Not sure I could limit that list to five cars from one maker. And it would change almost every day.

I would want the top to look like a 60's or 70's metalflake motorcycle helmet, it could be a few other things also other than a Union Jack, it would be there to further cheese off the Porsche goons

[Dave Galassi]

1.  Gurney era Inch Pincher.
2.  Aronson's.
3.  Jim Moore's Notch, or in lieu of that, my old one back with a few changes..........
4.  My blown '62, finished as I would like to do it.
5.  My other '62 completed...........see above...........

6.  The time to build and maintain them.

That's like my idea of a '63 Corvette roadster with a tube chassis and a big IDA VW motor in the back!

[Rennsurfer]

Shh. It's Schwimmer... just go along with it.

HAHAHA!!! That's awesome! Two thumbs up for that one, Neil. Can't stand 'Vettes, but I'd drive that car.

[javabug]

I'll play, I'm kinda bored.

1. Finish my Java Green '67
—Thorough refurbish:  respray, tidy up the pan with needed mechanical upgrades and a tough coating.  Nice interior.  A very presentable 70s style car.
2. Start and finish my '57 sunroof
—Road tripper, nice interior, 6" Fuchs around, good tires, mid-tune turbo/F.I. power (about 300 should be fine).
3. Future '67
—Lightweight, kinda basic, 2276 w/IDAs and close box.  Yukon yellow, black minimalist interior, chromies.
3. Daily driven Baja Bug.  Gas heater, sealed up well against northeastern USA winters.  Approximate copy of HVW mileage motor.

And space for storage and work!

same reason I want to build some sort of hot-rod 1/4-mile 356SC, dump the 356 motor in the garbage, stuff a 2.7L Type 4 in it's place with IDAs, FAT shroud, open headers, shaved, no bumpers, slammed front axle, Americans or 1967 911S alloys, gutted interior. Maybe paint it ochre yellow or metallic 70's gold.
