Dream Car Thread...

Remember When MTV gave way "Weird Al's" car? Oh yeah....

 

As far as streetrod/hotrod goes it is and will always be a 28-29 Ford tudor But as far as my ultimate dream car... 62 Bubble top Bel Aire 409 2 4s 4 speed Black with red interior...

in this fine vehicle...

 

Carmen Garcia...

But this is gonna end badly...

 

I would give both of my nuts for this car.

 

JB's Merc or 35/36 ford 3W taildragger.

 

The dream is almost there...

 

'56 Ford Crown Vic, painted Hondarus Maroon, 'Cruiser skirts, nosed and decked, tube grille, baby moons with skinny whites, black button tufted interior, powered by a 312 with a Hurst shifter on the 3 speed. I could have bought this exact car in early '67, but nobody would loan me the BIG 300 buck buy in....

This Cole Foster 1955 Pontiac Starchief creation. I came within hours of buying this car and at the last minute decided not to. Kick myself everytime. I know it is still around San Diego/Escondito area...maybe one day

 

As long as we're fantasizing, why stick with one car? Here's my dream baker's dozen:

1. 30s era T-speedster: lowered T roadster on Buffalo wires & Riley OHV converted banger
2. Late 40s lakes rod: Flatty powered 32 Hiboy roadster w/ Duval windshield
3. Mid 50s Russeta TA coupe: fenderless '34 3 window with mailslot chop and early Hemi
4. Early 60s show rod: Flaked-out, chromed-out Fendered 30/31 Coupe w/ early Cad motor
5. Westergard taildragger -- '36 roadster with carson top & LaSalle grille
6. Trad Sled -- flatty powered 51 Merc Coupe
7. Clock Cruiser -- slammed, flaked 61 Cad with white pleat & roll & buick wires
8. Gas Warrior -- nose-up 41 Willys coupe w/ blown 371 Olds and B&M hydrostick
9. Saturday Nite Strip Doorslammer -- Caged 68 Camaro w/ 500+ cube BBC
10. 70s Mullet monster -- jacked up 440 Cuda with Cragar SSs on M/T 50s
11. Road course winder -- GS-style gutted 65 Vette with Weber-ed out SBC
12. Grocery getter/kid hauler: Flaked 57 Nomad with seaweed flames and Astro Supremes
13. Daily driver -- full-pimp Escalade

 

Here are only a few. The list would be to long.

 

Somthing Similar to this: Photochop of Ken Rollins's '34 LimeGreen P/U:

I'm working on my own version of it

 

One of mine is FlamedABone's rod. I just wet my pants whenever I see it.

 

650 horse awd ruf turbo

But I'd also like to do a mild custom 55 Buick special with a dual quad 425 and a 4 speed, a bootlegger-style 39 Ford with a 50's caddy motor and a LaSalle gearbox, a 54 Chevy w/a 283 4 spd, either a 56 F100 w/ a 364 nailhead and an sp400 or a 55-57 Chevy p/u w/a 283 or 327 & a th350, a 69 superbee clone with one of those new crate hemis & a pistol grip 4spd, a gasser style 55 or 56 Ford with a 413 max wedge (not sure which tranny I'd go with here), a 66 or 68 427 4speed Impala SS, a mild custom bullet nose t-bird (drivetrain doesn't matter here), a 63 sebring silver vette convertable, a 59 or 60 Caddy with bags, etc. etc. etc.

Of course I also have the obligatory dream of stumbling on the barn kept 32 ford roadster that was hot-rodded in the 50's and stuffed in a barn in the 60's (preferably with a caddy motor w/a lasalle tranny, or a hemi).

I also would like a zagato bodied Aston Martin, a jag e-type, a 62 Ferrari 250 GTO, a 275gtb, a 57 california, a daytona coupe, a Cobra,

ahh fuck it. I could be here all night.
