Holiday begs me to take the "black & white" - how do you say no??

 

Looks like the right year car for me to be driven to kindergarden in. Too bad my dad had a Merc.

 

awesome i'll bet she was the envy of all her little friends! also dig her name!

 

That's really neat! I can't keep my grandson out of my red and white.

Love it! My daughter was unsure if it was cool or not (8th grade)....then, when her fellow students mentioned how awesome her mom's car was, she now wants to take it everyday.

 

Cool! Way to arrive in style amid a sea of minivans and camrys. Maybe just me, but the "wow" factor from kids and non-car folks when driving to otheriwise mundane chores can be more satisfying than talking with knowledgable car guys at shows and such. Might just create another fan that will help keep more old cars on the road.

 

Couldn't agree more - personally I love the history, the quality, the pride that was part of these cars - but nothing to me is better than the looks, smiles, and thumbs-up that you get driving around town. My daughter is hooked and routinely points out "old cars" to me - most of which are mid-80's relics - but she at least knows these look older, or different, than the norm. As they say, "Take a kid to a car show"

 

Your daughter is diffidently a car gal, How cool is that.

 

yeah I love it! haven't even gotten to drive my car yet but people will be hanging out the windows when they drive by to get a better look at my car!

 

My 7th grade daughter loves it when it take her to school in my project Cutlass. Cant wait til it's nice then she will really love it. I'm amazed at the positive comments I get on my old beater.

These are my daughters in the convertible at Fireworks on the Fourth of July.
They both love it. My wife's finally starting to get over 8 years of being a widow too

 

Today she wanted the convertible...late September in New England is borderline for a 7am convertible ride, but she wants what she wants!

 

Too Cool Olds Dad.

 

very cute, how do you say no to her!?!

Yep, most of the time my girls are more than happy to take the Olds but sometimes its not cool or their hair will get ruined etc etc....

I remind them that we walked everywhere and if we didn't we took an old bicycle and if not we took the green limousine (the Chicago Transit Authority Bus or El) not a ride in a car

 

Good for both of you! She probably will remember these times for the rest of her life.

 

She has your heart in her pocket. Just wait until she asks for the keys. It will happen sooner then you think.

 

yeah...plays me like a fiddle - her baby sister too (Starfire).

means I have 9 years to finish my Holiday sedan for her to drive...and 12 to find a Starfire...

 

Nice!!
