for me, probably my first car... believe it or not... a 1972 Honda N-600. WAY Before the Civic came out. It was a 598cc, two cylinder air cooled engine. 10" wheels. (YES - 10"!!!). Great kid car, but in retrospect, probably a death trap. lol
The local Honda dealer recently had one of these (maybe a '73) in the show room as a conversation piece. It really did look like a car - only smaller.
It was "cute". I'm guessing 4 strong guys could pick it up and move it.
How long does she have to stand there with the 'hose'?DW putting energy in her new electric car, she loooooves it.
Got painted this week. Merry Xmas to me!!!
Looks terrific! While its not common to see many of those in the US anymore, I suppose this will be an extreme exotic in Moscow?
It is true-there are hardly any here. But I'm in Idaho!
Only thing mre beautiful than the body were the engine innards. Main bearings that likely could have withstood the torque of a 4 cyl diesel.

1962 Ford Galaxy 500. White with red leather seats
Yep, been driving it a month. It has basically become our only car. We still have a second car, but I find it too painful to drive

Just make sure to plan it out, they don't have stock just sitting around, they build it when you order it, so it can take some months to get it. Right now with the reservation backlog 6-9 months. By 2014 that should be down to 1 or 2 months.
My favorite was my Citroen DS 21 Pallas. I see old French movies, and I still think it is one of the most beautiful cars ever made.

We owned a 1985 Caprice Classic Station Wagon. We bought it used in 1988. We used it to pull our Coleman camping trailer on some very memorable trips. The running gear was like a full-size Chevy pickup. In 1992 we were a little too close to a passing tornado. Much of the paint was seriously damaged by the flying debris in the tornado. We had the car totally repainted with our insurance and it looked better than new. We donated the wagon to Kidney Kars in 2004 when it had 240K miles.1985 Chevy Caprice Classic. V8 engine. Beautiful when new. Good in snow, surprisingly. No expensive problems, just routine stuff like water pumps, alternators, fuel pump, etc, all very cheap to fix. Had 424,000 miles on it when I caved in and took advantage of the cash for clunkers deal. Eyes welled up on the way to pick up my new 4 cylinder gas miser.

We also had a 1989 Caprice Classic Sedan. The body style was the same as the 1985 model. Unfortunately, it was stolen off the street while I was working for my MegaCorp in beautiful downtown MyTown. I used the car in my job at MegaCorp and I was reimbursed mileage. We never heard from it again. At the time it had 160K miles. That was in 1998. When my insurance paid off I also bought a new 4 cylinder gas miser.
