Thought this might be an interesting Q to ask from all you car freaks......

Given no restriction on make, model, year of manufacture and the budget, what is the oldest car you'd love to own? ....... and why? :rolleyes:

Probable a Skyline 2000GT. Why? cos that is what started all this japanese skyline dreams. Or maybe a Ford Shelby Mustang or a ACE Cobra. Fast and the looks.

Next up deffinetely a Mitsubishi Lancer A73 1600gsr Rally Car. The King of Africa, will leave all wanna be racer boys standing still

A 1961 Shelby Cobra...!!

Why.., cos it is a small car with a BIG attitude (under it's hood)

Hats off to you mate! It's a real tough question. It's only one car that's required but there are about ten in my head!!!

For those who might not know much about the GSR

http://www.mitsubishi-motors.co.jp/motorsp...ry/1600gsr.html

And for Mustang fans

Have you guys watched the History channel documentary on american muscle cars hosted by Bill Goldberg that featured an extremely rare Mustang called the Ford Super Boss 429 Lawman Mustang...It's puts out about 780bhp

Less than 8 cars were ever made if my memory is correct...

One mean machine :) I watched the full programme and that car just oozes pure american muscle...

and the write up from the site....

Only 2 of these cars were ever made but Goldberg's is the only remaining one, original paint. It's the only boss 429 mustang that's automatic in the world, 740 original miles, serial #0429, 1400hp, runs a quarter mile in 8.4 seconds at 185mph, top speed depends on how it's geared but it's well over 185mph. Equipped with parachute, Al Extrand (designer/driver/builder of car), purchased at an auction, cost "priceless" (insured for 1 million dollars), 1970 Boss Mustang.
