3 kind of cars that in my book are fun,

Free beaters. Even better if 4wd or all wheel drive.

Purpose built race cars

Basic old timey simple cars. I drove a 55 Plymouth Savoy with a flathead 6 as a daily for a few years. One of the best cars I've owned, dated my wife in that car....ahhh, good times.

I'm EXTREMELY torn with keeping a totally stock drivetrain and swapping for something more friendly.... I truly like the flathead, but modern technology is incredible.

Speaking od Liter references.... I've been considering a turbo'd Mercedes Benz engine as a power plant. Talk about a strange swap
