a '66 GTO convertible .There were 2 originals... and 2 replica/tribute
cars... all of which still exist !

Subject: Re: [Tigers] Year of the Tiger - Tangent
Steve9s post sent me off on a tangent. I began to wonder what kind of car
he would own if he had been born a different year. I got stuck on the Year
of the Monkey, but here9s the rest of the list:
Tiger - Sunbeam Tiger
Dog - Any GM product
Dragon - Kaiser Dragon
Horse - Ford Mustang
Monkey - ?
Pig - Harley
Ox - Think Ox - electric car
Rabbit - VW Rabbit (Terlingua Shelby)
Rat - Any big block Cheby
Rooster - Ford Thunderbird or Pontiac Firechicken
Sheep - Dodge Ram
Snake - Shelby Cobra or Dodge Viper
