    O/T, but I've had two '74s. A Ford F250 4x4 and my current Chevy C10 Cheyenne.

    I had a 65 Chevy panel truck that I sold back to to my friend who owned it over 20 years. He was so happy to get it back. I knew when I bought it he really didn't really want to sell it. I had it a couple years. I bought my 29 Ford with the money. IMG_0849.jpg

    Hard to do Willy’s, Austin, and Ford Jeeps were about it for 1944 And I’m not really interested.

    1950 here, one of the reasons I bought this. As somebody here said, an old car for an old man. I've been driving it a lot now after a couple years:

    Just yesterday I snooped through the original Protecto-Plate package for my Chevelle. It was built six days before I was born.

    Never owned a ‘47 anything, would love to have a ‘47 Chevy 1/2 ton.some day. But at 72, it is highly unlikely.

    I'll play... I have a '56 Meteor Rideau Victoria. '56 was a great year to be born, great cars, good wine, but bad for the Suez Canal.

  23. I've had 56' and 57' Chevys but never 55', just never found one to buy, I like them all but was never lucky enough to find one to buy, kinda bumm's me out, but have had my share of COOL cars, some just bought to make money to build others so they got finished.

    Not really a fat fender guy, so a '48 is probably not in the cards for me.

    Nope, was born in '52 and have owned a '51 Ford convert and a '53 F-100. In my opinion, there isn't anything from 1952 that appeals to me...it wasn't a very good year for cars. And if you ask my Mom, it wasn't a very good year for kids either (I was a real pain in the ass as a kid):p
