What was or still is your favorite car of all time, The car you could not find nor afford. Your

dream car as a kid. The car to this day you still wish you could find or afford. For me it is many cars from my youth.
#1-XKE v12 convertible would be my dream.

[Hoppy]

1. Kid in my class had one. Lincoln Zepher convertable. I believe it was approx. 1939 model year.

4. WOW!!!

That's gorgeous.

3. Shelby Cobra Mark III with a 427.

I'd even take a good kit car.

5. I wouldn't say it's my "favorite," but for being made of Unobtainium, it has to be a

Tucker.



I've seen two.

In the category of "it's still possible to get one, but watch out for rust," it's a BMW CS coupé.



The whole Ferrari/Lamborghini thing doesn't thrill me at all. For an exotic, I'd go with a Citroën Maserati.

8. Is that an XK-120? n/t

[Auggie]

9. XK 140

The 140 had better steering, suspension and more horsepower.

10. Very nice!

Good lines!

7. I would love an XKE V12

I also love the '65 Shelby/AC 427 Cobra


In the realm of the possible, I had this car and would love to get a restored model

A Chevy 1966 Caprice wagon with 396 CID V8, 4 speed Muncie trans, dual exhaust and Rochester quadrajet.
At 9 MPG driving around town it wouldn't be light on the wallet but I got close to 18 on the highway.
(That could drop to 6 if there was good music on the radio.)

13. 66 Lincoln

Have always wanted the 1966 Lincoln 2 door continental convertible, in the crimson red with black interior, with black convertible top... the 66 is a special year for Lincoln with many refinements made and 66 had very specific emblems and moldings... the true luxury sports coupe... that's been my number one for years.... my number two is a 1969 Mercury Marauder X100 hardtop with the tunnel back.... who cares what color....

14. 1970 Chevrolette Covette

1970 because of my birth year and the CURVES AND CHROME!

We lived in a condo complex when I was a kid. Two Corvettes in the place and they let me wash their cars for $1 every week. Imagine... how many times I followed those curves!! Lol!
I've owned a 1974. The '70 is still on the bucket list.

[EX500rider]

18. The '70 was pretty...

....but I'd have to have the '63

1970:


1963:

15. I almost bib on my second best car a few minutes ago. BMW 850-CI. The seller had to many bad feed

backs to do it. 6 years I've been looking for one at the right price and condition. this is not the car just one of the same style, not an alpina

[natheo]

16. My fave

Would love to have a Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder.

17. 1970 AAR Cuda in Plum Crazy purple.

340 six-pack Hurst pistol grip shifter

(my 1st car was a 1970 Barracuda Gran Coupe 383 but always lusted after the AAR version aka"All American Racer" )

[EX500rider]

20. Tried to talk my brother into buying that exact model for $3500 in the early '80's..

....he really wishes he had now!!! Rare model Barracuda prices are insane now.
