I still think sometimes about getting a 68-69 Camaro convertible with a V8 and a manual JUST for cruising but that’s about as far as it goes. I would never spend the money that most of these are asking knowing I had three of them in HS and I remember the crappy driving dynamics.

I used to joke that my (non restored) 2002 could run rings around my (fully restored) Mustang.
The steering on the Mustang (post restoration) is miserable. Brakes are ok. Suspension - fair....
Back when I drove that car daily... I must just not have known better. LOL
