    I have noticed that very few people out there drive their "classic" cars or hot rods on a regular basis. I want to know how many of you out there actually drive your vehicles on a daily basis and what it is you drive.

    How? I am terrible with computers
     
  5. I drive my 29 Hudson most days. The one in my avatar. I made it look old, but its on an 82 chassis, and has a Holden six in it. Not really Hamb friendly, but its fun.

    I've put over 10,000 miles on my Austin gasser in two years. Since I'm retired I don't drive it to work, but it gets driven a lot!

    That's a pretty truck. Life would be good if I drove something like that everyday.

    This '57 Fury has been my daily driver for better than ten years. I have driven it across the country, and all over the west. Fairly economical, as long as I keep my foot out of the dual carbs.

    That's what I was thinking as well...

    And mine is not a true daily driver, but I do drive it a couple times a week.
     
  17. I have my '41 out most every day. Drive to and from work at least 4 days a week. [​IMG]

    My 52 F1 is my daily since I finished it about a year ago. On real cold days, for this part of the planet anyway, I switch to the OT Dodge so I have a heater that actually puts out enough air to warm the cab, but other than that, its the F1. Love it.
