What are your dream cars?

Well, my 4Runner was a dream car now it's a reality so crossed that one off the list. Now these two I definitely want:

I have always wanted an A/C Cobra. Not this exact one, but one just like it:

 

Easy!

The unfortunate thing is the vehicle is the cheap part of racing it.

Cobras are beautiful!

You could get one... if you have the time and space to build one:

I've had two of these. Next to my 4Runner, my dream car (not the PERFECT car but my dream car):

 

Dream Overland Rig: 5.7L (Tundra Swapped) SAS'd 5th Gen 4Runner. On 37s with Dana 60 axles. Built out for overlanding.
Dream Trailer Queen Off Roader: Custom Rear Steer Buggy on 40s
Dream Car: 2JZ Swapped S15 Silvia

 

My grandpa's friend had one, thing was a beast

 

Might as well go ahead and build one. Then you would know the entire life/service history.

Screw cars I just want more boats.

 

That and Motorcycles!

 

I want a boat!

 

A battery powered Camaro?

 

Like other gear heads, I have a "bucket list" of cars and motorcycles, mostly wishful thinking on my part though. I was able to get a car and motorcycle on my bucket list, but don't have either one now. One was the air-cooled 911 Carrera, and had I done my homework, I never would've bought the one I did (1983). The 915 transmission in that car was hands-down the absolute worst transmission I've ever driven, and the engine was notorious for breaking head studs. Should've gotten the next generation with the G50 trans and upgraded head studs. If I did, there's a good possibility I'd still have it. The motorcycle was an MV Agusta F4 750. I've been riding for 40 years, and IMO, it's one of the best looking motorcycles ever made. However, the ergonomics were just too tortured for a 63 year-old rider, so it had to go...

 

Same as others my 4Runner was definitely a big one. My other dream vehicle is luckily another one I already have. Just the wrong motor in it. I want a 1UZ swapped Toyota pickup real bad. Someday for sure

 

Here is my current dream car. I would say absolutely build yourself a Cobra. Highly recommend it. I know a guy with a superformance cobra. Factory Five makes some great kits as well. This is what I am saving my nickles and dimes for with my wife's blessing of course. *Always Key*


Here is the real 1965 Shelby Daytona Coupe going down the straights. At the 1:20 mark turn your sound up !! Listen to that 289 v8 sing down the track.

 

How complete is the Factory Five kit though? Does it come with engine and everything?

 

It does not come with the power train. You can purchase one either through one of their partnered vendors or one on your own. Many crate motor options on the market. If you chose you could also have a salvaged junkyard motor rebuilt to save a little $$. Depends on your finance level and what you want out of your car. For an example I have researched the power train I would like and came across a company out east Prestige Moto. I got a quote for both a 347 and 427 package. Factory Five partners with BluePrint Engines. They have many drop in ready options to chose from. The orginal daytona coupes came with 289's. It's a very light weight car so power to weight ratio is still going to be good no matter what you chose. If you guys are curious reach out to FF ask for some info or join their forums.

A vehicle of this type is on my bucket list, for the zombie apocalypse. It's a Volvo Laplander 6x6...

 

Dodge Viper

 

landcruiser, but wasn’t available stateside when I bought 4Runner.

 

1970 1/2 Chevy Z28

 

Thanks. There’s a heritage in Anaheim same price.
I’ll keep dreaming.

 

I've always wanted a '57 Chevy Bel Air



A '68 Camaro RS/SS



Or a '68 Dodge Charger

 

Always wanted a big diesel pickup truck. Used to drive big trucks and kind if miss it. I’ve come close to buying one a few times but was especially concerned about these new diesel reliability issues. I think the new F250 6.7 gets a 2 out of 5 for reliability. They don’t make them like they did in the 90’s. They regulated the engine to death.

 

Growing up as a teenager in Hawaii in the mid 80’s I wanted a Toyota truck or 4Runner, but the ultimate dream car was Magnum’s
