I helped a friend restore a Convertible, is a blast to drive slowly with V-8 soundtrack

Pros — Idle living, sex appeal, class, sophiscation, this car has it all
Cons — umm, handling tends to drag doorhandles on the pavement, manual drum brakes are iffy at best, can't leave it without worrying about it.

The '71 Chevelle was a car that stood in the shadows of the 1970 model for many many years, but latley it has been getting more attention and respect as one of Chevrolets true classics.  It may not have carried the massive Horsepower over from 1970, but it definaltly kept the sleek and classic muscle car body lines.  This car is great for any Classic car lover who wants a fun reliable old car that has loads of aftermarket parts available all over the USA and Canada.

Pros — Awesome looks and sound, tonnes of power, just a pure classic!
Cons — Fuel consumption! Braking is hard with the big motor...needs discs!

I've had this car since I was 14 & have been restoring when I can afford to.

Pros — 350 built to race
Cons — Bench seat, needs higher octane fuel to run properly, not a good car to drive at the lake
