Random ass car whoring thread.

I'm not really a fan of older cars.  I like technology too much.

I love old cars and respect the heritage.  Look at the S500 and S600.  If it wasn't for those older cars, we wouldn't have the technology we have for cars today.  I love new stuff too, but I guess I'm one of the few people on here that's actually a car guy.  I just can't have a narrow minded perspective and say that I just like Hondas.

I want a 54 Chevy advanced design.

NOW!!!

That is pretty awesome. I could be wrong but isn't the car in the second picture an Austin-Healey Frog Eye Sprite?

I love old cars. I've got a list of ones I'd love to own at some point. Actually, I just love all cars in general. Except for Smart Cars and the Nissan Juke. Fuck that shit.

[timot_one]

Hahaha.  In stock form those cars suck.  The Smart car with a Hayabusa motor and the Juke with the GTR motor, are at least fast to make up for being butt ugly.

[B.R.03EX]

That is true. The power almost makes up for the ugliness. You mentioned a '32 coupe earlier. You know, Brookville Roadster is right around the corner from you. Kinda. They pump out some pretty sweet steel bodies. They are a little pricey in my opinion though. $24000 just for the body.

How cool would this be for a project

would srsly consider this.

I think I’m going to buy a hot rod, I know I’ve said it before but after looking I can find one fairly cheap. I think I have the knowledge base to fix one up if not my uncles could come over and help their all former hot rod nuts (69 Chevelle, 67 Mustang, 69 Camaro). I’m excited about this and the wifey has bought in on it so it’s a go!

That truck is pretty sweet. I prefer the '55 v8 my self but still, pretty bad ass. It looks like it has been sold already though.

[timot_one]

Yes, I'm well aware that Brookville Roadster is just outside of Dayton.  I priced out a 32 3 window full fender coupe and it was like $60k for the chassis, body, fenders, and running boards.  There's a lot of places in OH actually.  Did you know that Wiseco is in OH too?

Speaking of roadsters...

Not being a fan of old cars doesn't mean I don't respect the heritage.  I understand that the history and experience learned from old cars paved the way towards the technology we have today.  There are a few old cars that I like, but the ones that I would actually consider owning are really expensive.

Let's say someone were to spend $100,000 restoring a 1972 Camaro.  I would rather spend that money on a Corvette ZR1, Cayman R, M5, etc..

[CrackerTeg]

I'd rather spend it on the '72 Camaro or '67 Chevelle SS. I'm a fan of old muscle.

[timot_one]

I think there's a cool factor to the older muscle cars.  New cars are great, but they're just not the same.

[Rushzer0]

Happy medium? The mustang from Tokyo Drift! LoL! American muscle car swag with Japanese GTR Technological Powah! Fair warning though doing something like this will cause the drift king to come and challenge you to death races down mountainsides ahaha.

Now I have hot rod fever, thanks guys.

Looks like my previous options sold, so heres what I got now:

1950 F100 all original sandblasted and already primed $4k
1958 Chevy C10 350 stroker motor all new interior $3,500
1966 F100 long bed $1,500

Any of these would be bad ass, I like the idea of the 66, you don’t see many long beds, especially all fixed up. And it’s cheaper than the others, the difference would be a set of wheels/tires and bags.

I hope it's still for sale!
