Started thinking..... 36 roadster, 39 convert, 39 coupe, 40 coupe...... etc. So just give me one of each, I'll make room.

Tough choice, I always loved the American Graffiti Coupe, as strange as it was, but the 35's are so beautiful! Art Deco can't be beat!

I love '35 and '36 Pickups, but nothing else I'd be pining for...sure I'd take any Early V8, but have a love affair with them pickups

I am partial to a 32 3W but a 49 Merc convert would be nice.

I'd like to have my grandfathers '32 5 window coupe back. He sold it to a Ford dealer near Richmond Virginia in the early 1990's. I learned to drive a manual floor shift on that car. Grandpa and the car are all but memories now.

Would have to be a 33 or 34 roadster - with an Ardun in it, 39 Box and a Q.C mated to a Columbia in the rear. I know - BIG WANTS here, but you asked!

Since Ford was not specified, mine would be my '31 Lincoln phaeton.
