The car you miss the most. - Page 6

I'd have to say that I miss my 2018 Camaro SS 1LE quite a bit. It was one of the best driving and ownership experiences I've ever had.

genxer · 05-07-2020, 11:55 AM

RCSB 4.3 S10 Baja. I was a kid once. It would've been nicer if it had ZR2 suspension.

josephr25 · 05-08-2020, 11:39 AM

1992 SC400, but that thing was basically on its death bed by the time I got rid of it. I wish the previous owner took a lot better care of it too

I miss my 1978 Camaro Type LT, mainly for sentimental value. It was my first car, my high school ride, and I learned alot about cars with it. I don't necessarily miss the ride/handling but the car was very clean for a soft bumper, late 2nd gen Camaro.
Sometimes I wonder where it's located now. Is it even on the road still? Is it crashed? If it's still on the road, I don't think I want to see it. I kept it very clean, washed, and maintained. I doubt the owner(s) after me maintained it the same way.

2. 1959 Ford Fairlane (used/sold)
3. 1966 GTO (used/sold)
4. 1973 1/2 Ton Chevy PU. (new/sold)
5. 1967 Chevy Impala (used/parent's old car/sold)
6. 1967 International Scout 800 (used/ still have it!)
7. 1984 3/4 Ton HD Chevy PU (new/stolen, never recovered)
8. 1988 1 Ton GMC Dually (new/sold)
9. 1985 Nissan 300ZX (used/sold)
10. 2004 Chevy Avalanche (new/totaled in wreck)
11. 1995 Ford Explorer (used/sold)
10. 2000 GMC Z/71 4wd PU (used/still have it)
11. 2011 Camaro (new/still have it)
12. 2017 Chevy Impala (new/still have it)

Sorry for the list, but it got me thinking....lol....
I miss them all that I sold or no longer have, but only one I wish I never would have sold was the '67 Impala. A close second was the '04 Avalanche. That was my favorite of all the trucks I had.

I had a 2001 Trans Am ws6. Sold it and regretted it everyday.

So I now went out and bought a 2002 ws6 with 30,000 miles a few months back and this one isn't going anywhere.

Chutzpah · 05-10-2020, 09:50 PM

1986 Mustang GT with T-tops and manual transmission. Loved that car!!

I purposely didn’t wash the inner hatchback window for a year or so. Every time the windows would fog up, you could see my girls “foot” impressions on the glass. Loved poking fun at her about it. Those were days.

Pics of either TA? Love the 4th gens - I'm a Camaro guy, but would kill for a 30th TA WS6 - M6.

The car I miss the most is a 1968 DodgeR/T, canary yellow w/black interior.Red stripe Firestone Wide Ovals,F-70-14's. I worked three jobs the summer between grades 11 & 12 in '69 to buy this R/T @ Cicero Dodge.I worked on 549cuin. international plows,7am-4pm at the state garage corner of Taft & South bay,n.syracuse,then 5pm-10pm Clancy's Silver Star on main st.n.Syracuse OR 6pm- 1am McDonnalds on Rt 11 across from now Airport Plaza,n.Syracuse. Like a line from a Harry Chapin song goes,"Learned about Love in the back of a Dodge" that's part of the memories.The car was fast for then,I think the highest price for gas was $.43 a gal.for Sunoco 260 Hightest. I learned that a mechanic 's son,last name Keller had traded the R/T @ Cicero dodge.The mechanic worked at the state garage I worked at.Checked out the car, looking for a hole under the dash for a rear speaker reverb,that verified it was his son's.Like most of us we wish we had those cars back.Loved running to Green Lakes park on days off.

I looked at one during the F-body hiatus. Red WS6 convertible but they wanted too much for it. A timeless design IMO. The snout just looks mean.

FarmerFran · 05-11-2020, 02:25 PM

I miss my heavily modified 2004 GTO. It would run high 11s on a 1.5 60' time. Big ass cam, heads, headers, full exhaust, etc... that thing was a blast.

Lots of work on that TA Sinister! I really like the Pontiac blue block paint, nice touch.

I still have my Camaro, so didn't originally post pics, but here are a couple - coming up on 20 years of ownership in August.
