I have a 77 Fiat 124 Sport Spider. It was literally a Barn Find. I got it from this old farmer in harrisburg Pa. his son had it years ago and bottomed out the oilpan and killed the engine, so it got parked in the barn and left for 15 years.. it is remarkably rust free... I have it stripped to the shell and suspension. Soon the suspension will be out and I can strip it to baremetal.

As for that Drag car.. I looked up the stats on it. 1600BHP on methonal. It does the quarter in 7.4 seconds. Under the hood is a 4 rotor mazda engine with two T82 turbos

I must be the only person in the world who does not dream of 1000hp cars. The Lotus 7 replica I posted only has about 150.. but it also only weighs about 1200 pounds

You are not alone... I do not dream of Supercars and Supermods either... I learned to drive in one of these;



A 1960 MGA coupe, red with a white leather interior and a 1600cc engine (that was the size of a sewing machine) with dual SU carbs and 4 speed.

I have preferred small, nimble cars ever since...

Actually, I think this is the actual one...


luggage rack, dual mirrors, chrome wire knock-off hub rims, front bumper has hole for crank handle... It also has a non standard light tan interior that my dad changed it to in the late 70's when the white leather wore out...

I like the Lotus 7, I have ever since the day I first saw The Prisoner over 30 years ago, it's just not a dream car for me. I would also love to have a Austin-Healy Bug Eye Sprite, a 1937 Mercedes-Benz SS100, a 1925 Rolls-Royce boat tail racer, and an original Studebaker Avanti, the list goes on. But especially the Rolls because it would look excellent next to my 1931 Rolls.... best AM radio I ever had!

I owned a mark 1 sprite.. neat little car that I never did manage to get running. Actually sold it for more than I bought it for.

I also had an original Mini Cooper... an ex-race car that I tried to turn back into a street car. That did not work well.

I've seen a few on ebay actually, too... I would love to own one some day. My absolute favorite car.

I went to Monza in 2007 to see the F1 race (f-ing McLaren won), & there was a red Delta Evo 2 just like the one on the photo parked next to a Ferrari.. Everyone (including me) were taking photos of the Delta & not of the Ferrari. LOL

Default A few favorites not mentioned

A few Bugattis.

The Jaguar XKSS

And for nostalgia's sake, my first car.
