What's the OLDEST vehicle in your Garage?
Myself, for instance, I have a 1957 Ford Fairlane 500 Club Victoria Coupe 2 DR hardtop. I have owned it since 1986. The '57 Ford is one of my all-time favorite designs, dating back to when I was in junior high school in the early '70s. Someone on the next block over had a '57 Fairlane drag car, with a straight axle and an open-headered 427 SO and a four-speed. He would occasionally drive it thru the neighborhood, rattling all the windows and scaring all the dogs! So, what's old in YOUR garage? And HOW LONG have you owned this old car?

My oldest car is a 1963 Corvette I bought in 1978. It's been with me through most of my career in the Air Force, raising two sons, a five year tour in Germany, two restorations and a divorce. I spent about an hour working on it earlier tonight and it's still one of my favorite things to do.
