OMG! I thought I was going to see an old sewing machine. Sorry ladies who love those old girls but this is SO much better than an old Singer. I'm floored!!

She's gorgeous!! And born the same year as me :)

What comes to mind is "Fireball"

Joanie2 04-26-2011 09:09 PM

That is one cool looking car --- beats the new cars by a mile in looks! When you are cruisin down the road in all her glory you are going to be getting those looks ---you know the kind where their necks are straining to see it for as long as they can. Nice........

Gladys 04-26-2011 09:10 PM

It is beautiful.

Everyone makes fun of me because I want a Corvair.

My first cars was a 64 Mustang. What a fool I was to trade it in!

grammyp 04-26-2011 09:15 PM

My first car was a 1964 push button Plymouth Valiant. Oh, I wish I still had her. Her name was Ruth.

Qbee 04-26-2011 09:17 PM

She's a beauty....how about "Tangerine Dream" :D

crafty_linda_b 04-26-2011 10:27 PM

I am sure you have heard of Prince Valient..since you called this car a 'HER' why not call 'HER' "Princess" Valient?
Enjoy your new ride...crafty_linda_b

Rose L 04-26-2011 10:29 PM

Does it have the push button shift?

Love these, my best friend in high school had one and abused it terribly by reving up the engine in neutral and slamming it into drive to burn off her tires! It was a blast!!

Congrats on your new Baby!!

craftybear 04-26-2011 10:30 PM

earthwalker 04-27-2011 01:21 AM

Almost as cool as the blue 65 XP Ford Falcon I used to own (two door, split bench seats...two tone upholstery and whitewall tires)....Seriously Robin, she is one fantastic car...how's about "Crazy Quiltin Robin's Red,Red Robin".....now I have that song in my head! :thumbup:

Painiacs 04-27-2011 01:36 AM

She is beautiful. I love old Mopars. My husband and I have 2 - 1967 Plymouth GTX's. We love taking them to car shows every summer. Have fun with her at the car show. You have a beauty.

carolknows 04-27-2011 06:12 AM

WOW! What a beauty. When hubby and I first met, we bought a convertible, white corvair. Her name was "Spiffy" because the guy we bought it from kept saying, "She's a real spiffy little girl". She was a 1962. Boy, we wish we still had her!

carolknows 04-27-2011 06:14 AM

Ooops! In my bragging about Spiffy, I forgot to tell you how beautiful your Valient is.

nativetexan 04-27-2011 06:14 AM

I'd call her Cherry!
