Gotta be the Scorpion Ferrari 250 GT built on the Datsun Z 240-280 platform. Even the stock datsun 240Z dash looks like it belongs in the Ferrari, and the best thing about it - is that we dont have to look at that squared off  Fiero dash. But to see the Scorpion Z is a vision of beauty. Wow- even a hatch in the rear for carrying stuff. Oh Yeah back to the time when you could actually lift the hood on a car and actually know where everything was.

The company was bought out - and is currently in production in Great Britain. So getting replacement parts for this baby is a bit more than just calling up UPS. If one comes along in good shape- I will def. check it out.
They can be found at   omsportcars.com

A 540K Mercedes is my favorite.  Easy to work on, fun to drive everyday.

Yeah I'm not a big fan of the plastic engine covers that have been moving from the European market into the U.S.
