After months of looking into the subject, I think I've figured out my "dream car" - a 1970 Chevy Monte Carlo, raven black with chrome features, automatic transmission, 2 wheel drive. And while not absolutely necessary, a red interior would be a nice touch (as seen in the last photo, although that's a 1974 model) (also the car shown in the first three photos has custom rims). These are not my pictures, I found these on carsforsale.com.
If I win the lottery, this will be mine!

Another good one are the 1970's Cadillac Eldorados. Love these. Lean, mean, good-looking machine! Black would be my color of choice.

Number of downloads: 0Difficult to call nearly 3 tons of automobile 'lean'. A friend had a Eldo' convertible - Land Yacht is a more fitting description. While they do have classic lines, they were nowhere near small or light. -------------------- Never too old to have a happy childhood! ....................Don't put an age limit on your dreams! |

But it has a long body that isn't overly chunky, hence why I called it lean. -------------------- Temecula Seasonal Precipitation 2012-2013: 7.27" (-6.52") Normal to-date precipitation: 13.79" East Murrieta Seasonal Precipitation 2012-2013: 7.11" Season began July 1st, 2012.

A 1978 Ford Thunderbird - my Dad drove this beast around L.A. from 1978 through 1991, when he finally sold it. I read on Wikipedia that this generation of t-bird was the most popular (or at least sold the most).
