Sweet, is the Chevelle a auto or manual? When I bought my 911 years ago I was also considering getting a 68-70 chevelle, upgrading the suspension and adding 4 wheel disk brakes so I could have classic looks, sound, power with decent more modern handling and stopping. If it's a 4 speed then send it to me. I'll make sure it gets driven from time to time. Wouldn't want the wifey's car to sit and atrophy.

You could send me one of the porsches too if you need to. And what model year are the daughters (crap, did I say that outloud? j/k) I understand, my stepdaughter is 21 and my stepson is 22. The insurance goes down, but when you add college you are right back where you started.

Yep, those old mini's rock. The new mini's are cute and probably make a really fun daily driver, but I'd really LOVE to have something like the one in the pic for the occasional fun car.
