Hooters...did someone say Hooters? Nothing like a Bikini Bike wash when it's 108 with 70% humidity...

I would like to have both a Hemi dart and a ZL1 camaro restored as era correct drag cars,with the ZL1 being a 1970 vintage prostocker,and the Dart being a similar vintage superstocker,both cars would need some kind of 70's funky paintjobs,with correct hardware thoughout.
I would also like to have 1 of 2 "what if" cars to use as a daily driver.My first choice would be a plain jane 1974 Camaro{I like the 1 year only factor} built to be exactly how GM would have built it if they had back in 1974.The basic package would be similar to the 455 superduty formula,which means it would have a 4 speed,and 3.42:1 10 bolt with a 9:1 454 with a smog cam,pollution tubes and everything.Under the hood would look like somebody combined a totally correct 74/454 vette with a camaro.The other "what if" would be a 74 firebird{again a 1 year only deal},powered by similarly mild smog era 455 Olds motor and a 4 speed.Most of the engine cues for that car would be robbed form how they did the later 403 cars.Either one makes an interesting'what if" car
And I would have to round it out with 3 restored cars.One would be a 70 Mustang,maybe a Boss 302,or maybe a bigblock car I dont know,the second would be a 70 AMX with a 4 speed.The third would be a near perfect 70 396/automatic Camaro.

So the collection wouldnt be that huge.

Hemi Dart,
ZL1
"What if"F body
Mustang
AMX
Camaro

I might also have a desire to build a 70 duster with a 440 six pack,4 speed and Dana 60 and dress it to look exactly like it left the factory that way.

I also wouldnt mind having a really clean late model Mustang convertable just in case they really pick up in value someday.
