Pick your favorite iconic car from any decade....

I always wanted an old Dodge Power Wagon. Has there ever been a cooler truck? No!

So are these basically just the engine and cab of the old army deuce & a halfs?

1955 Chevrolet Bel Air. Few cars were as 50s iconic!

1957 DeSoto Fireflite. Fin City!

1959 Cadillac Coupe De Ville. The King of the Fins!

1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. As iconic as it gets.

1967 Volkswagen Beetle. Even more iconic!

1969 Camaro SS. Insanely fast, insanely beautiful!

I'm on the lookout for one of these . . . . with a 5-speed. Rare bird it is. The mini-van murdered the good 'ole wagon. Can we blame Chrysler for that?

Curbside Classic: 1992-96 Toyota Camry – The Greatest Camry Of All Time?

I don't really know if it was iconic, but I really dug the Chevelle SS around 1970 and still do!

The guitarist in my first band had one of those, and the guitarist in my second band had one from 1968.

Beats me. I just love me some old Power Wagon-ness.

I just noticed this doesn't have a roll bar.

Lots of cool cars here but I must admit to having a soft spot for the custom vans of the 70's.

'59 Red Barchetta! From a better, vanished time.

Very iconic, being 1970 was the high water mark for factory hot rods. Between 1971 & 1972 compression ratios and horsepower ratings dropped like the stock market. The 1970 LS-6 Chevelle was one of the most powerful cars offered in it's day.

I almost bought a 72 in 88, worked on typical small block & auto trans, repainted black, had a black interior... Keystone Klassics, shackles and air shocks

I just sold a real 70 LS5 that my shop removed a bit of aftermarket stuff, rebuilt the engine, and refreshed a bit of the paint. We own a real 70 LS6 Convertible and a customer is having up build an LS6 clone restromod out of his 70 Malibu... all 3 are medium blue & white

Being an aviation and car guy, this vehicle always fascinated me. In Germany, after WW II , Messerschmitt was no longer allowed to build airplanes so they tried their hand at cars. You can definitely see it was designed by aeronautical engineers. More like getting into an airplane cockpit than getting into a car interior.
