Hello to all

I am new to this forum. My wife and I have a '62 Olds Starfire Coupe that we bought just this past spring. We also have a '57 Buick Century Riviera that we bought at the same time. When we go on outings with both of the classic cars, the Olds is what the wife drives and I drive the Buick. I get to work on and be the mechanic for both (no surprise there). Both cars are mostly original, other than the paint jobs, although they were repainted to their original color.

Lovely cars but wondering.....when you and the wife take both the cars out....do you head in different directions? Just want to see how this works. If the answer is yes I might buy the missus and old Ford or something..
