Your dream cage?

Oops.

Camaros have always been my fav.  (My screen name is Camaro backwards for the non-observant)  I like other cars, but something about a four-seat balls-to-the-wall corvette-in-sheeps-clothing appeals to me.  Plus, it's sexy as hell.  I own a '99 Camaro coupe with t-tops (looks just like the one above without the SS trim -- stripes, hood, and rims.

For what I really want...'70-73 Datsun 240Z...but...with a twist, a '95 Chevy LT-1 350ci and a Tremec T56 6-speed tranny.  Add another twist, twin turbo, intercooled, water injection, running 15 PSI.  That's my goal after I get my truck all assembled again, and finally get it sold so I can start on the above car.

For a production car, I'd have to go with a 911, preferably a turbo version of any vintage except the '80s...The 959 is nice, but I wouldn't want to drive it anywhere for fear of breaking something REALLY REALLY expensive...Got a shadetree mechanic friend who worked on a late 60's 911/912 (Can't remember what it was) but it was a beotch to get at anything on the friggin' car...

Last option would be one of the homologation specials for any model, be it WRC type stuff, vintage Mopar NASCAR stockers for the road, or the original Z28 302ci Camaro.  All would just reek of high society engineering...

Good topic, btw...Much better than the cuffs/whips/black leather type stuff, in my humble opinion...

a 1969 ZL1 CAMARO

all i want is 1 of the 69 made

[Roadstergal]

I can think of a lot of cars that I would like someone I know to own and maintain so that I could drive it.

But man - owning something like that Ferrari GTO?  It would take more time and money than I have.

My current cage is fun, light, reliable as all heck, handles like it's on rails, is infinitely customizeable, gets good mileage, does sun, rain, and snow, is cheap to maintain, and puts a smile on my face.

When I have a few more track schools under my belt, I'll put on a Flyin' Miata stroker kit and turbo, at which point it will be faster than stink, in addition to the above.

3rd Gen RX-7, or a motor for my Second Gen  :lol:

69 Camaro 305

didnt have it then

it was a 302 ID'd by a DZ suffix in the block casting numbers.
it was weird the way chevy made it, it was like a 283 crank, into a smallblock 400 and small chamber heads with 2.02 valves, the engine ran a 4150 holly i belive and was bolted to either a m21 or m22 close ratio 4speed (cant remember which one thogh) it also had a redline of 9000rpm
it was only used 3 years and was built for runnin trans-am races,   part of the rules was a factory production car wiht a 5.0L engine or less.  it also kicked ass from 67-69 .


my favorite is the 69 with the 302/4spd, but with the SS/RS hideway light package.

this is a 68 with a bigblock but same trim package i want

[yamahonkawazuki]

but right now ive got a 78  924, im gonna sell it and get another gs  
an '00 frontier, and an '02 windstar. (perfect to haul a couple of bikes in?) or this if i ever get tired of the lotus, i can run it over with this

This ranks high on my list:
Ferrari 250 GTO

That was a rather quiet entrance, after a 2.5 month hiatus.

Hiya Rich!  

[CasiUSA]

Hey Kerry, what's your dream cage of choice?

[Kerry]

It's funny - for the most part I can't tell a _____ from a _____.  I'm sadly behind the times when it comes to car makes and models.  I guess I just (dare I say it?) don't care much.  That applies almost as well to motorcycles too, but subscribing to a couple of MC mags has educated me a little bit.  Even so, I almost always skip over article that review obviously race-oriented or BIG bikes.

The last time I paid attention to a particular car was probably in Junior High ... when I tried to decide between getting a Pinto or a Gremlin or a Pacer when I grew up.  

What can I say?  :dunno:

[The Buddha]

If I was IPO rich... I'll get a Cobra Kit car... or a sebring kit car ... the only kit with roll up windows...    casi and stephen...
If I was Bill Gates rich... Ferrari Testarossa 512 TR - shame on Y'all no one picked this... oddly more people picked the New GTO, I'll take the Old GTO over the new in a heartbeat....
Right now, if I sold all the bikes I wanna sell, and the lay off worries went away, and the wife said buy us a fun car... VW thing... or karman ghia convt or the 69 beatle convt I have in that order.
Cool.

Huge Fan of old school German Convertibles. I saw this thing in person (Pic taken by me) when I went to F1 Montreal... almost peed myself.

srinath...always the analyzer!! IMO the 512 Testarossa is a bit cliche'd. Beautiful car, no doubt, but a little too Hollywood for my taste. For a newer than 60's Ferrari I'd have to go with the 1985 288GTO...understated (for a Ferrari!) but badass.



And kit cars open a whole new can o' worms. I'd have to go with the FFR Cobra Daytona. I'm not big on droptops.

i have always had an eye for the delorean.
