Ever have a car take your breath away?

I was at the local truck stop yesterday getting gas....for my truck. On the back of a transporter was a bone stock 60 pontiac ventura. I have never given those much thought before but i couldn't take my eyes off of it. I stood there for thirty minutes in the cold just staring and admiring.

Have you ever had a car or truck come out of left field and grab you like that?

It's like you could reach into it.

 

The coolest thing is that that paint is the original paint from the 60"s. The whole car is unrestored. She tours with the S&S Race Team through the summer. It sounds very nasty and i love it.

1961 Pontiac Ventura...

 

For me it was the 1964 Imperial...I was a kid visiting a showroom and it must have made a lasting impression on me as in later years I owned 3 Imperials (1963, 1972, 1975 - all LeBaron's) and still consider them the ultimate production luxury car!

Oh, there were other cars but the Imperial was the first.
