My dream car that I've always wanted to own was a '61 Impala, dark blue with a white stripe down the side.

My Parents had an Impala (beige/cream color) when I was about 3, so HAD to be a circa early 60's model.....remember the center cut-out on the top of the back seat? Just big enough to set my tiny little butt back then- no seat-belt laws! :eek:

My first car,

64 Impala Super Sport with the 2 speed powerglide automatic tranny and a 283 under the hood. Big front bucket seats, even bigger back seat.

Met its end with a tree on one snowy night.
