They say the recession has sparked interest in old rides as an investment. Which are your faves from the olden times?

Interesting. I used to have the "luxury" version of that car, the Grand LeMans with a built 400.

Bought it dirt cheap as a beater, and was actually really nice to drive.

Those big GM A bodies used to be easy to find at one time, 400s used to be cheap to pick up too. Good times

Can you handle the Mustang Monroe Handler?

I have wanted a Bricklin for many years, AMC 360 or Ford 351 V8, front engined, day-glo colors and no cigarette lighter (because Malcolm Bricklin said it was a safety car).

The fuel injected quad cam V8 powered Alfa Montreal of 1970-77. Very classic.

The boldness of the Hurst/Olds Cutlass was something to behold.
