What's the oldest car you've ever driven? There was one time when just for kicks I drove a friend's dad's 1968 Rambler. LOL I looked under the hood and there was so much space for working not like today's cars.

I have been lucky to know some awesome friends in my lifetime that let me get behind the wheel (though maybe not as much as I would have liked).

An old Falcon (no idea what year, I am forgetful)
3 old camaros

I think those are the oldest though, all cam's were late 60's early 70's.

I have driven a bunch of 10 year olds but that's about as old as it gets. I have never had the extra income to have a "play and restore" baby. I'd love to have a '68 Impala to restore and play with but they are too out of my price range these days.

Couldn't resist this thread..:grin:... Oh, no!! I get no smilies?? Figured I might as well clutter up another forum.. :laugh: (imagine smilie) and registered to comment on this thread.... beware, I may show up in other threads.

Oldest car driven was a 1955 Chevy 2door. I believe it was a 150 model and not original. The engine was a 348ci tripower and a simple 3 speed with Hurst shifter. Owned by a friend.

Next up.... 1956 Chevy BelAir 2door... not original (agian).. 327ci 365hp dual quads... 3 speed/Hurst shifter. Owned by another friend.

My car... 1957 Chevy 210 4door wagon... super sleeper and party wagon. 283ci 220hp.... converted from Powerglide to 3speed and on to 4speed... Hurst shifter. Some mods made and a Holley 715cfm dual inlet was well accepted by the small powerplant.... yes, the Holley was "pinned" and mileage never exceded 9mpg.

Questions??

Yes SABL, I have a question. What other old cars have you driven besides Chevy's? :)

I only rode some old cars that were on display on car shows. I have never really driven one but I like to own a Ford Model T.

Before I had my license my uncle allowed me to drive his restoration project. I can't remember what it was as it was about twenty years ago but it was a 1940s British sports car.

I ever drove 1967 Mustang. It's my friend's restoration project. I was very lucky he let me try the car. It was detailed very nicely. The old car is even much shinier than my car.

It was a late 60's VW Beetle. Not sure what year though, want to say around 67 or 68.
