i was looking at a 79 AMC eagle the other day... the 4x4 straight six cyl model....i guess a 350ci gm engine will drop right in them....at $995.00 it would be quite a challenge...runs and drives well, needs some welding on the back suspension..

The Jeep with the Hemi would be nice.

Last night a guy was trying to sell me a 84 Mustang convertible with 90,000 original miles for $2000. He said everything works but could use a paint job to be real nice. If it was a V8 I would have already had it but it's a V6 so I may offer him $1,000 or so.

05 Mustang sometime in 06!

Looking at a new Mustang, but have not quite decided if maybe I should wait and see if a more powerful engine is coming first.

Looking at a Mercedes SlK55 or crossfire SRT super charged. Now the SSR is on the back burner. Oh well if not, I am happy with what I got.

...my wife hates the new Chrysler 300 and the new Magnum(she hated my '78 Magnum too)....so there went those two choices....

...HEMI Jeep is at the top of my list....but I want to keep our '02 Limited also....Inferno Red is my favorite Jeep color and I didn't want two the same.....

...Hummer H2...wife hates them too...maybe the H3 ???

...looked at an Escalade....$60K and it still has a column shift, just like my 55 Chevy !!!

(Whealey)...I actually drove a Mercedes 350 SLK a couple of weeks ago....the salesman was afraid I couldn't handle the power...I couldn't find the power he was talking about.....my wife likes them really well....nice car, but a lightly used Viper SRT for the same $$$ sounds like more fun to me...
...still looking for a few vintage cars, but that is another long post....right now I am sorta trailing a '67 Vette conv....see how that deal works out....he wants more $$ than I want to give....

...really like the new Mustang....just don't know what I would do with it though....

...plan of getting another Kat for a project when the right car comes along....

...bottom line, I guess I really just don't need anything at all :

Tangled,
Just bought the wife the SC430, Blue over Beige.
What a beautiful car.
I wish the Prowler would have had a top like her Conv- Hardtop....man is it sweet!
Happy New year

Recently sold my 57' T-Bird, 57" Vette and gave my son a 69' Camaro Convertible as a wedding gift. Have my Prowler and PT Woodie in the garage. For the first time I own some space. We drive the truck 80% of the time. Like davidn - just holding on to what I got.

Check out my H2, I had an 02 Tahoe and looked at the new ones along with the Denali & Escalade's. I have taken two trips so far, one was to Gatlinburg TN before Christmas. It rides smoother than my Tahoe, you can not tell any difference in the width driving and after you learn how to get into parking spaces that's not too bad either. Only drawback is 11.5 to 12 miles per gallon but I use 87 octane now(used 89 in the Tahoe) Gets almost as many looks as the prowler!!!

I am taking a year off from car purchases to work on an addition to the house, so nothing for me in 2005.

Love the 300. And the 300C SRT will be hitting showrooms shortly.


Sort of need a truck for practicality, but what Prowler owner is practical.


Toying with SL65 or Bentley Continental

Nothing! Absolutely Nothing! I don't need any more cars! Another set of Golf Clubs. Airbrushed flame job, Maybe on the Kat. Yellow suede seat inserts for the VCA Special Edition Viper. No room in the garages, and not building another one.
