What other collectible car(s) do you own
 
So, the question at hand is, what other collectible/classic cars do you own?


Yours In not just Fords,

Bill,
The Cobra takes up most of my spare money, not to mention the wife won't let me fill the driveway :CRY: :D , so owning other collector cars AND the Cobra is tough for me. Currently, besides the Cobra, I have a 1985 Toyota MR2 for my winter driving fun and autox. No, it isn't riced out, it looks 100% stock. More fun than almost ANY car I've ever driven. This is my 4th one.
But in the past, before the Cobra, I've owned the following
1980 Chevy Corvette- Worked 350. Nice car, but too many mechanical problems
1939 Dodge 5 window coupe- cool street rod. Heavily worked 327 Chevy motor. Flame throwers!! Always drew a crowd
1967 Jaguar XKE 2+2- had a 302 Ford conversion and custom ghost flame paint job. Cool car, but previous owner lied and didn't tell me it had sat for a few years. More trouble than it was worth.

Now have the Cobra and couldn't be happier!! :3DSMILE: :MECOOL:

The Snakeeyes garage is one that members have to see. There is a rumor that it is going to be on "My Classic Car". Give us a preview Bob of what you have in there. I understand the producers chose you over the Peterson Museum.

snakeeyes 01-23-2003 09:05 AM

You were close...
 
My garage will be featured on an upcoming episode of "My Ghastly Car". With the stipulation that I remove the GTD from the premises before filming, as it is too nice and would ruin the theme of the show.

Rumor has it that a film crew from the new TNN series "World's Oiliest Garage Floors" will be coming along, as well, to shoot a three-part documentary titled "And You Thought the Exxon Valdez Spill Was Bad!"

Cal's being coy, as usual. I could sell my garage and everything in it and still not be worthy of that ex-Bob Johnson 289 Cobra--

OTHER CARS
 
We have a 1970 Shelby GT-350, A 1969 Cutlass Convert (42.000 miles), A 1986 Fiero GT , and A 1969 Firebird Convert need to sell some to make room for something new (different). **) %/ :CRY:

Not the most popular car on this forum but I've got a 96' Collector Edition Corvette and then a 37 Chevy Legends race car. The Cobra is in the very near future.

Soon to be in one place instead of scattered garages (and definitely not a candidate for the "wonderous garages" show:

'27 Track T
'32 Ford 3 window
'33 Ford 3 window
'36 Ford roadster
Happily/sadly (some of you know how it is) sold the '56 Chev wagon two weeks ago.
Unique 289 FIA

Snakeeyes,,,,lol,,,thats funny. Car and Driver came to the Hawaii Raceway Park to do a foto shoot of the "local" boys doing some "drifting". They took a LOT of pics of my Cobra sideways and burning rubber, etc. NOT ONE made it into the article, the car was "to nice", didn't have that "local" flavor, ha ha! An old beat up Camaro made the cut, go figure!

Austin Healey 3000, leaking what oil it doesn't burn, currently "parked". A "30 foot" model, know what I mean?

I OWN ALOT OF OTHER CARS ...... TONKA, HOT WHEELS, AND NOT TO MENTION THE FRANKLIN MINT COBRA.... IF NOT FOR THE WIFE KIDS AND DOGS AND CATS I COULD REALLY HAFE A GARAGE FULL ....

RGINN 01-23-2003 09:54 AM

Not as many as I would like
 
Beside SPF 756, A '66 GT-350 6S2164, a '66 clone of the Shelby that my youngest daughter has claimed, a 65 mustang fastback that is being turned in to a R clone for some vintage racing. Looking for a 69 boss now. I've got the engine and transmission but need the rest. Rest of the garage is filled with parts...junk as my wife claims.

A 2002 F 150 supercab V8--- The bank said if I don't keep up the payments that they would be by to collect the car.. I guess that would make it a collectible.

Randy Rosenberg 01-23-2003 12:21 PM

My daily driver is an '01 Mustang Bullitt. It also sees a bit of track time, as the snake is way to loud for LSIR :D

Have Fun,
Randy R...

Jamo 01-23-2003 12:21 PM

65 Mustang Coupe--may set it up for track use unless sold.

76 Bronco--a Big Oly replica in the future.
