I'm not up on years of cars or styles or models..the first car I ever "fell in love" with was the XKE Jaguar...probably it was the early 60's though. :)
by Ice man on November 22nd, 2008
A 1958 Thunderbird. Really, it's hard to pick just one because there were so many beautiful cars during the 1950s.
by dumdum on October 23rd, 2009
Vetts were so much nicer cars in the 50s than any time since. Thinking the first was 53. The other one I always liked was a MGb - I believe 1955 - classy looking, a real pain to keep running. +5

I think a Toyota Crown (Toyopet) would be a novel car to own from that time period.

'57 FORD
by Lucky on December 7th, 2009
My two favorites are a red 1958 Lincoln Continental Convertible with red leather upholstery,
and the best 1958 four door Convertible that Buick never made.
You can see this one of a kind vehicle at http://www.altonaecho.com/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=2173078
It is for sale for $22,500 from the builder of the vehicle, Doug Watkins, who had had spent 10 years building the car himself out of a Limited four door hardtop sedan. Cosidering the vehicle is one of a kind, the price is very good. In fact, If I had the money, I would buy it in a New York minute. So grab it before it gets away. Someone will get a unique car.

by dumdum on September 12th, 2009
I believe it was a 1953 MGb which I understand were a pain to keep running but looked nice sitting still. May be wrong on the year, may have closer to a 55 or 57 - really don't know cars.

by Skruff on April 10th, 2009
Gawd, I can't choose, the 59 Lincoln with the frenched headlights, the 57 J-2 Oldsmobile, the 58 Buick Estate wagon, (the car with the most chrome ever) The 55 Packard Patrician Convertable with the red leather interior was beautiful. The Studebakers and Kiesers of the eaarly fifties were pretty, and all the cars mentioned so far, well I surely wouldn't junk them.
I guess I have to choose the 58 Merc Turnpike cruiser Convertable. It was like riding around in your livingroom.
