lol! I posted on all this few times now SS. It's all to depressing for me ya know...
I owned a Genuine Monza Green 70/71 Falcon GT Shaker for approx 12-13 yrs in was in (approx 95% original but mickey mouse cond) I let it go at a sweet price 'at the time' (31/2yrs ago) But as you know what the GT & GT-HOs fetch now (last 18 mths-2 yrs) err you can understand my disappointment...I invested the money well but i'm still kick'n myself in the ass a little for it. hmm.gif The bloke that bought it off me sold it 12 mths later for almost twice what he payed for it. The dude that brought it off him is now laughing all the way to the bank...oh well, 'such is life'...

I now own a 96/97 Hilux with all he goodies attached (for work & play) & the other half drives a '03 Grand Cherokee Laredo.

Word of advice boys....hold on to them 'classics' no matter how bad things get for ya financially eh, ya never know whats around the corner. thumbsup.gif

It was mine, but I sold it because I needed a 4 wheel drive. sad.gif
But it ran fine, after a bit of work. It actually had a 22 shell replacing one of the fuses. Sometimes I had to have someone push it a little to get it to start. wink2.gif

Did lots of body work and new paint. But it has the existing sink, icebox, cabinets and beds. The inside is not bad. But it is well worn. I did repaint it using the existing factory color. It's always fun getting visitors when we go camping. Meet lots of new people that way.

That's identical to the bus my parents had when I was growing up, except theirs was that lovely pea soup color. LOL. That was the car I learned to drive a stick shift on when I was 14. LOL. Man my folks were hippies. But even hippies grow up... they still drive german, but now it's in the form of a Mercedes sedan. LOL.

MissMelsWell
I don't have any pics of my new car I bought last month (my stupid little Audi died a sad death... blown up engine--my Audi was exactly like CRTbuds, but black instead of blue).

The car below is a 2001 convertible SVT Cobra that I used to own (lost in my divorce, still mad! LOL)... the one I have now is identical except it's the GT and it's red. The GT and Cobra are virtually identical except the Cobra has a V8 4.6 DOHC engine, the GT a V8 4.6 SOHC engine. Honestly, after owning both, there's not much of a difference between them for these production years (my cobra was an '01, my GT is an '02... no cobra was made in '02). They feel about the same HP wise. I think factory, the horsepower difference was suppose to be about 35HP.

They're totally fun to drive. vrooom vroooom... they have great sounding exhaust. LOL. Killer Bee is right though, they SUCK in bad weather. Luckily, I have the V8 (killer bee's is the V6 it looks like), and the V8's have Posi rearwheel drive where the V6 doesn't. But I'd never take this car out on snowy or icy roads around here... it would be a giant sled.
