The other thread in this forum asking if you own a car made before the mid 80's has a photo of an immaculate Sigma and that got me thinking. Sigmas used to be extremely common and you saw them on the roads every day but these days, they are pretty rare, especially clean ones. There are lots of cars that are rare on our roads today, but only a few years ago, they were everywhere. For example:
Mini
Beetle
Datsun 180B
Pre XD Falcons
Any Valiant
Now, some of them were shitboxes and have probably rusted away (eg 120Y), but some old cars were classics and very popular, even as late as the early to mid 90's. Anybody got some other nominations? And even though this is a Commodore forum, let's leave the old Holdens out of the discussion.
