If you could have a pre-70's classic what would it be? I have a variety of favorates but today I had to get a tire repaired and in the back of the lot behind my tire shops junk and bushes there was a rusting '51 Kaiser that I just wanted. I know it would take a ton of work, but there was just something about the contours on that car and the split windscreen. If it's still there in a month or so <Which it probably will be> I'm going to check on the cost and maybe make that a new project car.

A 1967 VW beetle deluxe, with a 2017cc turbocharged motor, custom 4 speed, and disc brakes all around. lookin at about a 10 second car. that looks like a 1.5 minute car.

If I was going domestic.. I'd also have to go with a 69 Hemi

However.. a nice 1967 Ferrari 365 Spyder California V12 would suit me.. the engine sound is UNBELIEVABLE

*Cough* 1957 Corvette *Cough* Ocean blue with Bright White Pearl Flaked Racing stripes, hardtop. And guess what... the 1957 vette is down the road from me sitting there gathering dust. Needs a little, i do mean a little, work done to it. Redo the interior, give it a paint job, and tune the engine and its good to go. But the guy won't sell it, or even fix the damn thing. I should go steal it, because he doesn't even live there, and he forgot that he had it.

well i would have to say for me, i'd have to go with a 72 Chevy Blazer 2 wheel drive. So it could match my 72 4wd. Only problem is only 3,000 2wd blazers were made in 72

Mildly surprised at how many and how quickly I got responses on this one. Some good answers, I guess this one just stuck out to me that someone other then myself knew Lamborghini made cars other then the Countach and the Diablo. Personally I always wanted a Jalpa. I was surprised that he also was the only one to mention a RR... No one else interested in Bugatti, Duesenberg, Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz, Rolls-Royce or Lamborghini? Maybe an Aston Martin?
