Fantasy car/ reality car

Recommended Posts

My fantasy car is a Ferrari 308 GTB. Ever since I was stationed in Hawaii and saw the "Magnum PI" car I have always imagined driving that car. My reality car is a Saturn 4 dr sedan (1999) 145000 miles. (The wife has the new car)

Dream: Porsche 911 Targa
Reality: 1973 VW SuperBeetle (still under construction, but with a monster motor that I built).

So in reality right now and for the past two years its simply been a Kawasaki Vulcan 800 Classic and now its also a BMW 1150RT.

EDIT:

Further dream cars:

1933 Ford 5-window, chopped channeled and just a flat out rat rod with a flat-head V8. (all built by me)

Custom built Knuckle head (built by me)

International Scout

1985 K-Blazer

1957 Coupe Deville

1946 Dodge Powerwagen

Well, the list could go on. Its a long list of dream project cars. Hopefully I will live long enough to be able to build a few of them. I DO NOT want a custom built by someone else. That's just not worth anything, in my mind. You have to have sweat equity in the vehicle to make it "yours."

Fantasy: 1967 Corvette hardtop convertible with L88 hood scoop.

Reality: Sold my Wrangler prior to deploying to Iraq. Looking for an F150 four door.
I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet..

But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course.

Black TOP of the range Robin Reliant. With flames painted up the side. Or maybe it's an M5. You pick. :)



Didn't a Robin Reliant get shot into space?
