Just like the title says, what would you do vehicle-wise if you had all the money in the world. I'd have to say I'd restore an old Scrambler. Those things are sweet. Then I'd also probably restore a 1957 Chevy Belair 2 door.



What would you restore??? Post Pics Too!

:edit: Oh and I'd run out TODAY and buy a brand new TJ Rubicon while they are still available.

1970 Jaguar XKE. And I'd immediately replace the Lucas electrics with something that would work better. Like chicken entrails.

I would restore a REAL Ford GT-40 and a pontiac trans am Bandit edition... Back on black with the gold trim and bird, t-tops for sure.

The Bird stays stock, the ford gets all the power toys

I'm tired of working on old stuff like the jeep, so I'd have to go buy a brand new GT40 and thrash it everyday!
