1956 Ford Crown Victoria. Stock appearance but with a modern drive train and creature comforts on the inside. This would also have to be the family car because owning it would mean I would not drive much else. Would prefer the continental kit also. This car is just pure.............ahhhhh

Yeah, he wasn't bagged or anything. I took those pics at this local car show "Greaserama". Pretty cool show.

Couple more of it:

That even looks like one of the 600 or so glass tops produced. Just so nice......even when rough.

I knew it was rare, I had no idea there were that few built. it was really pretty clean, he was just touching it up if I recall.
 
'68 AMX. Ugly, light, fast, and semi-mopar:) I would've bought the one I ran into for sale had I not picked my fastback up two months earlier. I'd also be (more) broke trying to fix it up...
 
I am planning to build another Mustang, my wife wanted a 67/68 Fastback or even a 65/66 but I haven't been able to find a decent one for a reasonable price. So we decided we would build a foxbody next.
However, if I wasn't building Mustangs I like the ratrods for sure and Fairlanes/Torinos. I really want to build an altered wheelbase "Gasser" or AF/X type car. I have a 57 Chevy 4 door body that I traded some stuff for. It's rough and the frame and nose is badly damaged from an accident and the roof is caved in but I thought would make a cool Ratrod Gasser...

Factory Five Cobra. No question. Been my dream car since I was a kid.

Really like the rat rods, but I'm afraid knowing me I'd de-rat it ......
 
1970 Dodge Challenger Convertible. I still keep an eye for them when I look through ads. Heck I'd take an 09 for that matter.

The local mopar nut has one sitting in a makeshift barn/shed...and no its not for sale I bug him about twice a year. He has owned the car since high school and is content with just letting it sit. Neat car for sure

A 68/69 Challenger or Barracuda, or a AC Cobra Kit Car.
I hate to break it to you Mid, but there is no such thing as a 68/69 Challenger. :hmm

I'm a closet Pontiac freak, especially the early ones...and it must have a post:
