What's the rarest car you have ever owned??

I bought a 1925 Jewett 2dr sedan when I was a kid (17) and about 6 months later a friend of my uncles worked at the Harrahs musseum in reno sent a truck up and bought it for 1500 bucks,I thought I was in heaven I only paid 250 for it.......wonder what that thing is worth or where it ended up.............. photo stolen from some file

 

way to quote a pedophile gay dude.

anyways, sorry i'm new. sorry your feelings are hurt. damn. read my profile thats what i got. you can't insult me if thats what i have. plus if your post is the last post on the thread naturally the next guys post would come after yours. so you can't assume that my post was directed at you.

1968 Chevy Biscayne. Factory 427/425, 4 speed, 4.10 gears. I was 2nd owner, in the AIr Force in Omaha in 1971. Was my daily driver. Lots of fun for a kid that looked like he was 16 and driving dad's fleet car.

Pat

 

Mr. Bomba, you got some cool shit.

 

Thanks! Heres a couple more of my Toys I still have

This is a 1966 Impala built back in the days an old show car.






This one I Built back in 1990 and won lots of shows with it now its just resting in my shop soon to return to the streets its a 1950 chevrolet.

 

Far as rare goes, I owned a '69 Dodge Dart GTS 440 (yeah, it's not pre-'64, so?) that was one of 635 440 Darts that Dodge built that year. Disc brakes were not an option on these, yet mine came with front discs, and I verified this with the original owner in Salt Lake City...so it is the only known, verified 440 Dart with discs.

In the mid '70s, when gas was a whopping 64 cents a gallon, I owned a '66 Bonneville convertible with a 389, air, AND Tri-Power! Yes, I know the air/Tri-Power combo was not available on the GTO's and such, but it was on the Bonnies. Mine was one of only 13 so equipped. Traded a '68 Chevy 327 fastback straight up for it in 1976.

 

Currently own this 1965 Starfire convertible:

A little over 2,200 Starfire convertibles were made in '65 I am told mine is 1 of 8 with the factory M20 4spd option.

 

'67 Olds 442 Convertible. One of 1807.

 

Another cool and rare car I had was an export six-passenger '67 Belvedere I wagon. It was one of three sent to a hearse conversion company in Brussels, Belgium new. Mine is one of two bought new by brothers who were undertakers in Antwerp. The third went to a funeral home in Sweden. It was a 225, 3-on-the-tree, heater, clock, HD suspension, 3.55 8-3/4" SureGrip rear, 11" HD brakes all around, HEMI torsion bars and rear springs, front sway bar, and carpeting. It also had a 200 km/h metric speedo in it. This was also a radio-delete car. It was black with two-tone blue interior. I bought the car in Belgium, and drove it around in Germany until I shipped it back to the US through Houston in 1992. Drove it back to OKC from there. I then converted the car to a 360 and automatic, with power steering and power disc brakes. I traded it in 1997 on a paint job on my '67 GMC Suburban.

One of three is pretty rare.

 

I've owned several Buick Gran Sports, a couple of 70's, but the rarest was a 1971 GS Stage 1 that was loaded with options. (can't find any pics).
I still have a soft spot for those old GS's.

spic ole':

I have no comment on Weasel quoting Oscar Wilde.

... no worries, my feeling weren't hurt .. and I wasn't trying to insult you ... there's absolutely nothing wrong with a '64 Galaxie 500 XL ... btw, I noticed that there is a "H.A.M.B Ford Galaxie Owners" social group ... you might to check it out HERE

Agreed ... that's why I asked if it was directed at me (Hemi32) {vice a general statement about this thread}

... again, welcome to the H.A.M.B.

 

yeah i found a couple of galaxie threads too. good times. all right and thanks.

 

I had 2 Big Block Camaros. A L78 (my brother got that one), and a BB 1968 that had a funny looking fiberglass hood that looked like a Corvette 427 scoop, but was minus the spear. I never saw another hood like it, bolted to the hinges and latched like a stock one. Well I did just see one, it was on the Little Hoss 302 Race Camaro from LaHarpe Illinois. May be the car was rare, or at least the hood may have been. We parted it out..............Some guy in Norwalk Ohio is racing it at the drag strip there.
Car had a 4 speed muncie, 12 bolt 3.73; Power Steering and Power Dics Brakes, no other options, just a plain ol SS. Am Radio.

Doug

 

Nice Front License Plate.........................On the starfire Convertible.........

 

Be nice Doug.

I thought my 4spd Starfire was rare, at the Oldsmobile National meet this past weekend in Dearborn sat a 1964 F85 4dr sedan with the B09 option (442). The car was real nice it had a bench seat with a curved 4spd shifter handle. Radio delete as well

How cool would it be to have a 4dr sedan 442, talk about the factory sleeper.

 

65 GT 350 Mustang. Lots of fun. I would have to hock my house to replace it now.Oh well, that's life.

 

not really rare, but i've never seen another except on the interweb.
i had a '74 opel wagon. i could be off on the year. it was about 23 years ago.
i sometimes see opel GTs and mantas, but not wagons.
that wagon took a lickin' and kept on tickin'
i wish i had pix, and i wish i hadnt given it away.

 

1963 Split window Vett. Second piece of shit only to a 1977 Dodge van I owned.

57 Chevy BelAir with Fuel injection--bought it back 2 years ago

 

Well I have a 1930 Model A business coupe now but my grandpa had (2) 1961 Checker Station wagons. 1 nice runner the other a solid parts car and I have never seen another one. He sold em back in 2003 without telling any of the immediate family for $1500 for both. He is 89 and lived during the depression so his mantra was he didn't need them anymore he got his use outta them (his driver's license finally got pulled that year for doing 55 on an Arizona freeway). man was I pissed being only 17 and I woulda rolled that old Checker to high school no matter what smart-ass remarks were made. You should hear him talk about the good ol' days.

I have a 29 buick hearse and My Father just bought a 28 Packard Towncar

 

I guess this is rare, at least in the States. It's a '48 Morris Van that I bought out of a Canadian wrecking yard in '65 and built into a hot rod. New 271HP 289 Ford/C4/narrowed olds. Lots of fun!

 

1952 356 Porsche pre A.

Still have it

 

June 9th 1968 I bought one of the first 500 ,68 1/2 428 Cobra Jet fastback Mustangs.

 

I had in 1976 a real 1967 Z-28 camero, sold in the divorce for 4500$ that was 1980 dollars,
