I have always loved cars, when I was a kid I would buy Cummings Motor news just to look at the ads and dream.

Someone here got me hooked on "Bring a Trailer", during the day I will just look at some of the ads and dream....if I had a great deal of disposable income and a huge garage

Like Jay Leno but less annoying (I still watch his show)

Like this one...just to look at and enjoy the hand builtness

or this...how iconic a pink Tbird

Arguably prettier that the XKE

SO what cars are on your BaT wish list?

I'm considering placing a vehicle on BaT here in the coming months, actually. It is nice to hear there are other SF folks who browse BaT regularly and daydream, like me.
I use it primarily for market research for the specific make/model that I may be selling. However, I always get sidetracked looking at other cars.

A pristine '86 CRX with under 100K for under $3K.

You did say "wish".

The wife has already told me what goes on my trailer, that is when I retire.

A 69 Firebird

In no particular order:
57 T Bird
64 Falcon Sprint 2 door, black on black (was my high school car)
67 Nova
67 Shelby Cobra

Like who doesn't want a classic Merc with a big block V8

That's a fun site to look at.


I'll have to tell Dad about it as he's looking to sell his VW Type 2 Transporter...

Top #1 for me has always been, if we're talking unlimited budget:

1957 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing

For a daily:

Mercedes-AMG E-class Estate (either an E55, or the later TTV8 E63)

1968 GTO.

I’d like to wander through Jay Leno’s Garage.

I’d probably be there for days.

1965 Corvette Convertible in Nassau Blue

Even if I win the Mega Millions lottery tomorrow, I can never see me having a Leno, Seinfeld or Tim Allen type car collection.

But I would like one " 40" Packard 120 Club coup,

a "41" Pontiac Silver Streak,

a "42" Ford super deluxe,


a "43 " Olds club coupe ,


a "45" Plymouth Special Deluxe ,


a "47" Chevy FleetMaster,



a " 48" Chrysler New Yorker,



a " 49" Dodge Coronet club coupe ,




a " 53 "Hudson Hornet


and
a Nash 600 Super Air Flyte .

1938 Rolls-Royce Phantom III

While there are tons of wish list cars, what I'd like to have back are

82 Corvette, my first one

54 Oldsmobile - my first car, belonged to my grandfather who kept it for me vs selling it upon many offers by folks, when I turned 16.

2000 Heritage Softail custom built, custom paint.

Three that got away....

Slightly off topic but relative.

I just sold a car on BAT last year. It is an outstanding site for buying or selling. Nothing is 100%, but you can be more confident in your dealings there compared to some of the alternatives.

I'd like to find a BMW 2002 with round tail lights, color Colorado, just like the 1970 that was my first new car. Too small for our growing kids and too expensive when I was starting medical school.

1964 Mercury Park Lane Convertible, Anniversary Silver Black interior with bucket seats

1967 BSA A65 Lightning

1977 El Camino.

Three I never should have let go of.

There are a whole bunch of them, but there are two that I have owned in the past that I would love to have back.

1985 Dodge Omni GLH Turbo in Santa Fe blue.

1969 Dodge Super Bee. Plumb Crazy Purple, Sub Lime Green, Go Mango, Hemi Orange would be top choice colors.

Cars that I never owned, but I would love to have, in no particular order and not a full list.

Subaru Brat.
Subaru 360.
Subaru Baja (turbo model).
Subaru Legacy GTB Sports Wagon.
Toyota Century.
Nissan Figaro.
Nissan R-33, R-34, R-35.

69 Dodge Charger Daytona.
70 Plymouth Super Bird.
70 Dodge Charger.
70 Plymouth Hemi Barracuda convertible.
70 AAR 'Cuda.
70 T/A Challenger (Panther Pink).
65 Dodge Super Stock.

69 Yenko Chevelle.
67 Corvette 427 convertible.

69 Ford GT40.
68 Ford Mustang GT 500.

There are more....but we will be here the rest of the year....


ARman

1941 Willis Coupe
1969 AMC AMX 390ci 4 Speed

A Lancoa Stratos.... one sold on BaT lad years for around $150k I think.
