Any car nerds here?
Which modern or vintage supercar do you drive?
Which cars do you desire to own and why?
Anyone playing the allocation chess game?

Lookin for a '71 Cuda
Dream car
Wish we had one of those. My dad worked for Chrysler so we had cars like Scamps, Darts,Valients, and a bunch or Cordobas but never a Cuda to my knowledge(was very young then).

On another note, it is very hard to get people to work on cars(especially older but sometimes even the newer) these days. I had to almost beg a suspension shop to put new bushings on my 1996 XR7 Cougar.
These shops are always swamped and do not need any new business.

So True, i know the guymat my garage really well as I’ve been going there for 20+ years. He’s always getting asked to do work on older vehicles, 30+ years old. He turns most of it down because the older the car gets that harder it is to just change one or two parts with out 2 or 3 more just falling apart, usually weeks to get parts, if they aren’t OEM parts they don’t always fit right. Always says it’s way more hassle than what it’s worth. The only thing keeping me from buying a late 60s or early 70s classic is I know I don’t have anywhere near the skills to keep it running.

How do you store these vehicles in the winter?
Both vehicles are in a temp/humidity controlled garage at my place in Scottsdale, AZ

1971 Camaro sitting in the garage. Had it since high school.

I'd like to add a 1971 Corvette Stingray.

I like the Euro classics but it's either I sleep in the car or admire from a far.
