Some alternative bodystyles that can be way cool....

There's a lot of cool cars that everyone overlooks when their searching for their "dream car."  Here's a few I thought of.  # 1. 1960-68 Full-size Pontiacs. While 99% of Chevy Impalas,Caprices, and Biscaynes of this era are small-block powered, and 396, 409 and 427 versions bring a King's Ransom-the Pontiacs are a steal. Every single Catalina, Bonneville and Gran Prix built has at least 389 cubes under the hood, and depending of year-some have 400, 421 or 428!! 1965 and later models with automatics will have the excellent TH400.  Any suspension or brake upgrades that fit an Impala will fit these cars. # 2. 1963-69 Full-size Fords. The '63 Galaxie hardtop is still a great looking car 50+ years later, and the later models are cool too. '60s Fords had luxurious interiors, and most have 390 cubes under the hood. Later LTDs had hidden headlights and 428 or 429 motivation. # 3. 1969-76 Pontiac Gran Prix. While Rat-Powered Monte Carlos are rare and expensive, GPs had 400 cubes standard all years and a fair number of "SJ" models had 455s. Wrist-thick front and rear sway bars made them amazing handlers for a big car. # 4. 1967-69 Thunderbird. I personally think this is one of the best-looking cars Ford ever produced. 390, 428 or 429 cubes for power, and luxurious interiors. I like the 2 dr models, but the 4-door versions with the "Suicide Doors" have a following too. # 5. 1966-69 Buick Riviera. These had the swoopy, fastback,hidden headlight styling of the revolutionary Olds Toronado, but were still rear-wheel drive. With 430 cubes under that long hood they move pretty good too. # 6. 1969-72 Plymouth Sport Fury. Peter Graves drove one of these on "Mission Impossible". With 383, 400 or 440 cubes under the hood they have great potential. # 7. 1967-69 Cadillac Eldorado. These cars styling still looks futuristic today. And with 429, 472 or 500 cubes they've got the torque. A little heavy to be a hot rod, but man what a great cruiser. # 8. In the same vein-I really like the 1972-76 Lincoln MKIV. Hidden headlight styling,luxurious interior and 460 cubes for motivation. Too heavy to be a serious hot rod, but a great, comfortable cruiser that looks cool.  Mastermind
