What car do you look back at and wish you had kept?

My pick would be my 1970 Corvette, I bought it right out of high school and did a frame off restoration and completely rebuilt the motor in the car. It was a 454 big block, 4 speed, black leather interior, t-tops. After the rebuild the car made a little over 600hp and so much torque it was crazy lol. Talk about a fun car to drive. I ended up selling it to a close friend that begged me for it for years.

This was the first car I ever owned and one of my favorites. Its was a 1969 Ford Torino GT w/351W and it basically was a trouble free car in the 120,000 miles I put on this car and it had 160,000 miles on it when I got rid of it I only changed a water pump and an alternator and I think only one battery. I've been thinking about looking for another one this time a convertable.

up until i bought my Jeep 9 years ago, all i had was junk...a few crappy GM's, and my '90 Sundance. actually the Plymouth wasn't a bad car, i got 170,000 miles out of it before i sold it. i had more money in the four sets of tires i went through and the radio then i did in (non-maintenance) repairs.
so until i sell the SRT-6, the Wrangler, or my J-truck, i won't have that seller's remorse.

'85 Pontiac Firebird. No matter if I was sliding threw ditches and into a field (accidently ofcourse), or just driving in a snow blizzard up here in Canada. The car never left me stranded. I ended up parking and the end of my street one day (its a dead end road) and someones grandma t-boned the driver door pushed it into the barrier. the car was no match for a suburban. so I scraped it

1970 Challenger 440 six pack. My first day back from Viet Nam. I worked with dad to order and pay cash for it, it was delivered just before I got home. Dad went and picked it up and had it parked in the garage when I got home.
