There are some sweet cars there. 8) If I had to pick one, I'd go with the 1969 Shelby GT350. Even though I'm a dedicated Mopar fan, I just love the way Shelby modified the front end of those cars, both the GT350 and GT500. :hail: My ex-boss has a 1969 Mach-1 SCJ, and I love them too. Oh no, I'm becoming a traitor! *Must stick with Mopar! LOL* :lol:

That black Challenger looks like a pretty good deal for $35K, even the engine compartment doesn't look to dirty, and some nice options. Would make an awesome project car, or lots of fun to raise hell the way it is. :P :lol:



I wanna blue, those are some cool lookin' cars too, although I'm not familiar with them. I would pick the 3rd one if I could pick one, even though I don't know what it is. It sure looks cool. 8) Is that bottom one an electric car? :scratch:

^That's about what you would pay over here. They are so rare, and in demand that the prices are always climbing. It's not uncommon to see the GT500's sell for $200K +, and even some of the rarest, nicest GT350's. I saw a GT500 sell for over $500K last year at a Barrett Jackson Auto auction. Wow. 8O They are both so beautiful though. :D

The first is a ferrari from the fifties, the second a masserati from the fifties the third a BMW i think from the same decade.

An electric car?? :huh: :lol: The last one is a bugatti veyron. One of the fastest cars in the world, and it costs 5 millon pounds to produce.

Heres another pic of it...

Not a photo of the exact car my father owned but the same car nevertheless. A Volvo (~Lat. I roll) 164, also known as the ordinary man's Rolls Royce. 6 cylinder engine, 3 liter. It was his project when he retired and all restoration was nearly finished when he died. Little over 7 years ago. Bugger, shame he had never fully enjoyed the totally restored (as new) Volvo 164. But hey, it happened and the 164 is still a very nice and fine looking car, imo.

Shame indeed. Not sure exactly but I think they stopped producing this particular type (the 164) in 1975.

Another Volvo I like is the 'Amazon', (type 121 and 122).

If I was to pick one out I probably would go for the.... tada.... first. But yeah, Alfa Romeo made some beautiful cars. Again I go for the somewhat older cars. It's all very hypothetical for me, in the sense I don't drive but the aesthetics/ beauty of some of the cars I do appreciate quite a tad. It's even more bizarre when you think that I was totally car obsessed as a child. Collected brochures and I was always drawing them. (maybe I should take some photos of some of them and post (?)) But hey, anyway....

Here's an Alfa Romeo-Giulietta Sprint from 1954. Nice little fella.
