Nominate a car for tOfficial vehicle of tSwil

I.B. had a great idea in another thread.

Only qualifier is that it must be from your year of birth.  Bob, you are allowed to nominate a bike.  Goose you're allowed to nominate a horse drawn carriage.

I give to you........The 1964 Ford Shelby Daytona Coupe

1961 thunderbird. Kingston, I have a 64 hard top thunderbird. Baby blue with a black top.

1956 Nash Metropolitan

Do you drive that when selling Avon products?

I like it, or something a few years earlier. Or a similar 1960-63 Ford Falcon ragtop.

Let’s get Pantry in a late 60s microbus. He needs to let loose his inner hippie.

I was about to nominate this over the great group of 1960 ragtops - Corvette, Cadillac, Impala, Electra - some real beauties.   But in order to get OTPT and Cameron onboard with my choice:



Edited to add: That's a 1960 model.

Get that with more windows and I’m all in.

Having been born in 2002 I’m actually not a millennial

I followed the rules.

Thank you Wags.

2008 dodge caravan 

You people are old as fuck.

I'm neither a boomer or millennial. So...



but you all weiners.

76 Trans Am.

The inherent problem here is why would the swills official car be based on any of your birth years? The swills birth year is 2014. I nominate this used 2014 Chevy Malibu

1974 Dodge Monaco.

Particularly, this one:



It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.

And the siren made for the open spaces of WY.

This here is The Titanic. It was built in 1909, same year I was born. By that count, that makes me the 5th oldest poster on tSwill behind GreenWay, Wags, Goose, and Pantry. I believe Floyd was born in 1910.

Grew up 2 miles from the GM Tech Center.  Best friend's dad worked there and eventually bought a '59 Corvette convertible.  Was no where near fast by today's standards but was sleek and cool.  That model still is.

Still one of my favorite cars, and I’m not much into ‘vettes.

I thought Pantry was younger than he really is.

Just play along buttercup.

Since I predate the Pacer by a year or 2, I'll go with this Renault 900.
You can't tell whether it's coming or going, like ....most of you

After that picture of the Trans Am, I'm coming. Nice sled though.

1962 Aston Martin DB4GT, rag top. If Sunbeam has come out with the Tiger before ‘65, I’d’ve considered that because I was big into Get Smart.

Too bad it never took.
