that thing would fit right in today. These kids don't seem to have the same 2 doors too many mentality that we had back in the day.

But honestly...I look at anything pre60 as 'hot rod' and anything 60's and 70's as muscle cars...
But that's just my twisted mind...

Speaking of... Back around '78 there was kid in our small town that had a '66 BelAir 4 door. It had a 1970 350/300HP, Muncie 4 speed and 4.10 12 Bolt Posi. Would have been a great sleeper except he had Mr. Gasket Pro Stock mags with 60 series Pro trac tires on it and the back end jacked up so the L60-15's wouldn't rub. He ran it into the median running about 80 MPH and totalled it. I got to see the before and after as he had just passed us a mile before that and we got there just as he was climbing out of the car and the dust was still flying. Moron. graemlins/sad.gif It was a really nice old car even if it did have too many doors.

Except for me, you couldn't give me a 4 door classic, yet I love my 4 door (new) sedan, and when I was truck shopping earlier this year, I wouldn't accept anything less than a truck with 4 fullsize doors, lol Interesting I think. smile.gif
A guy around here had a nice '67 Chevy Bel Air 4-door hartop. He couldn't sell it for the longest time because it had too many doors. I wonder how things will go for Chysler when the 1st ever 4-door Charger is in the showrooms?
