What`s your fav old school car and why?

mine has to be the gt 500 shelby drove one last year wish i could own one

 

^ Wow yes. In unrealistic terms I'd love a dodge charger or a dodge ram charger pick up or another american truck of some sort, but in realistic terms: ford capri, triumph stag (altho the $ of a good one of those has rocketed lately I noticed), defender, air cooled vw camper, another series landy but one that works this time lol... so many. Same reason for all - they all have character and aren't just boring tin boxes. The V8s are what really make me smile tho, so top of this would be to have Darlene back even tho she was a scuzzy hick-mobile she was a headturner.

Probably.

 

probably a 55 tri chevy in matt black.

 

Brooklands 280 Capri , I've owned 11 Capris in my time yet never owned one of these. My GTI replaced my last Capri and I haven't the heart to go back to a F**D

Oh... why? The slender sleek body, those alloys, hang on I'll be back I need a cold shower................

 

911(930) turbo, beautiful.

 

El Camino

V8 Burble, couple of bikes sat in the back, passenger footwell full of floorchimes (empty beer cans) gun rack behind the seats.

 

Hmmm a VW Beetle 1303s would have to be one of my loves definetly, but also (like above) a Shelby GT500. Goes against everything I love about cars, but just catches my heart for some reason.

I love Stags too, and as mentioned above the prices of these have just rocketed. My Dad managed to sell his for a nice price within 3 days last week. Quite insane considering the genre of the car i.e. Classic cars can take time to sell.

Ian...

 

How could I have forgotten that!!!

 

'67 Camaro Z28 or Ferrari 288 GTO

either one I'm not fussy.

 

mk2 escort RS



I love all the mk1 and mk2 RS models, but I always think the mk2 esp the RS2000 was a bit of a love or hate car and not as popular,

or a old skool mk2 nova GSI.



sad thing its its very easy to over do a nova..but I love the look of a clean, mk2 one lowered with a laugna splitter and a stripped interior


old porkas a good call too, but I will never have the dosh to own one of them

 

Or indeed a Mexico? Sorry I standby to be burnt by someone brighter than me that tells me the Mexico was an RS...

I've love an old school escort as well.

 

But...

There is still only 1 'one' in my book.

 

One of these please

old skyline jap but good jap

 

BMW E28 M5. Handbuilt (At BMW's motosport factory, know as the 'M Division') super saloon. Uses a 3.5 24v engine on individual throttle bodies that came from the M1 supercar with 286 bhp all wrapped up in a stealthy saloon shell with all the modern car features (at the time). The original super saloon and a proper drivers machine, not a posers car or one to shout about, this is a car for someone who has an urge for high performance. BMW set out to make this car the ultimate driving machine.
I had an E28 525e (2.7), not a patch but the driving experience was awsome.

 

Ive always wanted an Rs1600i. There is just something about them and it would be the only Escort i'd really want to own. Has to be an orange one though

 

I love this car because:

It is beautifully 'UGLY'!
The headlights and grill look like the business.
The engine is set well back for balance.
The suspension is double wishbone front and coil spring rear.
It gave 90 bhp in 1963.
It won the RAC and many other rallies.

 

Would be my number one aswell, I finally got to see one in the flesh at the Britcar 24hr this year, made me very happy

 

Hakosuka! Yes, please...

Have a look here if you haven`t seen it already.
