Do trucks count?

1940 Chevrolet half-ton bought in '72 for $35 by my brother and me. It was a field truck. Put a 6 volt battery (half of an MG 2 6V in series) and drove it home. Made lots of blue smoke. Farm Use. Drove it illegally on back roads through the mountains of SE West Virginia. Traded it in '77 for a paint job on an MGB that never was done.

I miss him. Sure would look good in the Soggy Bottom.
 
Oh, this is a painful topic for me. 65, 68, and 69 GTOs, my 64 Catalina convert. ( Totaled, but ultimatly repairable), my 76 XJ6C( sold during divorce) My R8 Gordini with competition history, and my beloved 73 MGBGT. That was a stupid move. There have been others, but this gets depressing....

The truck I wish I’d never sold was my Tan 94” F-150 the "Cowboy Cadillac" XL Regular Cab Short Bed with it’s bulletproof & torquey 4.9L Inline Six. No Frills: No A/C, basic vinyl seats & rubber floor mats. The Spartan creature comforts consisted of a Cassette AM/FM Stereo and a Saddle blanket seat cover.
 
My TR5, although I didn't like the Rostyle wheel covers.

Sure whatever no rules say you can't.

But I'm going to really give a hard time to the person who lists a Riding Lawnmower. Got'a put my foot down someplace. /bcforum/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif
 
A 56 Austin Healey 100-S and a '64 Chevy II Super Sports, burgondy.

DON'T ever want to see another FIAT.
