  My dad had one of these in this particularly disgusting colour as well. And then he replaced it with the same car in green!

  I don't remember any of these except for the Nova and his roadster. These aren't his actual photos but from memory of him explaining them and seeing the old photos, these are real close.

  55 bel air - red and white
  

  

  66 chellelle - teal
  

  

  71 nova - charcoal and it didn't have the traction bars or larger tires in the back
  

  

  36 ford roadster with chevy 327 engine. painted hugger orange.
  

  

  It's funny. He had all the hot cars so now when it's my turn he's gotten all frugal on me and tries to tell me to save my money and just buy some $5k car that gets me from here to there. PPFFFFFT.
