64s
I wouldn't feel bad, It might not be high on the list for some but I've never seen an old car that I didn't like!

Nothing in the world prettier than an Evening Orchid '65 SS with a white interior.
Of course, with the 409 rather than the more popular 396!

Hey Jester
If you're gonna junk it, give me about a days notice and
I'll be there to pick it up........
I don't understand why so many are down on the 64, especially the Biscayne.
IMO, and here we go, I think the 64 Biscayne/Belair and the 66 Biscayne/Belair look like they were born on the dragstrip...............they remind me of the 55........big square shoeboxes...........
Then why am I building a 63 Belair 409, 4 speed........simple....because it was there
......my neighbor already has a 64.
My list of favs
would be
61
66
63
64
62
55
56
59
.....that's my story and I'm stickin' to it

People either like the fins and curves of the '59, or the slab-sides and boxiness of the '64. Quite the contrast in designs.

No, the one at the convention was green and had a small block. bmac is from Great Falls, just got the 409 in and running. He has pics here in the photo album. I have seen it and it is nice.....evening orchid. I have not seen it since the 09 is in.

It could be yours..........
Im glad you like the car, makes me feel good...... A certain number of green stamps (or will trade for a new Ford GT-40) and it just might be yours....

Well Guys,looks as though Im late to this party. Boy after 6 pages its tough to respond to all of this. I started my big car mission in high school,now bear in mind I graduated in 92, with the 65-70 cars. That because thats what I could afford. Overall I have had around 25 of these cars. Ranging from few hundred dollar beaters to the last,a nine second 66 SS. I always wanted a 61,62,63, just took a while to get there. You know any of these cars could be awesome, the 64 always takes a beating, but a 409 powered 64 belair or biscayne could win me over any day. A good friend of mine has a 64 belair with a 406 that I have personally gone 10.30 in, hard to hate that. Now I have 2 62s and I would not trade them for any of the others I have owned. My current driver is a 91 caprice fitted with impss wheel and lowered. No Way does it campare to my old ones, but as metioned earlier in this post,its like driving the couch,cost me 1500 and gets 22 mpg. Any way all the 55-70 full size cars are great in there own ways. My least favorite......trailered show cars,,musclecars without muscle!
