I always marvel at these lists. Ask any gear head for his top ten and you would get a different list from each.

Does being able to keep it running count?

If you can afford them all then you can afford the mechanic(s). That’s why I collected the scale models.  😆

I would take them all, if I had the money.

I'm not that keen on the truck or the Dodges and don't see the  VW somehow as a classic car, but I would take the other six anytime. Car collecting is as varied as the interests and experiences of the purchaser. Thank goodness we don't all want the same things.

@david-green As it relates to our hobby, I have a version of all in 143 except the Lamborghini and Citroen (always wanted one in 143); the jag, Charger, Vette and VW were must haves that I sought out.

Interesting to review how many how many in scale I have too Frank, but in 1/24. I have the FM 63 Corvette, early and later FM Beetles but different to the one in pic, FM and M2 Challengers, FM E-type, DMs 69 Charger (1 year out), and Fabbri Quattroruote DS Citroen and Lambo Muira. 7 of them. Agree with everyone coming up with different lists. The Corvette, Challenger, E type and Muira seem to be regulars on these sorts of lists.

Only one on the list I lust for, the '68 Charger.  Off list the '55 & '57 T-bird.

When I saw the term "classic cars" I prepared for a visit to the great automobiles of the 1930's.  But instead I got views of the dream car of someone who was an empty-pockets viewer in the, mostly, 1960's.   I will admit just yesterday I walked around and admired a "driver status" Jaguar E-Type, and it's a beaut.  But if it had instead been a Duesenberg . . . .

Many nice one here, but please no white walls on the E-Type.
