That's my wife's bucket list car, only in Acapulco or Marina blue instead of red, she hates red.

I would like to have this one back, only mine was Gold . It was a 401 Nailhead 325 HP with a Super Turbine Drive 2 speed . Rode well, relatively quick and somewhat fuel efficient .( 16/21).

I had a 69 Ranchero with a Q-code 428 cobra jet. Had a 69 A12 at the same time, that would destroy it.
CJ is long gone. Still got the A12.
My asshole brother had two of those, one almost exactly as you described, gold with a black vinyl top, brown interior, and 401 nailhead. The other one was butternut yellow, no vinyl top, brown bucket seat interior, and a dual quad 401 (transplanted from a Riviera), and a 4 speed.
I have always had a soft spot for Ponty-knockers. No particular order...
1963s tempest, catalinas
65 gto ....
Of course a Henry J gasser would be awful to drive but way cool.
Willy Aero.
Heres my 69 mach 1 project. Not for the faint of heart. It actually starts.

Beautiful body style! Way better than the Chevelle!

i *almost* bought a 4spd GS! in fact, i went to go buy it and on the lot they had a 49 dodge wayfarer... and i bought that instead. objectively the GS was the better car and obviously the one i should've bought!
i've always thought these were dead sexy cars.

My neighbor has this 63 with a 460 and 4 speed. Emblem say 428 but he said he checked the numbers and it's a 460.
.....and that's ALL that counts!
You don't need numbers to tell those two engines apart! Nice car!
Now thats a project.
I like just about anything but the ol' boy that got off this bike gets a special nod, even it is a Honda.
Cool bike and it actually has mufflers on it. I cannot STAND a loud bike. They sound like dried up dog butt.
I have this '79 T/A. It is a nice cruiser, and handles really well. Originally a 403 Olds car, but a previous owner installed an Olds 455. Awesome torque!!
(I'm going to probably trade or sell it soon - I have an urge to get a 1947 -ish Dodge Truck. Also, have a strange fetish for a 1967 C body with the fast back roof lines.)

Nice lookin car!
Be sure to zoom in on front tire. Picture from over 3 years ago. If I see bike again I'll check if it has the same one.
I don't know what my problem is with these but I am obsessed.................... Buick Grand National, it may be because they came out when I was in High School.
And they were about the baddest ride of the day! Faster than a Corvette.
Yes Sir! I want one BAD!!

They were just out of my price range when I bought my first new car (there have only been two in 48 years of driving) otherwise I would have gone and looked at them and likely bought one. My wife had a '76 Buick Skyhawk when we got married. We sold it to buy the GTS convertible, but when the GNX drive train came out that would have been sweet in the '76 even though those cars had problems with control arms breaking. We had already broken a rear sway bar.
