1968 Dodge Charger R/T 440

Pretty much every American car build between begining of 1955 and end of 1958 was awesome looking, especially '56 Chevy, '57 Ford, '58 Plymouth and '58 Chevrolet.

Either a 70 Nova SS, Red with 2 black stripes and a 3" cowl hood, or a 65 GT 350, white with 2 blue stripes. A yellow 32 chevy coupe (chopped), and A 37 ford coupe (chopped) Its a close one between those 4. I dont really care for them new $500,000 sports cars.

Wow...

There have been some fantastic cars mentioned.
How about the Lamborghini Muira?
Or a 56 Lincoln Mark II?

Honourable mention:
Volvo 1800
Lancia Aurelia Spyder


And I am surprised no one has mentioned the Ferrari 250 GTO
