Dream cars from 1934 to 1970

[Mad Lord Snapcase]

This is my favourite:

The Napier Railton Special is powered by Napier Lion XI gasoline aero engine used in the First World War.  The engine has 12 cylinders in three banks of four arranged in a ‘W’ or broad arrow configuration.  With a total capacity of 24 litres it has a rated power of 530bhp at 2,350rpm.  Using double overhead camshafts it has four valves and two spark plugs per cylinder.

Holy shit.

Another vote for the Timbs Special - looks like it would really pull the girls, although it doesn't look to comfortable for a bit of canoodling afterwards.

Are you kidding me?? Check out the shape of that continuous mudguard.

Timbs Special.  

I have to go with the Prof. on this one. Sheer magic!

Once again I find myself uncomfortably in agreement with 'is Nibs, Mad Lord Snapwallah...

Somebody needs to DESTROY every single copy of that photo though, lest Wolf Girl see it.

Should she be allowed TO discover same conveyance, no good will come of it, I promise you.

Trust me on this.

MUCH evil, mayhem & violence could well occur in her pursuit of possession.

This is a Safety of Mankind level threat folks, heed my admonishing.

Lovely automobile!

It's a not a dream car, but what about the Tatra 97, the original Czech model for the car that became the VW bug (Herr Doktor Porsche not being above a little blatant plagiarism).

Tatra sued Porsche for damages, and Porsche was willing to settle. However, Hitler canceled this, saying he 'would settle the matter.' [5] When Czechoslovakia was invaded by the Nazis, the production of the T97 was immediately halted, and the lawsuit dropped. After the war, Tatra reopened the lawsuit against Volkswagen. In 1967, the matter was settled when Volkswagen paid Tatra 3,000,000 Deutsche Mark in compensation.

I hate that there are so many cool die cast cars in 1:43! Just BARELY too big (by which I mean it's pretty noticeable) in most cases!
