Ray (GRB) let's hear the story, I'm sure there are several out there - (lot of wealthy people with the desire for a "money no object muscle car). I would think Jay Leno's Toronado was one of them.

Everything in Charley's garage (both present and past). That should pretty much cover it.

Just one:

Black 66 SS with Red bucket seat interior, 4 speed, prefer 360hp or 375hp, any options after that are negotiable. Oh and done to the highest of levels of correctness. The BEST!

Problem is not money.. just finding one. and have no desire to build another.

Donut - I posted that last nite after a great martini and an even better Cuban. That same euphoria is not quite with me this AM. But, I will tell the story soon. Has to do with getting carried away with power and the fact that I proved that you can have too much HP (at least I can) and it ruins an otherwise great car.

Lets add a twist...........What would be in your collection REAL OR NOT?.........or, What would you have built if you were the designer back then?, and....If you could build your own supercar today what would it be?

original engine/drivetrain would not bother me for this car, My gotta have it on any car is always more than original drivetrain, it's a QUALITY top notch, make ya drool over restoration.

If you can find one with original drivetrain and the above.. a BONUS!!

The 66 or 67 L-78 I am currently looking for must have original drivetrain, but the color specs don't matter., here we are just talking about dream car.

How about Ed Hedrick's old sYc Camaro? I think that'd be the one for me.
