Some vehicles I want to rub against

If I had that on video and she was mine, the dent wouldnt phase me one minute
My beater rides do get worked hard, but only when they do something productive. I would have a problem with some silly woman dancing on my $1k P/U hood... just for a stupid video clip.

I suppose it's a good thing I don't have children.:D

Yeah but that's a $1000 pickup, not some POS BMW. Who cares about those?
 
I see your point and agree. I think it all boils down to diversity of tastes but I personally don't practice loyalty to extremes. You could reasonably argue that I am not a Mopar guy as I like A, C, Y but dislike B, E while on the other hand I like barges that were produced by other makes.
How can you not like B-bodies???

Generally speaking I like big barges and don't have any interest in the smaller cars, with a small handful of exceptions. I do not have much interest in speed and performance either. As I mentioned earlier it all boils down to diversity of tastes but I honestly can't come up with a B-Body I'd want. And besides, too many of them were restored at the expense of C's, which I consider works of art :mad:. If Chrysler had never produced C-Bodies, I'd probably be rubbing against Continentals, or a Marauder X100. ..... OR ........

Interesting, had to look this one up. Big I imagine to most European makes of the time. Did you own one at some point?

it's kind of a Mopar since it's 383 Chrysler powered. They're rare and very expensive. One showed up in the 1990's that I could have had but decided against it due to the same eternal storage issue. Look at the styling of the rear......they clearly copied it from my 2002 Lincoln TC

Interesting, I thought I was the only guy who liked the 72 Chev 2 door - here's my 72 Bel Air Sport Coupe (Canada only car) from back in 1980... wish I still had it.

I think the '72 had the cleanest front of the big Chevies. 1972 is my favorite year for many cars, especially those of the Mopar family.
I had a brown 72 4 dr... I was T-boned at an intersection by a pickup on driver side. No seatbelt on. Both totaled. Lucky...But, that tank Impala probably saved me.

Love it.... most of my acquaintances were Chevy guys. One had a 72 Impala, Blue two door with a factory 402. That thing would spin the tires all day.

I love the nose on a 72 but my favorites are the 67-69s with the 8 being the top cheese
