Dream car/truck thread. What's yours.

Car is easy. The new Ford GT. I'd die happy.

Truck is hard...they haven't built it yet. I want a power nothing, bare bones, 6 sp manual transmission, manual transfer case, Cummins 4BT, front and rear lockers, heavy half ton with a Ford body on 31's. Tow 7k without flogging it, drive through about anything, decent ride, and get 25 MPG. That's all I need.

 

OK lukem It is time to wake up from your dreaming.

 

I don't dream about cars anymore. A truck - that's a different deal. I want a pre-2004 3/4 ton flatbed diesel (my wife would HATE that ). Oh, and it has to run fairly well and cost nothing. Well, we are dreaming, right?

 

1997 F350 crew cab dually. 4x4 conversion with F-550 axles so it will turn stupid tight, and air ride suspension. Probably some sort of common rail Cummins swap, and 4 newer king ranch bucket seats and consoles

At this point though, I'd just be happy with a new loaded our 3/4 ton. GMC or Ford with a gas engine. Never have to screw with a project again.

 

That's my favorite Ford body style.

 

Late 60's / early 70's MGB roadster, and a 4wd beater truck of any variety. And an econobox of some sort to use most of the time.

 

That new bronco is giving me all kinds of feelings.

 

My dad had a 74. Hope you like tinkering.

 

A 1966 Chevy p/u 4x4 shortbed with updated injected 350, auto trans, cruise, a/c power windows etc.....

 

A trans am ws6 was my dream car, then I bought one years ago. Then got married and sold it because I didn't drive it and didn't have a good place to keep it. Now my dream truck is pretty much what I've got. Paid off, not too pretty that I'm afraid to use it as a truck, and darn reliable.

 

Hence the econobox ...

But I don't need another project, I have a 1947 Stinson Voyager (airplane) in the garage waiting for me.

 

If we are dreaming...... I've always wanted a Unimog.

 

1972 Cheyenne Super, I had one many years ago......wish I still had it!

 

1969 Ford 302 boss mustang. 2 of them. One to keep 100 percent original and take out once or twice a year. Another to modernize, update radio, motor, trans, comfortable seats, better handling, make it loud, turn it into something you fear when you hear it, and shudder when you see it. Both cars to be yellow with the black. Saw that car the first time when I was a kid and have been in love ever since. And it's 20 years before I was even born!! You said dream car so yes, I dream big!!

 

For a crew cab, its mine too. Only thing I dont like is that the way I sit in them, my knee is always leaning against the little pod on the door panel for the power locks, and it's less than comfortable.

 

How much is that? 80k$ American?

 

At least.

 

AC Cobra 427 and I'm liking that Unimog suggestion above.
