I'm a Ford guy, but I love the mid 60's Mopars ,Polara/Belvederes, etc...
Or I would like another Nova, as I had a '69 and a '71 as my first cars.

69 1/2 superbee with the flat black lift off hood. I believe it is an "M" code car.

i'm not really a bran specific muscle car guy, but if i had to pick one.... i'd say i'd be a Chevy guy.

so if i had to pic 1 non Chevy it would be Mid 60's Mustang Fastback, or a 1970 Plymouth Superbird (insert import joke here)

I would say it would have to be a Black Callenger or Cuda, either one with a piston grip shifter!! Or maybe a '69 Charger? But, that will never happen as I love old GM muscle and don't have the cash for a car like that!!:D

The list is WAY too long...but a sampling:

Since I wouldn't want to rehash the typical 69 camaro, nova, etc I go for some off models

Chevy: I'd love an early 60's impala SS...a 327 small block would be fun, but I'd really enjoy a 409 or even a 348 powered example.

Ford: I'd probably go for a galaxie...Love the basic shape of the 65's most. Probably would want to go with a 460/429 based engine in it though. Not big into many of the older ford engines...

But if I was actually to buy one, I'd probably get a mid 70's pontiac trans am/firebird. I love the 2nd gen looks, easy to get parts for, and I enjoy pontiac power.

I am a ford guy, but I have a soft spot for early 70's gm muscle....My fave it a 1970 Chevy El Camino SS with the 454 and the m22.

Yep, M code. Found a green one up by my cabin, green, lift off hood, still has all the original parts on it, six pack setup, dana 60 and A-833 4 speed. Originally came from grand spaulding dodge. Found it in a dudes barn. talked to the guy and it has been his since he was 17, in 1971. Soooo tempted to remove fender tag

I guess since I own a mustang I would considered a Ford guy even though I have no loyalty to them.
I'm an old Chevy guy and think they have way better looking old cars than Ford.
Here's my list, 70-73 Camaro, 62-72 ChevyII/Nova, 64-65/66-67 Chevelle,
65 IMP, also 65 Buick GS.
Not really sold on any of the old Ford stuff, maybe once in a long while I see something that I really like but not to often.

I'm a Chevy guy, but a '57 Ford or an AMC AMX would kick some serious garage ace.

If I had a choice the 65 GTO always did something for me, Like the big box look. But I'm sure their would be allot of others.

Decent topic
Favorite brand: Buick
Second: Ford
Third: Pontiac...

So...that would mean I'd get a Plymouth and it would have to be a 69' Road Runner!

i meant the 70 1/2. I love those cars sooo much. I dunno. Something about the look of that front end w/ the RS split bumper, cowl hood, red with black stripes. I'd take it before a '69.

I had a 67 GTO in High School that I killed within about 6 mo's. Getting another one of those would be my first choice.

The next would be a 64 Impalla or 64 Galaxie

I kinda like the old (long) land cruisers...
