The FF even had an antilock brake system... in 1970 !!!

An amazing car is the Toyota 2000GT.
A little sport car from a midlle class manufacturer featuring a modest 2 liters engine...

Today, you won't find this car under 150 000 $

Lets post pictures in our posts for this thread of he cars we are mentioning if possible. Love to see them!
 
Great stuff Bob. How about this one, from the 1970s again - it's the Lancia Stratos, in this case the rally car version. These pics were taken on a Special Stage of the RAC Rally, at Croft, a former WW2 bomber airfield. I think it was around 1975.

This is my car

smart Roadster Brabus Xclusive 0.7L Turbo (low and surprisingly fast)

However my dream car is this


Same basic car but two 0.7L engines grafted together to give a 1.4L engine with two turbos. 10 built and only two remaining (one in a museum)
 
This one is one of my favorites for personal reasons. This is my Dad's car. He built it in the style of the early to mid 60's pro stock, super stock altered wheel base Chrysler drag cars from the 60's. It has a very healthy 440 in it, 737 Torqueflite transmission. Out back, the car has been mini-tubbed, and it has 12" wide drag radials, so it has plenty of traction.

I'm also a big AMC fan. Although American Motors cars all not too well known, here are some pics of AMC's most famous muscle cars, the AMX and Javelin. AMX was basically a shorter wheelbase, 2 seater version of the Javelin. The top two photos are A 68-69 AMX and 70 Javelin. The 3rd photo is from 71-74, when the AMX was dropped as a separate car, and became a trim level addition to the Javelin.
