I’ve never owned a car.

Favorite would be a 1972 K5 Blazer. I paid $3000 for it and put another $20k into it, from top to bottom. Painted it complete, frame off, motor, trans, diff, transfer case, suspension, interior, sound, wheels, tires, second motor...

It had a removable hard top and, because of off roading and subsequent body twist, I could never keep the top weathertight. I finally and regrettably, sold it because the left front corner had a leak that would drip on my left leg. I sold it for $6000 the day I put a “for sale” sign in the window.

At the time, I couldn’t afford to buy a second vehicle, but I’d pay twice to have it back.
