    I am lucky to own my favorite top 3. I have had many, many old cars but have settle on these 3 old hot rods. It kind of takes the fun out fo looking when you finally get what you always wanted. Steve

    Only 3?

    1st- my 32 roadster check
    2nd- my 55 Chevy check
    3rd- A steel 41 Willys w/ a blown Hemi

    Stand-by- a 32 3 window w/ a 2 1/2" chop & a blown Hemi
     
  9. I don't think anything would change for me. I always build what I happen to have and never go looking for a specific car.

    Hell if all I could get was a Hyundai I guess I'd just have to own a hot rod zipper head.

    That would be

    Anglia race car--got it and working on it.

    56 Ford Big Window pickup to pull the Anglia with--got it and working on it.

    Some sort of Wagon or Woodie to haul all of my friends around in-- After thinking about it they'll all fit in the front of the 56 Ford pickup, so I guess I'm set! LOL

    OK OK OK.... if OBAMA does it instead of the chinese, and we can still only own 3 cars, of course YOU wouldn't actually own them, the gov't would, but they could be in your name, and everyone would have to pitch in to buy them for you so we could ALL have 3 instead of what we can actually afford, and none of them could be faster than the others, they would all have to be the same engine- electric. Can only be used with the gov't approved green fuel-o-the-day, and NO GUNS. Wait, you can have guns, sorry. Just NO AMMO. blah blah blah blah blah........ :p

  15. well , if that was the case and i could only pick three i think it would be better to blow my brains out then try to decide

    but if i had to pick just 3
    41 willys blown hemi
    427 67 cobra
    70 superbird hemi or 440 six pak
    you didnt say they had to be from a certain era

    but if you meant only hamb friendly stuff
    41 willys
    34ford full fendered five window
    and my current 57 ford 2 door sedan
     
  16. But for the third one I would add a 1957 Ford 300 ... like this one.

    [​IMG]

    Mine would be equipped with a 427 FE side oiler, 2 fours and a top loader 4 speed.
    4 wheel disc brakes with 31 spline axles in a Detriot Locker 9 inch.

    :D

    OH yes ... I love BLACK cars !![/QUOTE]


    very nice 57 but that is a custom not a 300 the 300 has the side trim on it like a fairlane 500 not trying to be a dick or anything just tryin to help

    In this order...

    1956 Ford F-100 428 CJ
    1929 Ford 2 dour sedan. No fenders. Static dropped to push a pencil and bare bones pure unadulterated speed.
    But that's just me.

    I would want a 1932 Ford Tudor, with a Flathead 8 with 3 dueces, 4 speed trans, 4" chop, lowered, the whole deal.

    A 57 Chevy Gasser, All the good stuff.

    And a 1949 Mercury Sedan, a slight chop, lowered and a good low maintence drivetrain to take the family, when I get one, to the dairy queen.

    slammed, chopped, and shaved '54 Chevy deluxe
    and a '40 Chevy coupe with a stout motor.
