1. 1967 Shelby GT 500 Sold for ($6,000 because of my crack addiction.)

2. 1912 Stanley Steam Car (Traded it for a Game Boy Color with Pokeyman Game. Sold the gameboy after I beat Pokeyman for previously mentioned crack addiction.)

3. 1992 Greyhound Bus (Ran into a McDonalds Drive through, and sold it in totaled condition to a junkyard. )

4. Saturn V Rocket (Gave to NASA in the 60's. They put it to good use.)

I wish I still had the Pokeyman and Saturn V.

'68 Cougar GTE with the "W" code 427 engine... Sold in 1978 cause I didn't have a place to keep it... Unless something has happened to it in the last few years(doubtful), it survives...

Wouldn't mind having the '69 Fairlane Cobra HT with the Drag Pack... Unfortunately I sped it as well as a 428CJ Torino GT fastback... I do still have the engine from that one...

Don't much miss my early cars, but I'd like to have #4, a '64 Galaxie Fastback..

I still own #5...

That's what happened to my '66 Galaxie - I sold it to a middle eastern pizza store owner. He painted it black (it was originally burgandy with a white roof) and then wrapped it around a lamp post. I nearly cried when I saw its wrecked carcass in his yard...

I've totalled/rolled/wrecked all the cars I've gotten rid of.  One car I didn't wreck was a '76 Gran Torino, but I bought it in unrunnable condition.  One that someone else wrecked was my uncut '66 Bronco. (I'm still miffed about that)  I have saved all the useable parts, and they fill my backyard up pretty good. I still have my first vehicle....a 1978 f150 4x4.  My dad bought it new after selling his 1971 Barracuda Gran Coupe (383 4bbl).  If there's any regrets, you'll have to ask him. :shakehead

ok im only 19 and despite having a huge number of cars for my age the one i miss the most i had nothin to do with. My dad had bought a 1985 Ford f150 ext cab longbed truck when I was 8. At first it was his baby but when i turned 10 he decided he was going to build it into a street strip truck and be my first vehicle. It had a 514 stroker and built c6 trans mission that could shear axles if u "goosed" it. once we had the rearend built strong enough to hold the power we started doing the body work. About halfway through my parents got divorced and dad let mom have the truck hoping she would keep it around for me which she did until her new husband moved in. The guy is not a car guy and had no respect for this gas guzzling tourque monster. About a year after they got married i got to see the truck be traded in for $1525 which was about what was in the transmission alone. Whats worse is the truck this thing was traded in for was a 98 dodge ram POS. Lets just say me and my stepdad never got along after that. Thats not even gettin into how pissed my dad was. Hes got over it but im afraid i never have that truck was amazing we changed the pinion angle so the truck never would spin the tires but just launch like a bat out of hell and it was wicked fast for being a behemouth.
