The Car Club
Well I have decided to open a club on here  . This club is for car nuts . This is the place to talk about your dream cars for debate the old argument "Ford VS Chevy".
So I will start the conversation. Which car do yall prefer restored classics or hot rod muscle cars?

Re: The Car Club
Since this was what my very first car looked like, I'm going to have to go with muscle.
Actually it was my dad's, I drove it all the time. I had no clue just how cool I was in this car. Transmission couldn't handle the weight of the car though.
But that baby could cruise!

My dad would love that! His eyes get all misty when he sees one like it driving down the road.

Re: The Car Club
My first car was a snot-green 1972 Datsun 510 wagon. Like all Datsuns, it would never die. It had over 300,000 miles when we junked it, and it wasn't in the junkyard a week before someone bought it.
The most reliable car I ever had was a 1973 Volkswagen Beetle that I bought for $400 in 1991 and drove non-stop for eight years before giving it to my brother (it still runs!).

I think everyone has a memory of either owning a Beetle or cruising around in a friend's Beetle. I had a friend in high school who had a yellow one, we could fit about 8 people in that thing!

Once in seminary, I had four Vietnamese guys in the back of my Bug and two Samoans sharing the front seat.

At first glance, I thought you meant Samurai's -  - I thought you sure beat us by a mile!

Samoans are usually much larger than Samurais.
Worst car I ever had: 1973 Ford Pinto.
