Re: What was your daily driver in the mid 1960's
In 1966 I was only 7-years-old and my means of transportation was a Schwinn bicycle. A couple of years later, I was lucky enough to get a Schwinn "Apple Crate" for my birthday. Banana seat, sissy bar, shocks on front and back and a 5-speed shifter. Cool looking bike, but it was so darn heavy, you could hardly get any kind of wheelie out of it!

Re: What was your daily driver in the mid 1960's
In late 65 I traded in a 57 Ford 292 automatic on a 66 Mustang 289 stick. In late 67 I traded in the 66 for a 67 Mustang candy apple red fastback with a hi-po 289 stick. It was a special build that Ford did using micheline radials and Koni shocks with a heavy duty suspension. It was a great driving machine especially on those twisty mountain roads in Colorado.
If I could have just one of my former loves back it would be the 67. |
Re: What was your daily driver in the mid 1960's
I was the only girl in High School with a '64 GTO convertible. Knew then I was a born "motorhead". It was strange cause my Dad was a farmer and a car was just transportation to him. As soon as I graduated and started to work I traded for a new '71 Trans Am. Those were the days!

Re: What was your daily driver in the mid 1960's
First car was 1963 4-door Tempest w/slant 4 and 3 in the floor. The independent rear axle kept coming out so my grandfather had it hauled off. I replaced it with a 4-door 57 Chevy 235 with 3 on the tree for $200. It just occured to me that these cars were not as old for there time as my daily driver (1994 Chevy Silverado) is compared to now. LOL
