So interesting how different folks have different strokes?

 

C’mon Mike, you know you’re gonna have to pick something...Don’t keep us hanging!

Lots of great choices so far, but wow what a tough subject to narrow down to just one! So many styles stand out to me, but mine would have to be the '68-'72 GM A-body.

The 1932 Ford, in it's various iterations, is the most iconic styling statement (this was a one-year only style) ever made in the automotive industry.  -RRR

Thought it was the coolest car ever, but my uncles were always saying it was some kind of kit car...

Yes.... The Manta Montage that was used in the show was a kit that is based on the M6GT. I believe you can still buy one! You must be about 5 or so years older than me.

Here's another pic of a McLaren....

For trucks, I think the best looking ones ever are the ‘55-‘59 Chevys. Particularly the ‘55!

I love that car but the name keeps throwing me back to my old Spanish teacher and his attempts to teach us idioms.  "Entre la espada y la pared" translated "Between the sword and the wall" or the English equivalent "Between a rock and a hard place"

I've always been a sucker for wagons. This one's on top of my list.

Oh man, that Buick Caballero hardtop wagon is hard to beat.  Absolutely gorgeous!  Another Buick I would pick is the '53 Skylark, the only Buick of the era that didn't don portholes.
