Can't leave well enough alone!
I'd buy a traditional rod for some other site, strip the paint, leave it the rain for awhile and paint the wheels red
What car would you own & drive!?!?

Dodge Viper, it's the car i've loved since i was little. The nice thing is, it's actually acheivable. You can get a really nice used one for under 40K.

Bentley Continental GT Speed, and it's the quickest, fastest Bentley ever, capable of a 4.3-second 0-60 mph time and 202-mph top speed in ultimate luxury. And I'd have a couple of Rat Rods parked next to in the garage.

My boss has one in black. Never drove it or even sat in it but my god that car is sweet, fit and finish are superb.
I think if I could own any car it would be a Lambo Countach. I am probaly to large in the belly region to drive it but I would make it work. I have loved those cars ever since watching Miami Vice as a kid. Next pick would be an exact copy of Christine. Next would be a 66 Lincoln Continental with the suicide rear doors, hardtop. The last one is probaly the only one I will ever be able to afford so I guess it is good that it is in my top three.
Do not like the wheels on this Lincoln very much but only picture I could find quickly....

I would go broke buying up cars and projects, then not have the time or money to work on them.
kind of like i am now, but on a much bigger scale

If it was for sale the California Kid would be my choice for a driver. Im kinda surprized on how many people didnt pick a rod or kustom.

I want something that I can drive and not worry about it. Most people with really fine cars are afraid to drive them often whether money is the object or not. I'm not rich by any means but I scraped up enouth money to buy my wife a 57 T-Bird and it was perfect. It came out of Cali with no accident history and no rust ever. It had been there all it's life with about 50,000 miles. I told her that it was her car and I wouldn't drive it without her permission and she didn't give it very often. If there was a cloud in the sky she didn't want to get it out. In 6 years it had about 2000 miles put on it. She finally wanted me to sell it because she worried about it sitting all the time. We made a good chunk of change on it but its no fun having something that you are afraid to use. Now my Model A is a different story. I drive it like I stold it. I'll smoke the tires in a heartbeat. I drive it every week and I enjoy it. I'm fixing a 50 Chevy truck for my daily driver and when it's finished I plan on building my dream car which will be a Rat that most people will say, WHY? Harleyboy Her 57 license tag said ALLHERS and mine says HALFHERS.

Without a doubt, given unlimited funds, I would buy a 89 Toyota Camery in fair condition.

-If I was not 6'6", it would be an Aston Martin DB5 with an ejector seat, smokescreen, and machine guns behind the headlights.
-I have always said that if I won the lotto, I would buy the biggest V12 Mercedes touring sedan, and put a traditional flame or scallop paint job on it. Just to **** off the purists.
-New Caddy CTS with a blown 572 would be kinda fun to haul the kiddies in.
-Anything I could sell for a profit then pay off my student loans

Money being no object,,,,,,,it would have to be a 70 Superbird 426 Hemi 4 speed & on that note would have to get the wife a 70 Hemi-Cuda. These are both of our dream cars. That said I would also have a whole mess more of building projects waiting.
