    [​IMG]Easy, the ex Dr. Peter Williamson Bugatti Type 57SC, in the summer of 1971 this was a $65,000 World Record at auction sale, later won Pebble Beach after a total restoration. Owning it now then reselling it for half of what it sold for 2 years age would allow me to really start collecting cars.

    That's a real easy one... I agree the '51 LeSabre of Harley Earls is the one.

    Bugatti Type 41, the "Esders" roadster:

    This was subsequently rebodied, but a replica was built many years later from available Type 41 parts.

    Gut reaction would be the LeSabre, but this is gonna take some thought...
    I sure wouldn't kick the So-Cal belly tank, or the Olds 88 conv't pictured below, out of my garage for leakin oil:p
    And just cause I have these:)

    How about the original car used on the Hollywood sound stage in the 60s to film the series "The Untouchables"? It could be yours - PM me.

    For decades this car was a good old friend ( Just like it's owner/builder), and I could go see them at a moments notice,.. even have some wrench time on it. But now, even tho the current owner is a good friend, and he is very gracious,... geography makes it logistically impossible.

    I would love to own the old girl,.. But, I still think it's in the best place possible,... with the best owner it could have.

    The Frank Mack Roadster.

    Second choice,.. The Doane Spencer Roadster.

    I'd take any one of Bruce Meyers 32 Fords. The red coupe w/ the ardun in it would be tops I guess. The Doane Spencer roadster too !!!
