307 was down to 130 hp regardless of the car, so I'm guessing only the 2-bbl was available. I kinda like that '74 Dodge Coronet copcar. It just has sort of a tough, industrial, no-nonsense look about it. No pretense at all, just an honest workhorse. Oh, and that '61 Catalina Ventura? That sucker's within maybe 1.5-2 hours from me, and awfully tempting! I think the '61 is actually my favorite 60's Pontiac, with the '67 being a close second. Only thing is, '61's are worth a LOT more than '67's, which is probably why I ended up with a '67. Dammit Fintail, why must you tempt me so? Don't make me raid my home equity, now!
