Mine was a 66 Chrysler Newport.

Bought it in the early 80s. Refrigerator White , 383 Big Block , push button transmission , a trunk you could comfortably fit 4 bodies in , ( not that I did ) and rode like a dream.

Paid 400 bucks for it in the early 80s. Fun cruiser . Fast for a land yacht too

Runner up was a 72 Plymouth Duster , had a 318 with 360 heads 727 transmission , headers , dual exhaust. Was a quick fun car you could fish tail like crazy.

1964 Dodge Dart four door. 270 with a push button automatic transmission. Family car when I was a kid. It was ancient when we got it. Could see the road through the holes in the unupholstered floorboard. Horn didn’t work and was swapped for an aftermarket button under the dash, fuel gauge broken, but could haul ass like nobody’s business.

Mom had a '75 Dart & ran it up to the 300 000 mile mark. I think the only non-routine maintenance it ever needed was replacing a starter. Also, it wasn't super-safe to try to keep small things in the trunk, due to the rust port-holes on either side of it.

Chrysler came to the odd decision not to rust-proof its cars. Who knows what they were thinking? It would have killed them except for Lee Iacocca, who saved the company with the K-car.

Lol , I rigged plenty of under dash push buttons for the horn on the Darts , FM converters for the radio too.
