What cars did you pass on buying in the 60s/70s because they cost too much

I wasn't alive in the 70s but when I was 20 in 2006, I could have bought a 70 superbee. It was faded orange, bumblebee stripe. Tattered black vynil top, white bucket seats with no console and just a pistol grip protruding out of he floor. Interior was very decent and complete. Ran great but was a non numbers matching 383, car also came with a cast crank 440.

All that superbee greatness had a price tag of 2500. Dollars. I didn't have that kind of money in those days.

So I moved on and bought a 74 duster that I could barely afford at 800 dollars.
