If you had your pick of any non-porsche vintage car (within reason $$) what would it be.


I think I'm going with a.....late 50's AC Ace

Any old Bug, Ghia or Bus.

No question...

D-Type Jag...Looks amazing on the racetrack and perfect for the Goodwood Revival!

if i didnt have a teener.....

it would be a lotus europa

Either of these...

one - who can pick just one?

Maybe a Swallow Doretti...

I like the D- type jag, but since he said "within reason" I vote for this beauty!

with Mark

I've been looking for one of those in the "reasonable" price range for a few years now.

But... ultimatley I agree with RacerGirl... why pick just one.

I WANT THEM ALL

Not so vintage, but 1986 Ford/Cosworth Sierra RS. Mmmnnnn, tasty.

Real vintage? Austin-Healey or GT40 Mk I

pete

An Alfa GTV.

I certainly can't pick just one.

Favorite car I'd never actually own: original Lotus Elite

Shelby Cobra! Might not be exactly "within reason", but it's my original dream car. The car that got me interested in cars when I was a young boy.

I am loving the diversity. All are nice choices....

Aaron: there was a Lotus Europa for sale at Lone Pine. $8500. Unfortunately it had a Mazda rotary engine...

Is that within reason?

But I would pull the original drivetrain and put in a late model SR20DET and 5 speed tranny.

easy queston...
easy answer

A Lola T70, not a 956/962?

No question...

Oh Yeah - that's mine too!

The 1961 Ferrari GT California..
Less than 100 were made.
My father spent 3 years restoring this car.
It is his love.....
It is his passion.....

It is his fault he didn't lock the garage

If money was no object

Ferrari 250GT SWB

Realistically sometime in my life

MGB GT

Renault Alpine A110

A 1953 Olds 88 (with the rocket 303 and 4 speed) and this particular Model A roadster thats sitting in a barn kinda near my house.b

If I get away from the 914s. I have wanted to do a 1959 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud with modern chevy drivetrain.

I'd sell a vital body part for an Iso Rivolta...

Remember the Renault R5 Turbo's? Still an outrageous car even today.

Dad had one when I was a little kid.
