Limited, but yes. All I need is the PCM code. :)

My favorite has to be my 1969 Mercury Marquis Brougham. I don't have a picture of mine, but it looked sort of like this (without the girl):

except mine was lime green metallic with a white vinyl top and it had black brocade upholstery.

We ordered it from the factory. It had a 429 cu in engine, C6 transmission, heavy duty suspension and cruse control! That car was a joy to drive on trips. Got pretty good gas mileage too, as I recall. About 17mpg on the highway.

The engine and transmission were rock-solid. The alternator was less so, and I seem to remember crawling under the car to replace the starter once upon a time. But it was too late, the ring gear had been damaged too, so I let the dealership replace that.

I traded it when leaded gas was going out of style for a 75th anniversary year Thunderbird. Pretty car, but no match for the Mercury.

Plymouth Roadrunner :cool_beans: with the 440

d
 

i deffinatly love the 440 roadrunner the best out of all the old cars. Rightnow me and my brother are into the whole 68 camero thing, hes got two of em we are fixin up. Hes also got a 1971 nova drag car.I think about doing m hot rod up but just cant find the cash laying around...Mine is a 1982 cutlass. Im savin up to build my motor right now, its a 502 with about 600 hp, and a built automatic overdrive. It should cruise good. Im thinkin its gonna go 10.0 in the quarter on pump gas. But thenagain i stil need to save about 15000 thousand to finish it.(could be a few years.)

I was fortunate enough to take part in the Hot Rod power tour in 2006. My buddy bought a 1950 F100 from a guy in Georgia that was painted the same color as Pabst Blue ribbon.. true story, he took a can to the paint shop and had the guy custom match the color. Well, the truck was on air ride, but need a motor.. my buddy has always been a GM guyy, and me too, so he pulls out a junkyard LS1 and slaps a turbo on it. Three weeks of thrashing, and we are driving from Tampa to Orlando to start the trip. We had his wife in her 2006 Trailblazer SS with nitrous, his 2005 Mustang GT his buddy was driving, we were in the F100, now outfitted with 22" Boyd's and laying frame. best week of my life, hands down. The cars we saw that week were amazing, the trip took us thru the Blue Ridge parkway to Virginia, ending in New Jersey at Englishtown....

As for me, i wanted my dad's 1961 Impala bubbletop.. he ordered new in 61 with 283 4 bbl/dual exhaust, and overdrive, three on the tree. Yeah, i know, but the 409 was not availalbe until later in the year. He sold it when i was in high school.. i had big plans for that car.

My dream car now would be a 1967 Chevy II or 1970 Buick GSX Stage 1..

gotta dream, right?

I still miss my 65 Chevy fleetside pickup. I bought it with a small block 350 but eventually came across a 348 (baby brother to the 409) with an Offenhauser tripple 2bbl manifold. Backed it up to a 4 speed tranny and had a really fun truck. Wasn't the fastest (or prettiest) thing on the street but it did turn a few heads when cruising down Ft. Lauderdale Strip. :sigh:

One day I may add a new one to my collection.

Gotta go with the 69 Mach 1:drool2:
