A Model F would be nice, say a 1904 with a rear seat unit.. A 2 cylinder auto with a strong engine over the Model A, similar to the AC engine, I assume. Not as many around as the NRS series. Eligible for the one and two cylinder tours. Anything 1904 or older are in a special class.

A slightly newer A, bought a '30 Coupe a couple years ago and appreciate the comfort, brakes and power. Still much prefer back roads but know that I can drive it almost anywhere without fear of being run over from behind. Before the A I probably would have replied a '56 Fairlane Victoria and if I had the space and a few more spare shekels . . .

Well, my first car in high school was a red and rusty 1992 two door Ford Tempo....soooo I would sweep that up quickly. However I would gladly settle for a 65 Mustang convertible instead.

My “year of birth” Ford. This ‘50 tudor. Bought it right here on the MTFCA Classifides

A 1932 Ford 3 window coupe that's right I own one

Posted: **Tue Apr 06, 2021 6:47 pm**

'56 Crown Vic without the glass roof. Had one once and you would bake on a sunny day. Loved the lines of these cars, performance was good too. Great cruiser. 2nd choice would be a Model A Roadster, but I got one of those (or most of one).

1957 Thunderbird, and 1957 Skyliner (retractable) I'll own both, right after I win the lottery.

1971 Pantera

1933 3 window, 1967 Mercury M100, 1957 T bird.
Yes I have these. I wish I still had the 1954 Sunliner convertible!!

One of those 2002/2005 T Birds. I now want comfort and style.

Posted: **Tue Apr 06, 2021 11:49 pm**

Gil, oh that a Model B (1905) were in our stable....

Were I to go a little more modern, dads 2nd car was a 34 Ford 2 door sedan (first was a 25 Ford T he and his brothers drove to high school in the late 30’s). Growing up, rumor was it was the fastest car in Seward County. When dad came home from WWII, he said his youngest brother had “driven the wheels off it.”:

Regardless, I, like many of us, have been the most fortunate to enjoy this hobby with so many.

From 1999 to 2015 my daily driver was a '65 Mustang 2+2 (Fastback). I put over 150,000 miles on it, took it apart, and restored it. I had it back on the road for about a month when a guy in a new F-150 ran a stop sign and t-boned me, and totally destroyed it. He admitted to doing 45 when he hit me. I still miss that car.

Posted: **Wed Apr 07, 2021 12:25 am**

I would drive a Model A like the one I have because it is an old car, but handles a lot like a modern car.

Posted: **Wed Apr 07, 2021 12:28 am**

Any pre-T letter car! I believed the model K was misrepresented in the history books, even before Rob wandered into the dark side! If a wish could make it so, one of those would be my first choice. Any two cylinder model would be second choice. But I have always wanted a model N. Not hard to please, any one or more would be fine!

And? Ford made cars after the model T?

Posted: **Wed Apr 07, 2021 12:31 am**

Ed Archer's #4 or Humble Howard's Lucky 7, or maybe Model T #1.

Not a wish....had it since 1985.
1973 Grand Torino Sport fastback, originally from NC. 351C with 4V closed chamber heads, 11:1 compression. Needs the flywheel replaced and me to finish getting it ready to paint, for the second time. Thought I had a picture, but can’t find it.

Well, I’ve owned a truck from every decade since 1900, but the ‘00’s and ‘40’s, so ......we’ll just have to see what shows up next !

A 1950 F-1 and bought one about three months ago

I would be ecstatic to own any of the lettered cars before the 'T' or an open '32. I had a Model A and a 1947 Tudor. I still have a '35 Panel Delivery, a '65 F100 and a '65 Mustang. The T's are as great as any of them.

If I was going to add one more, Cortian GT around 1967 ish vintage. Besides I have enough Fords, want to play with other brands now.

I'd like to have a nice 1930 roadster in Washington Blue with black fenders and a stock, cherry, 1948 F-3 V-8 Pickup in that army green color. (But I'd settle for a ratty 1936 3-window coupe.... )

Posted: **Wed Apr 07, 2021 8:44 pm**

1952 Ford F1. Had one on the farm when I was growing up. I really like the grill on them.

Posted: **Wed Apr 07, 2021 9:07 pm**

Specifically Ford, or any FOMOCO product ?

Generally speaking, I don't like Fords, .... but a few were exceptional enough
to interest me. 60-61 Starliner would top the list of Fords. A 61 Country Squire
would rank up there too. 66 Mustang in the right configuration would be nice.

But if I could have ANY product of the FOMOCO family, it would be one of these:

The dash is boring, but the rest of the car has a pretty way-out George Jetson/
aircraft carrier look. They go down the road like a cloud.

Posted: **Wed Apr 07, 2021 9:14 pm**

I will never let the Mustang fastback go that I rode in the back seat of when my parents were test driving it back in 1968. After 53 years with this car it is like family to me. First car for me when I was old enough to drive and all original to this day.

Posted: **Thu Apr 08, 2021 5:22 pm**

I'm fine with what I have - thank you. I certainly do not want to be the winner, per a quote attributed to Malcolm Forbes: “He who dies with the most toys wins.”

Posted: **Fri Apr 09, 2021 9:01 am**

I wouldn't say no to the Australian, Duncan and Fraser Ltd. 'tulip' bodied roadster, circa 1911.

This is my wife's '65 Fairlane she sports around in next to the Concord the day after it landed to stay in Seattle !

Posted: **Fri Apr 09, 2021 12:43 pm**

'57 T-Bird? Model A rumble seat roadster? Frank's #2? Model K? Quadricycle? All fine, but I already have the Ford I prefer.

Simple. 30/31 sedan delivery. 65 mustang 289, 4 sp. fastback.

Posted: **Sat Apr 10, 2021 6:18 pm**

999 or the Arrow...

or any one of the early "Ford Special" race cars (since they were not technically a production T)...

More realistically, an F2 with a flathead V8 and 4WD.

Posted: **Sat Apr 10, 2021 6:36 pm**

RE; More realistically, an F2 with a flathead V8 and 4WD.
That could set you back a few $'s!

I have the F2, 1948 6 cyl factory 3 speed but just 2 wheel drive. It's like driving a Model A only not as fast!

For pulling the 6 might be better anyway.

Posted: **Sat Apr 10, 2021 6:59 pm**

https://www.farmcollector.com/company-h ... d-tractor/ I'd get by with one of these.
If you folks know of one of these for sale let me know! Shouldn't be worth much because it's not really a Ford!

Posted: **Sat Apr 10, 2021 8:10 pm**

Like Steve Jelf, an A would be nice. But my 26 touring must be true love because my eyes don't wander like they used to.

Posted: **Sat Apr 10, 2021 9:08 pm**

1963 Ford Falcon Sprint hardtop 260 v-8 with 4 speed.

Posted: **Sat Apr 10, 2021 11:08 pm**

I think nostalgia often drives the old car hobby. My dad had a 1955 Customline. I wouldn't mind a Fairlane from that year. On the other hand (nostalgia again) I also wouldn't mind a 1958 Volvo PV444 (my first car) or a 1956 Chrysler Windsor.

Posted: **Sat Apr 10, 2021 11:38 pm**

I have two Model T’s and a 1966 Mustang Convertible and that was my ultimate dream! However, now at 68 I would love a
“Alphabet Car” Alan in Western Australia

Posted: **Sun Apr 11, 2021 9:20 am**

I have a 1908 S roadster that has been in our family since 1947. And I have the privilege to be the next caretaker of a 1906 model F touring. I guess I have my dream. Sad however because it came from a good friends estate.

Posted: **Sun Apr 11, 2021 10:51 am**

RajoRacer,

Seeing your photograph of your wife's car with Concorde, reminded me of a charity event run at London Heathrow a few years ago where we gave rides in 2 Model Ts and a Model C in exchange for donations to charity.

My choice of more Fords would be:=
1905 Model F as I think the early two-cylinder cars are superb
1905 Model B as I think it was ahead of its time
194x SEEP as I would love to drive one of those down the street and into the river for cruise around.

Posted: **Tue Apr 13, 2021 12:51 pm**

May be considered too new for this group, but I would like to get my hands on a gen 3 galaxie 500 some day. I love the look of the stacked headlights, and it would be nice to have a classic car that keeps pace with traffic.

It would be cool to find one built as the police interceptor, but I don't have to have a numbers matching car to be happy.

Posted: **Tue Apr 13, 2021 3:12 pm**

I would like to have a 1966 Mustang convert like i bought new and lost!!!
