I've been told I'm not allowed any new projects until I finished the old ones
That's when I was looking at this machine:
As I said in the other thread though
Woseley Hornet (in cream and red)
would really like a Woseley 4/44 again
any of the big pre-WW2 cars
A Cord...
Yes I'd like something steam driven
Any vehicle I could make parts for...
Suprisingly for a Jap lover (you may say) a series 1 Landrover
Or an Austin Gipsy

It's a good list so far. I have a friend that used to restore XJ Coupe's, fabulous cars. If I was getting a Triumph ( which I'm actually kinda looking for ) it would be the 2.5 PI.
When I was a poor student and hitch hiked a lot my neighbour often picked me up outside our house in his A framed Lotus Cortina that he drove like a lunatic. What made it worse was he'd lost his left arm in an accident with a potato digger right up to the shoulder, so he just changed gear with his right arm and steered with his knees! He was my hero!
I'm going to add, the 1959 ish Bat wing Chevrolet Impala,, the saloon is cool, but the El Camino pickup is beyond cool. I once saw Clint Eastwood driving a red one through Carmel in California. I loved the El Camino before that, but Clint Eastwood has one......."make my day"
