Convertibles~Aint Nothing Like Goin Topless !!

nhplowboi · 01-28-2013, 08:13 PM

I can't remember a time I haven't owned one, at least if you count my 1979 CJ5 rag-top. My 1961 T-bird covertible is sitting out in the barn near that CJ5 but neither have been out in awhile. I gotta get back in the wind!! Um......in a few months.

I used to have a black Nissan 300ZX with t-tops. I loved that car; I miss that car.

I am actually shopping (meaning that I have some people looking) for a little "run around" car. I would like a convertible but my main reason for having the car is to drive from Birmingham to Florida so my primary thought is gas mileage. lol

Although if I could find a car like I used to have, I would get it in a heartbeat

I wouldn't have a rag top here in Las Vegas. It would end up being a tedious exercise in repeated replacement of an expensive auto accessory. If I ever did get one, however, this would be my choice:

Theo in your case it would need to be garage kept and used to cruise the strip at night

They're nice, but I have never had the desire to own one. I know a few people that have and they have always had some sort of issue. But, I believe in never saying never.

My first car was a 1989 Chrysler LeBaron convertible. She was white. I loved her.

Before I left California, I owned (and looooved !!) a 1967 Datsun Roadster 1600. I actually still dream of that car...driving on PCH with the music blaring, my black lab sitting next to me....but facing backwards and her ears "flying" with the backdraft. San Gregorio, here I come....

Now I'm jonesing for a Porsche Spyder. Either black with red cockpit and top, or perhaps a Nordic ice blue with a darker blood red cockpit and top? Perhaps as a reward for some smart investing...it's going to be the "date car" considering I'll probably be driving something big and utilitarian for work lol--

Great thread, thank you!
