Miss the 70s road sofas ?

I miss my '34 ford -- the '70's had too many smog devices that did not work -
Since the smog nazis were not going to go away and stromberg 97 were gone the best thing that happened was electronic fuel injection --

Used to have a 67 Buick Lasabre , could stretch my daughter out on the front seat between my wife and I. (Pre car seat days) most comfortable road car I ever owned. Unfortunately the Iran oil crisis hit, you had to wait in line to get a few gallons of gas. So at 8 miles to the gallon it had to go.

Is that one of those kit cars? Uses a VW bug engine?

Haha. Actually has a fuel injected 5.0. Includes a number dispenser for all the people that want a ride

Memories........ My first car was a 1970 Mercury Cougar. I had a 70 Impala 4 door, 70 Plymouth Super Bee, and a 74 Chrysler Newport. The Newport was a true land barge. The trunk was bigger than a Miata. I still have my 73 Charger SE that I got in 1980. Sadly it needs to be rebuilt.

My Parents had the Grey Ford T Bird.

I bought a grey '78 T-Bird from my granddad around 89-90, 351/Mod. Rode like a dream but only got about 11 mpg. Lol!

Bought a 67 Chrysler for $50 4 door sled, it was great for parties.

You're not lyiing! College roommate had one about that vintage. I have a vague memory of trying to see how many people could fit in the trunk one night. I think we lost count.

I had a 68 Bonneville - lots of fun in that barge. Coldest ac I ever owned to this day.
