I drive old cars, regular cars. I'm very pragmatic. I love getting good mileage and comfortable rides.

But I dream of restomod classic American muscle cars. They're expensive, but IMO, worth the money.

When I was a teenager, I bought a fun '65 Corvair that had a highly modified V8. It had been chopped, altered and modified a lot. Super fun car to drive. It only weighed 2,200 pounds with me in it. Quick and nimble.

My other wild car was a 1962 Chevy II with 1,000 hp that was street legal. I built most of it, from the frame to the narrowed 9" Ford rear end. I eventually sold it to a friend who did a lot of work on it too. It ran 8.38 seconds / 150 mph in the 1/4 mile. It was acheived on just the NA motor. No blower, turbo or nitrous.
