Dream Cars

[rb_in_va]

Here is my dream car. I would probably paint it the same color too. Anyone else have a pic of their dream car?

Well, since i am addicted to the internal combustion engine.. I have ALOT of dream cars.. Luckily, i can own a few of the cheaper ones, so heres a few pics of the driveway. I know they are all dirty, but its that time of the year! The 442 has been off the road for a couple of yeras now, and hopefully this summer will get a good going over and cleanup and make it back onto the streets. The pickup is the diesel workhorse and winter money maker. And the other two are the family vehicles..

my friends dad has one of those cobra's...is that the one with all the bmw suspension and stuff?

The Backdraft? I don't know much about the one in the pic, other than I like the color.

The Cobra is my ultimate dream car. I already own the other 2 dream cars I've always wanted. One is in the correct condition (clean, not-abused), the other is rotting away (winter beater).
those two are:
1969 Z/28 w/ DZ 302 (i'll add a pic through an edit soon)
and a 1985 Toyota pickup (you don't want to see a pic of this)

My best friend from Idaho had a Toyota pickup of that vintage. He sold it to his younger brother, who eventually sold it to the youngest brother. The youngest brother sold at back to the oldest brother at some point. The pickup has come full circle I guess. I would like to see a pic. Those things just keep going...

Brendon, that's not crappy. I'll post a pic of crappy if I can find it.

nice one brendon. is that a dumper bed? 3/4? 1ton? 4x4? i bought a little toy about 3 yrs ago for 200$ kind of a beater. not much to look at. but it costs nothin to keep up and runs like like a scared deer... great for cleaning up little jobs and running the equipment around-farm truck mostly...

oa,
Trust me, it looks better in the pic. Then there was the issue of oil puking out onto the tire. And it's a 2WD! I must have been seriously impaired when I bought that thing.

roger, that looks like my little friend on steroids, except mine holds all er fluids. :alien:

 

[rb_in_va]

Yeah, I sold it on ebay a few years ago. I sold this crappy little thing too.

 

[Brendonv]

haha, nice trucks, mines an 1987 4x4, 5 speed, wish the bed dumped, not sure about the "tonage" (spelling, is it even a word???)

I'll post pics once I get my new computer hooked up. Right now, I can't download pictures correctly. Don't forget though, I live in Wisconsin, land of psychos, salt and seasons.

Here is one of three that I sold last year. I drove these around for about 30 years and now someone else will have the opportunity.
I'm more into dream trees now. They're more fuel efficient and have less maintenance costs. Awfully slow though.

jason...whats the use of the big biner around the handle and the chainbrake lever?

 

[JimR]

Wish I owned this one.

I saw this 57 Chevy last year in Florida. The wife and I would have loved to buy it. The car was clean, mean and straight.

I'm now driving my son's toy while he is in college driving my truck. It's a 1988 BMW 535is. Standard shifts are no fun in big city traffic. So the kid has my automatic and I get to play. I only wish we had an Autobahn so I could really open it up.

This is pretty cool, not how i would spend my money but cool none the less.
