Wow, very unique, at least where I'm from. Do you live in England?

Ha! Adam, don't be ashamed of the Ford; she looks great. When it comes to cars, Chryslers are my heartbeat, but I enjoy many marquees when I go to shows and conventions and such. Ford struck a chord with the Thunderbird, and even better with the Mustang. What a hit, continuously produced since about 1964. I wish Chargers and Challengers could boast like that. Take care, Adam. Say, if you have a big event in Columbus, let me know. I'm only 3-1/2 hours away.ImperialAtom wrote: ↑Wed Jan 22, 2020 12:50 pm Have a 60 Thunderbird tucked in the garage. Don't hate me for having a Ford. If it earns me any respect back, I did sell a 66 Lincoln Continental . . .

Re: What Other Antique Cars Do You Own?
Will let you know - we do have some good shows here, so as I see them come up, I'll let you know. Please do the same from your area, it's actually a nice drive once you get out of Columbus.OldChargerGuy wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 2:16 pm Say, if you have a big event in Columbus, let me know.

That's probably a good idea for a new forum section - a cruise-in / car show section for people to post about their local or even national events. Will see if I can find a calendar addon to help track it on the forum.

Re: What Other Antique Cars Do You Own?
Amazing collection! One day I'm going to grow mine as well. Currently out of space and money, so until I can move to a more spacious property, or find a good deal on some garage storage in Columbus here, I will not be growing my collection any further.1957_Imperial wrote: ↑Fri Jan 31, 2020 4:10 am I have had many cars over the years mainly 1930s to 1970 s.

You have a good eye though! Very cool collection!

Re: What Other Antique Cars Do You Own?
Here's a few others I've previously owned but no longer own. My first entry into the classic car world was a 68 Cadillac convertible. The engine in the caddy was a beast. It had so much power, it would squeal the tires from a stop - but I didn't like the color at all.
Then got a 66 Lincoln Continental convertible with the suicide doors. That Lincoln was the smoothest ride ever - never been in another car with a ride that nice, but it would almost throw you out going around corners.
Sadly, those two cars are both gone now. Sold off to make room for the Imperials. I've also had my eye out for a 59 Lincoln Continental convertible, but these are still priced way too high currently, so I'll have to continue to wait... besides, I don't have any more room anyway and I'm not selling my Imperials.
