1. 1969 Cadillac Fleetwood Seventy-Five Limousine with landau roof. Black is acceptable but I would prefer dark blue because I already own a black limousine.


2. 1969 Dodge Coronet R/T with 440-Magnum, 3-speed Torqueflite transmission with shift kit and 3.55:1 gears.


3. 1968-'69 Dodge Charger R/T with 426-Hemi, 3-speed Torqueflite transmission with shift kit and 4.10:1 gears. (The one in the photo is a '68 with the 440-4 bbl engine.)

Good choices, but what engines would they have? Maybe a 390 for the '68 Cougar?

Mine are:

1. 2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom
2. 2011 Ferrari 458 Italia
3. 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS
1969 is my favorite years for cars, so of those in your list, I would pick the '69 Camaro SS, especially if it has the 396-4 bbl engine.

To add 3 cars to my collection, say Jay Leno decided to buy me 3 cars, whatever I wanted?

F40 Any year 87 to 89, I'm not that picky.
1967 275 GT (the car in the movie, Rendez-Vous) (well, the car that provided the soundtrack, anyway) (one of 7)
Hemi, 4-speed Superbird. (one of 90-something) (all Superbirds are 1970 MY)

Total bill would probably be over $10,000,000.00, with 7 or so of it in the 275.

Hey, if someone else is buying, why not ask for a Yenko?

I agree, 69 was a vintage year for almost all cars, the same as 74 was a bad year.

So far I only see Fleet, Steel, Surprise, and I picking 3 cars that would be worth more in 2021 than they are today. Just sayin'.

A 289 or 302 v-8 would be fine. A 390 would be horrible on gas but a 289 & 302 isnt that good on mpg to begin with. Im not sure how much a gal of gas was in 68, 70 & 71 but i know it was dirt cheap compared to todays high oil prices. UGH !!!!
