I feel like there are going to be a lot of Shelbys in this thread.

 

YUP...67 GT500 ......what a vehicle
72 AMC Javelin 304

 

67 F250 camper special. Traded for an 81 grand prix.

 

So far I don't regret selling any of mine.

67 Mustang Coupe - Did all I wanted to it, wanted something newer
2001 Mustang GT - Automatic, sold for manual
2003 Mustang GT - Started new job and needed better mpg, it was also starting to fall apart
2009 Honda Civic - Had the tahoe already and the a/c had went out
2007 Chevy Tahoe - Wanted a truck so I sold it for my current F150
2001 Honda Accord - Flipped it for $1000 profit

 

Man, those VR4’s are cool, provided you don’t have to work on them.

I don’t regret selling any of them, mostly because I kept my 66. I had considered getting rid of it after fastback prices blew up, and I had dreams for a 49-51 Ford or maybe a model A roadster. Still haven’t made those happen, but in retrospect, would have eaten my heart out if I sold the fastback.

I do kind of miss my 05 Mustang GT. Ordered it from the factory and had done some cool tasteful mods to it. Later found out it had gotten totaled. Had to sell it to afford the new baby. We did the math to figure out the conception date… turns out it was the night I got that car.

Yeah, the engine compartment on a VR4 is spaghetti. It takes 6 hours to check/change the spark plugs because you have to REMOVE THE INTAKE MANIFOLD to get to 3 of them!

 

They were just used cars back in the day, but:

1967 Fastback that had been professionally converted to. 427Side Oiler, top loader and full float 9”. I had the medium riser set up on, but also had the complete setups for low and high riser also.

1970 1/2 Z28 from the original owner. Still 100% stock LT1 motor, rock crusher and 12 bolt rear.

sometimes I cry at night…….

 

My first Mustang, a 1969 coupe special ordered from the factory in Acapulco Blue with black interior. If I only knew.......

 

Regret selling no vehicles
72 hotrod Pinto
87 Chevy station wagon
3 Buick LeSabres
82 F250
93 F150
04 Taurus

 

Sunbeam Tiger. Bought it used in ‘76, needed lots of work, and didn’t have a garage, so after a while I sold it. Regrets.

 

'70 Boss 302 - sold it when I had to move overseas.
'55 Austin Healey 100

 

59 ford retractable hardtop, 78 trans am special gold edition

 

‘71 Camaro
‘67 C10 Shorrbed

 

No regrets on any car but on bikes. Traded a 1952 Vincent Black Shadow on a 1962 BSA Gold Star Rocket. Traded the Beezer on a dirt bike.
Wish I had kept both.

 

I don't regret selling any of them because situations drove my decision. I wish I could find 66#1, a lowly gorgeous red sprint 200. But I don't regret selling #1 because it let me buy 66#2, an eye-popping 4-speed GT with tons of options like FM radio. I don't regret selling #2 because it wasn't the right car for starting a family.

Looking back, I sold them both to fund the purchase of another car. I guess I regret that I wasn't a millionaire. I only sold them because I was a hundredaire at the time.

 

Weirdly, sometimes I regret NOT selling my ‘65 back before I went to college. I drug it all over the country with me and never really got to enjoy it. I could have sold it, not dealt with the hassle, and been able to get back into the game when I was ready and get the car of my dreams - a ‘69 or ‘70 fastback.

I’ve got too much into it now to justify selling it just to upgrade (if life situations dictate it, that’s another thing), which is fine - I still love the ‘65-‘68 coupes. But I do wonder “what if” sometimes.

 

This, they are a small fortune now.

 

Man do I regret selling;

1973 Z28 full front bumper, sold to buy diapers and baby formula, midnight blue metallic with white strips
1955 Chevy two door post, souped up 327 w/ 4 speed Muncie trannie, Gloss black , sold to buy the Z28
1961 Ford Unibody Pickup w/ hot 302 power, Ford red
1978 F-100 Full size Ranger 4x4 with 351 bored out 30 0ver with c6 trannie, brown metalflake color

 

1956 F100 big window. It was my first vehicle. What were you thinking?

 

1969 XKE
1989 fox notchback

The other 15+ or so cars, good memories, but no real regrets,

 

1969 XKE

Straight 6 or V12?

 

My first car. A 1968 Gulf Stream aqua coupe with two-tone interior and not a spot of rust. I bought it after I graduated college in ‘93. I had it for a couple years, I had to move to a job in Texas and needed a better car to drive across the country in. Years later when I mentioned that I hated selling it, my parents said I could have stored it at their house…thanks, now you tell me.
I sold it to a local kid who crashed it.

 

I actually have 2 that I wish I still possessed.
2007 GT500
1972 F100 4x4

 

In 2018, sold my Factory Five Cobra replica. Lots of reasons for selling it, primarily to fund my Mustang restomod.

 

My 93 ford f-150

 

I'd like to say the 89 GT but, while I miss it probably best for me it moved on.

For it however, I saw it a few months later, rear qtr was caved in and front had damage as well. They were still driving it. I suspect it preferred the time I owned it.

 

I'd say my '66 Chevelle 396 Super Sport, automatic, while I was in college. Similar to the photo above. Lots of '67's around, but not so many '66's.

Traded it for a yellow '70 Dodge Dart Swinger. What was I thinking? jp

 

Mine was a 80k original mile, original 86 Saleen mustang. The car was amazingly clean and a blast to drive!
It came up for sale again last year for nearly 5 times what I purchased it for in 2004.
