Decisions, decisions, decisions!

s/c ss · 10-29-2016, 11:37 AM

I'm in the market for a car but I'm having troubles making a decision on what to do. I have 4 very different cars on my list but for very different reasons. I'm hoping to hear some input. In no particular order, here they are!
1: Another ZL1 (red), strictly for track use.
2: Porsche 911 GT, have always wanted one
3: 1969 Chevelle, my childhood dream car
4: Dodge Challenger, I know I'll catch crap
For this one but they are just bad ass looking.

Chevelle, sexiest car ever made

Can't go wrong with any of those. Good luck on your decision.

It is one of my very favorite old school muscle cars! I use to draw them all the time while in school. Black with red interior, or red with red interior, pro touring look for sure!

Go with the childhood dream.

The question is what year Challenger are you looking at? I used to own a 1971 and sold it 10 years ago. I still kick myself for selling it. Anyways, out o that list if its an old Challenger I would go for that myself although the Chevelle is a good choice too. BTW, my uncle used to own a black 1969 Chevelle SS 396 (L78 engine), 4 speed, and 4.10 gears. Looked exactly like this one pictured below and had black interior.

Honestly, I really dig the new Challengers. I do like the old ones too but those aren't me and they are expensive.
Your Uncle's Chevelle is amazing. Love it. The Chevelle I'm looking for does not need matching numbers as I want to "make it my own". I'm thinking a 396, 502 or maybe even a 383. Lowered for sure. I thought of even changing out the rear tail end from a 72 Chevelle. 69 front end, 72 rear end. That will get some people scratching their heads. LOL.

I actually like the tail treatment on the 68s and 69s as is but, then again that's just my opinion. I would say at this point to go with the '69 Chevelle. If you're not worried about numbers matching maybe even consider a Malibu as well.
