Well, while we are dreaming, one of these from 1967 would do nicely. Jimmy Clark at the wheel if I am not mistaken.

I guess that my choice would be a 55 Caddy convertible. What a rolling tank.

anything that got me an hour away from something I really didn't want to be around would do me. Otherwise, not really into giving up my bits. Tho I would do a swap with a hot mum at my kids school. An hours use of my nut (and bits) for an hour in her Suzuki Swift sounds about right.

D'you think the Bruce would be willing to part with her Sheila for so little ?

For me.......my dream car has always been the Porsche 917-30. Twelve cylinders, 1,100 horsepower, 0-60 in 2.3 seconds, 240 mph top speed. I know I don't have the talent it take to drive one - but this thread is not based on reality.

That right there is a full sized slot car.
I wonder if I could hang onto the wheel during a full on 0 to 60 dash..

And the mclaren is very nearly as fast 0-60, does 243 mph, and does it with a nicely appointed interior, aircon, etc
But the 917 is a beast.
The pig car and gulf painted cars will always be an icon for me.

Well, I would not give my left nut for one of these, but I would give one of yours or maybe a couple of those chrome head covers off one of our bikes for one of these. I can see me right now cruising down the highway in this beauty and girls drooling for a ride! With this car and some chloroform and a rag, I could have any woman I wanted!

One car, that's easy, the big block Shelby Cobra. I think it had a 428 in it and could go from a standing start to 100 mph and back down to a dead stop in under 4 seconds. The hair stands up on my arms just thinking about it.
If I have a second choice I would go for a Greenwood Corvette 427 bigblock. Saw them race on the road course in the early 80's at Watkins Glen.

Cobra 0-60 was 3.9.
1-100 -0 was 14 or 15 seconds.

I rode shotgun in my buddies low 11 second Chevy Nova about 5 years ago... near 120mph in 11 seconds...
It wasn't actually that fun... (mostly just saw sky)... took about 20 minutes for my heart to slow down...
It scared the holy hand-grenade out of me...
...
I'll just take a leisurely putt in that old Bugatti...

Toesnose, I don't know whether that's a Figoni and Falashi, or a Saoutchick body on that Delahaye but it sure is nice.
If I'm not mistaken it's a Figoni body started prior to Figoni & Falaschi partnering up, but was finished after they were in business together.
