    It may sound self-serving but my favorite all time car is a '66 Buick Riviera. It's a car that combines Autorama smooth style, early 60's style luxury, muscle car style urge, and looks already customized. Plus it's a really good road car. And I've got one!

    I'd pick the most expensive one in the lot, flip it, and use the cash to buy all the other cool cars I want lol....

    But since you asked, I'm still hungup on model a coupes. I know it's not the most expensive or flashy ride out there but when I close my eyes at night, that's the car I build in my head.

    I'm obviously not a true traditional hot rod afficionado. But then again money changes everything. 1962 Ferrari Lusso Speciale Berlinetta Coupe.

    oooh the cunningham C4 is wicked cool with the sprint car style steering wheel so rough and awesome. (it was a big Mopar in it right?)
    So many cars i love em.how can you say no to a miller or a morgan +8?
    but i am leaning from a visual stance on this- one of the coolest racecars ever built in the brothers own garage.... check out Speedy Bills museum page
