Don't know if I like the '33 or the '32!? I just love the grill on the '33.
What's your dream car...if you don't already own it?
'33
'32

Here is my dream car. I picked it up this weekend. I put 280 miles on it driving from PA to OH. I just need to figure out what to put in the big black areas on the sides.

This is a guy who called us to do some awnings and showroom graphics. They take classic muscle cars and update them with modern safety and performance features. If only I had half a million to drop on a car......

Ken, I had a friend in high school that had one. He painted it peach and purple and the thing still looked saweeet!
Jon, I think I heard that flying car is going for about 3 million...I thought we were promised flying vehicles as a common use by now. At least that's what the movies promised us. I want one of those too!

Yeah, like they're gonna let people fly their own cars all over the place when people can't even manage driving in marked lanes on good roads without screwing up!
If you want a flying car, get yourself an ultralight. or build a kit helicopter.

Hey Jim, looks like the old Curtis front end they used in the 30's on the Midgets. Dusty, there were 3 of those Carrera GT's in town last week for a Porsche Club event at the Track! I actually have one of my "Dream Cars", a '65 Fuel Injected Corvette. Now all I need is a Ferrari!

Here is a local radio DJ. He's got a pretty cool collection in the works. He actually has a second Batmobile and a Bat bike.

I think I read the new GT has about 550 HP...I think that's on the verge of scary.

Will, my good friend, George Duke, owner of Zippo Lighters, has TWO, Red GTs!! He rented Watkins Raceway for a day and he took me for a ride. He is an experienced race driver or I would have never gotten in! 146 mph on the backstraight.........in 3rd gear!!!! That car is awesome! Someone with no racing experience could get hurt (street driving) in this car!

Kelsey, I think I found thne "REAL" Batmobile! I was working at Nazareth Speedway in Pensylvania and was going to a small town nearby to rent an airless sprayer. I spotted the Batmobile on a bank above the 4 lane. On the way back, I stopped and climed the bank and found this!!!!!!!!

Dusty, a couple of years ago they used a Superformance Cobra for the Pace Car at the Vintage weekend. They gave it to me for a week to letter it! Then I got to drive it all weekend pacing races, and giving VIP Rides! I had to switch off from my vette to the Cobra each day to go for coffee in the morning! I love that Cobra!

I was just going to mention the Cobra but looks like Dusty beat me to it. I got to sit in one at a car show in Oklahoma when I was about 14. My uncle new the owner. Unfortunately I only got to sit in the one he was still restoring. He had another one completely built with his own hands...don't remember why he didn't have that one at the show. Beautiful car though!!!
Fastest car I've ridden in was back in high school in a 69 Camero. We crammed about 7 people in that tiny car and my friend still got it up to about 140. Oklahoma back roads can be a little scary at 140 mph!!!

Aaarrggghhh! I remember whenthey were "the" car to race, but when they started to not win...arll the racers started getting rid of them. I had a chance to buy one just like in Dusty's picture ...for $1500! Marty wouldn't let me buy it as it was "too impractical".
Sheeesh!

They've got one on ebay for about $44,000. You should be kicking yourself Si, or maybe you already have been.

Tony, I just noticed what town you're in. That explains all the wonderful cars. I'm green with envy. Maybe someday I'll get to pursue my car passion more.
My landlord owns a body shop specializing in Vettes, Ferraris and other exotica. Right now, personally he's got a '56 Caddy, a 2 door 55? Chevy station wagon, a couple Panteras, about 20 Vettes in various states including an early 50's model, a 55 T-bird, a couple Bourgette bikes. His daily driver is a '91 Chevy SS454 pickup.
I've got a list of cars and trucks I want in my stable. Hopefully someday.

Dusty, if you're ever up this way I'll get you a couple of laps in the Pace Car around Watkins Glen. If you like Vintage cars, you have to come to the Zippo U.S. Vintage Grand Prix in September. It is awesome!!!!! Living here is a car lover's paradise! The track is rented 7 days a week to all types of car clubs. Ferrari, Prosche, BMW and everthing else. There are cars all over the place. http://www.glenphotos.com/vintage2005/index.html http://www.grandprixfestival.com/
