Rarest car owned
Not really all that rare, I guess, but the rarest for me was my "Q code" 1972 Mach 1 with a 351 Cobra Jet, 4 speed. The '72 models were the rarest of the first generation Mustangs but I don't know how many were CJ's.

My first car was a 1937 Ford Business Coupe--highly customized-14 coats of dark blue(almost purple) lacquer--kept looking for it to show up at the Barrett/Jackson auction--LOL. Also had a 1957 Jaguar Saloon--loaned it to David Crosby(in 1962) for two weeks while I did my Marine reserve duty--does that make it rare? LOL And, a 1979 Trans Am WS6--last of the high performance big-blocks.

1963 ****** flatfender pickup
I owned this for a few years. Had Dana 80 rear end with 5.13's
Dana 60 front end from an F-350. Powered by a built 302 with a 3 speed manual. Tires were 33"x12.5" M/T's. 12,000 lb. winch on a custom front bumper. It would go ANYWHERE! It was bright red too!

Well...
The rarest car I have owned (still own it) is a 1993 Teal Cobra with black cloth interior. I believe there were only like 138 made with that color combo. It also has a factory sunroof, CD player and rear defroster.
My wife owns a 1995 Cobra convertible with the hardtop option. It's documented 1 of only 499, a couple of which I know have been wrecked.

I had a couple of 390 GTA Mustangs, a black one and a green one that looked a lot like the Bullitt movie Mustang in the original car chase scene.
But the rarest has to be the 1970 AAR Cuda, sold it with less than 50,000 miles on it.

own a '68 Corvair that I installed a 350 LT1, mid-engine. What an awesome little car. I had a Jag V12 radiator in it and never had a problem with overheating. I did break a few spider gears in the transaxle. Just had to be careful with real hard starts in 1st. It was a great sleeper, exhusts came out in the stock Monza location, just had a V8 growl. Until you stepped on it then everyone knew. To answer the ??? '64 Dodge Polara w/426 Max Wedge, '74 Euro spec Porsche 911S. It sucks not being able to keep all of your toys.
Tachophile:I met you at the POCA / Vegas event last year.Your car wouldn't start at the track.I offered to help but there were already too many "experts"offering to help.LOL
