| Older, collectible cars | | I know a lot of people are into collecting and restoring antique and older cars/trucks. My hubby is too. Right now he is finishing up a labor of love he's been working on for over 5 years. He has been restoring in his spare time a really pretty 1973 Porsche 914, it's yellow and sooo pretty. He had an old Chevy truck he was going to restore but sold it before he could get started, and has regretted it ever since. We bought a 1993 Jaguar XJ6 a couple of years ago, that one was for me. I always wanted a Jaguar. I tell you if I could afford it, I would buy a much newer one. I have never ever had a car that handles as good as my Jaguar does. Incredible ride, beautiful in looks, and oh so dependable. I will miss it when we sell it, but knowing my hubby, he will find me another one. He's pretty good about fixing one up, we just can't see buying the new ones these days, we couldn't afford the payments anyway, and hard to work on them without having to pay a high price at the auto shop. I'd still like to buy me a volkswagon bug one day, they are so cute, and great on gas mileage too. So, what's your story? Tell me about your hobby, or if you have a car you are restoring or driving that is... | |
