I have all the cars I can handle for now, but since I'm fantasizing, I someday hope to own the following:

1915 Franklin Series 8 Touring

1905 Franklin Model E

1932 Desoto Roadster

1957 BMW 507

1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa convertible

I have eclectic tastes smile.gif

My top five:

- 1954 Kaiser Darrin (sold mine...I now have sellers remorse)

- 1951 Frazer Manhattan convertible

- An Airflow (any)

- 1972 Roadrunner (another car I sold and would like back)

- A Muntz

Yeah...I have an odd wish list, but heck, why not?!

Oh go on, Sky- like you said, you can fit it in a dresser drawer!

What's that sounds like a stray kitten mewing? A little pink and white Met saying "Sky, Sky, please give me a home!"

And of all things, tonight I get a call from a retired preacher wanting to sell his 1970 Ninety Eight coupe. The dang garage is going to be overfilled before I even get everything moved in it...

No need for boxes, crates, or drawers. It is fully restored. You can just buy it and put it on a shelf in the garage.

How many people are aware of the "famous" Franklin H2O? By the way, I think it only had 12 cylinders.

I know they're not real old - but it's what I like.

Never Happen List:

Bugatti Veyron - I know a guy that owns an EB1100GT

Ford GT40

Shelby Daytona cp - real one

Boss 429 Mustang

64 Thunderbolt Fairlane

slightly more realistic list (if that's what you're going for)

Mach 1 Mustang - preferably 69 -70 big block or 351C

69 Galaxy XL GT Convertible with a 429

66 Tbird 428 - had one sold it for $500

Shelby Cobra Replica

restore my nicely optioned 66 Mustang GT coupe
