I don't even think you can think of a Vette as "cool" anymore.

I think part of the 'cool factor' has been lost because there are more on the road now. I think the early cars still carry some of the reputation of cool by the attention they get when seen on the road.

Friend of mine had a 300 convertible. Constant headaches. Had a tire that kept deflating…after god knows how many service trips turned out to be an issue with the rim.

Had to take the front tire off to replace a headlight.

Couldn’t rotate the tires because the front and back were different sizes.

shite cost him a fortune.

Mechanic cleared the drains, checked the windshield seal, sprayed it down with water, no leak. Took it home, next time it rained, leaked again.

Suzanne Somers in “American Graffiti” forever turned those into exclusively chick mobiles.



The correct answer would include a ‘68 Mustang GT Fastback.
