My Chevelle (currently not pictured) is a rags-to-riches story in car form.  Bought by my uncle for its rear-end in 1980, it was then bought by my dad, who put a new rear-end, engine and transmission in it.  He drove it until 1988, when the reverse gear went and he stopped caring, and it deteriorated in a yard and a driveway until 2002, when he and I (mostly) restored it.  It's not stock by any means, as it has a drag suspension on it, since it was a drag car in the sixties and seventies.  Since it only went a quarter-mile at a time, it only has ~6,000 miles on it.  I don't live where the car is stored, so I only get the chance to drive it a handful of times a year, but I love it.

Pros — Bitchin' engine, unique, loud, hard to drive for anyone but me, looks great considering what it's been through.
Cons — Not finished, five-and-a-half years after the fact, plenty of non-working features, no weatherstripping, I can't drive it as much as I want, 8.3 miles-per- gallon.

327 engine with 400 trans.  Convertible top and handle much better than I expected.  Power...WOW.

Pros — Handles like a new car on the straight away and will put you back in the seat.
