1) AMC Pacer
2) AMC Gremlin
3) 78 K-Car (anyone)
4) 70 Vega with 12 coats of POR-15 to keep it together
5) Trablant (Russian vodka in back seat)
6) 72 Pinto (flame job on both sides)
7) 83 Chevette (tough choice)

and just in case that any of these fine autos broke down, I'd want a Yugo just for emergencies.

HI Cobra 06-07-2007 08:41 PM

I was in Russia two years ago and saw some trabants still running around.
Found a page on them that is an interesting read: http://www.team.net/www/ktud/trabi.html
dang it, I got this in here but it doesn't look like it will take you there -
it isn't blue. Someone feel free to help me here!:LOL:
It was not a performance car!

Well I see it is blue so maybe it will work after all. LOL

It's hard to narrow the list to seven. But, here's my list:

Shelby Cobra 427 S/C
1967 Shelby Mustang GT500
1967 Corvette Roadster 427/435hp
Saleen S7 Twin Turbo
BMW M6 Convertible
BMW 760Li (V-12)
2008 Lexus LX 570 (sport utility)

Jamo, you are right--I knew you would be the one! You earned the pleasure of buying me lunch, dinner or whatever we have the opertunity at. Good Job!
Everybody knows DB4's were made up to 1963, IT was way too old for the late 60's Bond movie. DB5's run better too- They perfected a bad design only as the Brits could.

Warren,
It is good to see that you have such a fine taste in cars.It makes up (a little) for Turtle.

I have a '76 'Vette Scooter,original owner.Hard to beat the Classic lines,power & handling of the first year for the 'Vette Scooter.
It is all* original except for the wheels.

Running that 'Vette through all 4 gears to redline and then jumping on those hard hitting drum brakes brings on feelings unlike any other car I've ever driven.Corners can bring up those same feelings as well.:cool:

* After the plywood covering the small hole (1' x 1') in the driver's floorpan rotted out,I figured it was time to fix the 'Vette the way such a classic deserves.
I was lucky enough to find some vintage a/c duct work washed up on the beach..After using my bodyworking skills using a hammer and a 2x4,it fit.

I wonder why they only made 9,810 76 'Vette Scooters that year ???%/

Why do Yugos have heated rear windows? So your hands stay warm while you push!
