So you're saying you wouldn't want a newer model?

That 64 Jag looks bad with the modern wheels. ....

^^^^^ Ouch! How to ruin a perfectly good 1959 Chevrolet! (and it's occupant)

Ford Pinto. Just kidding. My first car was one.

1958 or 9 Plymouth Fury....or how about 1963 4 door Dodge Coronet 440?
That Dodge was one UGLY car!!!! But it was my first car, I bought for $100 in about 1978. It was red. It had a push button transmission. The passenger fender was red, but turned out it was repaired with Sacramento tomato juice cans and bondo!!!!
My sister drove it on I84 in Orange County NY and wasnt ready for how powerful it was....she drove it down into the grassy median at about 55 and then right back up and out back onto the road!!!!
My boyfriend borrowed it one night and slid off the icy road and hit a pole...no injuries, but that's how we discovered the tomato juice cans!
I ran that thing for about 2 years.
I would love a new Karmen Ghia !
I had VW bugs, 2 Karmann Ghias, 2 Buses and a Westfalia. Loved them all and would buy a KG or Bus/Transporter but only if they had the air-cooled 4 banger. I'm not too mechanically inclined but I could do tune-ups, oil change, and valve adjustments along with other easy maintenance.
Little 4 cylinder, light, good fuel mileage, zippy, fun to drive, handy, what else? Where did they all go?
I would love a new Jaguar E-type.
Hum, there are so many. Probably (1) '66 Chevelle 396 or (2) a '68 Charger with either a 426 or 440 and (3) '66 GTO 389.
I'd love to have a (reliable) resurrected TR-6, MGB, or even a Spitfire. I don't know who owns the rights to those badges, and I don't think any small company could bring out a refreshed version that was reasonably priced. Anyway, maybe the Miata has filled that market niche.
A Fiat X1/9 ? Probably not . . .
