Antique/Vintage Cars?
I wondered if anyone here has the "car bug?" Here's my ride, a 1964 Buick Wildcat. It's a pretty rare car, only 366 made in 1964 had the 425 CID engine with two four-barrel Carter AFB carbs. Of the 366, about 250 had ST400 automatics and the rest four speed manuals.

Wayne,
Beautiful ride...takes me back to my father's garage! He had an alignment/brake/tune-up shop in Milwaukee, and I spent my high school summers from 1974-78 working with him. Of course, that was when you could open the hood, and have a pretty good idea what may need work, without the sophisticated OBD computers you need now!
Having the car bug is a great hobby, I believe. I'm into a different sub-genre, the Porsche/BMW route. Currently, have a '72 914 2.0 liter, and a 2000 BMW M5...

]Nice car. Bet it rides good too.
My avatar is a 68 Firebird. It has a stroked 428 with Edelbrock heads, roller cam and rockers, Muncie 4-speed and posi out back.
The bug is addictive but loads of fun.
