OK, you've got another vote -- from me. Tough choice, though. I have fond
memories of a 1965 Corvair convertible given to me by an exchange student
returning to Switzerland (he was going to abandon it at JFK airport --
that was 1971, but if I'd only hung onto it until now....).
Then there's the Chevelle Malibu and Mercury Comet, awakening thoughts of
AMT 3 in 1 model kits -- sniff, sniff (tears, BTW, NOT a reference to the
glue used to assemble the kits) -- of so long ago.
And what up with that Vignale Gamine? I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS IS
(enlighten me, someone), but it's cute! Besides, Giovanni Michelotti, the
Triumph owner's favorite stylist, had more than a passing connection to
the Vignale studios.
Above cars notwithstanding, though, the GT6 gets my vote! ;-)
