I'm not sure it's my absolute favorite but a 63/65 Riv is in my top five of "I want one bad" list of cars. I should have bought a nice one when they were affordable and available and kept it.
Great road cars for jumping in and making a run to Joplin for the HAMB drags though.

If you have a fuel tanker to follow you maybe. My Father's '64 Riv is horrible on gas and it's 100% as OE.

"What’s yours? What’s the one car that you always find your mind going back to?"
I will be the first (of I am sure many) to say the 1932 Ford, specifically a roadster.

A 59 Impala is on my short list of cars to own before I die... Followed closely by a 63-65 Riviera...
![]() This one's headlights were hidden where the parking lights would be... not a hidden light 65 model... ![]() And a 61-64 Lincoln...

It is obvious that our faves are something we have owned or were close to a one time. I have had some dandys in my long affair with the automobiles and would like to have my 57 Nomad, traded a 60 Falcon four door painted with a roller for it. The Nomad was glorious with about every option available, p.s.,p.b., powerglide, powerpack, electric windows, seats, factory air, auto headlight dimmer, black and silver interior and black exterior with a white top, wonderbar radio, full hubcaps with factory tri bar spinners. Yep, a loota stuff, a big "D", and I ain't talkin Dallas tore it from my grips. But what the hell, just materilistic foo foo. Maybe I wouldn't have enjoyed the dozens of other rides I was fortunate to own. And the beat goes on. If you don't love them Riv's, something is real wrong! ~sololobo~

You know the real reason is your man-crush on Patrick Swayze in Roadhouse...
