Since I've always been so engrained in American cars and this is a fantasy thread I'm going to have to say 78-79 Porsche 930 in one of the rare colors...






For an American car, probably a 70' Buick GSX in either one of the 2 available colors that year...




The difference is that I will own another Buick eventually....but not sure I'll ever convince myself on the Porsche.

A friend of mine used to have a '76 930, that car was ridiculous! When the blower motor for the heat/ac went out and he priced a new one at $600, he sold it immediately. lol

2 of 3 of those cars fit that category. the 3rd one needed a motor it looked like, but if you're putting an LS* in it who cares?

I restored a 79 once and it was one of my favorites. Only other car I should have kept was my mint 74 Cuda. Zero rust on that car and all original. Had the snorkel hood and a was yellow with the black stripe, and black vinyl top.

I'm not sure I'd do that, even as much as I love the Year One Burt Reynolds Edition which is serious $$$.

Im entirely convinced that car can be replicated for less than 1/2 of what they charge.

Trust me you dont want thee 403 Olds....and the 400 pontiac isnt much better. At least put a 5.3 in it.

Neighbor of my dads is a mopar guy. He has a 1963 Plymouth Sport Fury convertible. Has a 383 in it with 2 4's and a 4 speed. Really neat car. Has a dealer added 45 record player under the dash LOL

I have been looking for one of these cars (in good shape) for 5 years.
I would like to buy for my father.

No, but at least a fully restored car and not something that would still be a project would be the definition of "mint".
