That sounds like my Metro. The nice thing about this list is there was very little to go wrong and little to crowd the engine bay. That 1.0l looked small even in the engine bay of a Metro.

'82 Corolla here.

First muscle car, second car (the first one was a 1992 Grand Am hand-me-down POS).
1970 Ford Torino GT Convertible, 429 (0.060 over), C6, 9" (3.00 gears). The color is Arrival Blue Metallic (2003 Silverado SS color), notice the black Le Mans stripes (my own design, executed by someone who knows what the hell they're doing in a paint booth).

I was 18 when I bought it, and it looked more like this.

The Torino (still looking like crap) was followed by the one on the left (pony cars are close enough, right?), to replace the 1992 Grand Am which had become too unreliable to ferry me home from college. It was replaced by the one on the right when I graduated.

I also have the 1963 Fairlane 2-door hardtop below, purchased ~1 month after I started my job. It's a 200 cid 6 banger but it's impressively original with just over 7500 miles! I've also got a similar car (pillarless sedan) in black. However, there's no engine in that one, just a roll cage, tube frame, and ladder bars...

So uh.... you're a Chevy fan then? (I Kid, I kid!)

A Fairlane is on my short list of cars-I'd-start-renovating. Always loved the things, they're just so purdy! That's a frickin' nice Torino - you did good!

69 El Camino(14 moving violations in less than a year)
78 Formula Firebird( Ex-wife took in divorce)
74 Pontiac LeMans(bought 69 Camero)
69 Camero SS( Got married again and needed truck)
I have a 2001 Camero now along with my wife.

1997 Z28 Camaro. Had it since 97. It is under the knife right now. Im slapping in a forged 383 with nice port polished heads and matched cam. Its going to sound like a pop corn machine!
