Art & Inspiration Lets play "WHAT IF".... (Hot Rod & Custom style)

Okay,.... I'll admit its kind of a stupid game, But we've all thought of it in our minds before...

WHAT IF you win the Lotto for like a zillion dollars, The wife immediately snatches it and puts the clamps down on it... However she..(and your brand new accountant) agrees you can buy whatever three (3) Hot Rods or Customs you want. Something of your own creation, or a historic car or maybe a famous car. There can only be three. What would they be ?

*RULES*
*You are married, and these are the rules.
*You can't divorce her, dispatch her or have her committed. (to take half, or all of the loot)
*There can only be Three (3) new acquisitions However you keep the cars you currently have.

NOTE TO MODERATORS :
Yup !.... This is kind of a stupid thread, an exercise in fantasy and futility. However it might provide a fun distraction from all the stupid stuff going on in the world today... (If this is beyond the pail of normal stupidity, please feel free to remove it, destroy it etc. )

I'll go first...
1. The Doane Spencer Roadster
2. The Tom McMullen Roadster
3. Pete Chapouris's Cal Kid

 

Sorry, divorced, guess I'm out.

 

1-1957 Chrysler 300C 2dr hardtop
2-1953 Hudson Hornet 2dr sedan twin H power
3-1969 Yenko Nova 427 4speed 4:11

 

Me too.

 

Divorced, do whatever the hell i want.

 

I've got bad news for you.
From how you have described the scenario, I think your wife is sleeping with your "brand new accountant".
Funny how he has shown up immediately after you won "like a zillion dollars".......

 

She gets half right off the bat, thus cutting down your budget by 50%.

 

Nope,.... He Gay

 

To make the collection complete

Because I begged Dad not to junk Mom’s car just because it threw a rod.

Just because the Peter meter tells me so.

 

You made a big mistake .... you married a bad woman, and you are weak, and didnt divorce her in time, and you are screwed

.

Me too..... Yeah ! Life is Good

.

 

1. Ford GT 40
2. 1956 Continental
3. 1940ized '39 Ford Convertible

Dave

 

'49 Cad 62 series coupe
'50 Bel Air
'56 Chrysler 300

All black ...

 

At a Zillion Dollars
being married would not be an issue. She’d buy acreage and build 2 pole barns. Fill one up with cars and live in above loft and the other would be the shop.

So I ask, why rules?

 

Nope,.... I actually married the best... and am 40 years happy because of it... And !.. I'll never win the zillion dollars cause,.... I don't play the lottery....

NOW,... What three would you buy ? (if they were actually for sale or not)

 

Boothill express
Dragula
ford gt40

 

Wait .... I need a do over !!

'50 Olds 88 DHC 3 speed

'56 Merc Phaeton

'57 Dodge Coronet hdtp w/ D500 motor

 

40 Ford convert / baby Hemi
MG TC / small block Chevy
34 Willys panel, camper conversion

 

OK, I am not married, but why the hell would you tell the wife if you won the lottery?

 

I think I’d make a strong argument for more than three.

 

Well,.... it has to do with filing income tax at the end of the year....

 

1966 Batmobile
Monkeemobile
Munster Coach
All 3 of my first loves as a kid!
But I too am divorced, so I guess I don’t qualify.

 

For me it’d have to be the following , the Stone, Woods and Cook 41 Willys, the Graffiti Coupe, and last but certainly not least the Dave Stuckey 40 Ford.

 

Uhhhhhhhhh.....so many cars so little time !( But lotsa money !? Zackly how many zero's in a gazillion)
Anyhow......Ford GT-40 (the one with the 427...Dan Gurney bubble (that one!)
70 Dodge HEMI Challenger
Dyno Don Nicholson's SOHC Maverick (the one with a Lenco(yeah...dat one!)
6sally6

 

Just One And Ponder The Rest...

 

62 Catalina super duty 421 4-speed with Swiss cheese frame. Maybe aluminum front end, don't know though as I'd actually drive it.

65 Pontiac Lemans wagon, blood red, factory rallies, 421/428 4-speed, gto front end and interior, tinted windows with A/C as this would be my daily driver...

Not sure on number 3

....

 

Oh, don't fall for that old chestnut. If she's capable of sleeping with him, she will be telling you lies to cover it up.....
at least until the whole like zillion dollars is siphoned out of your control. Open your eyes!!!

 

Can't play the game. My wife would never do that, and if she would, I wouldn't have married her.

 

If Congress would pass the Fairtax bill then you wouldn't pay any tax on income. Check it out.
