My oldest automotive child is a 1970 TR-6.
Probably a little over the 100K mark.
She is beautiful, dark blue, blue interior (one day I hope to change that), and knock off wire wheels.
She has the Michelin redlines. They squee when cornering. No power steering, and sometime soon will need work on the transmission (getting into 1st is sometimes stubborn, she needs a gentle but firm hand). Of course, no A/C, no power windows, and a stiff clutch. But she runs, and sounds like nothing else in the past 30 years.
She isn't practical, but she is mine, and a hell of a lot more interesting than the piddling Regal with a 6 cyl turbo.
