Hi all,
I would like to know what MoPar you would go back in time to order?
of course we would all order an E body HEMI 4 speed 'vert and pickle it, so I will assume that is #1 as an investment.
My personal favorite would be a Black over red with black interior '69 Coronet R/T convertible, 440, auto, A/C power and windows.
I think I would love to see my current '66 Monaco 500 as it came off of the assembly line to find out just how weird it looked with a Mauve over white paint job.
I photoshopped a picture with that color on the roof, not pretty.
I hope it is one of only a few.
Let's dream!

Didnt have to think twice.

1961 Imperial Lebaron .
I would be checking off every option box I could when ordering.

Dual a/c , stainless roof inserts etc, etc.

Also in Pinehurst green poly (GG1) .

Not that I have thought about this over the years while day dreaming.....

-items to add would be P.S., P.B. and a Stereo.

I’d still love one of these!!
p.s. Ironically, I didn’t find out till 35 yrs later Dad’s group designed the Shaker system. Bet if I had known back then that option would be added.

74 Monaco Hardtop - Brougham - 440cid - Black interior, black top, metallic brown paint
 
There are A LOT of Mopar cars I would want. however the ones that stand out to me and I would want more than any are either a 1970 Chrysler 300 H with power windows/brakes, rim-blow wheel, dual exhaust tips like the Sport Fury GT, and Polyglas tires.

Or a 1970 6bbl Sport Fury GT, EXACTLY like the one in the picture.

Honestly...

I'd be sitting down with the salesman DEMANDING a 426 Hemi in the 70 Polara vert I am considering buying.
 
Oh man, that's a hard one. I'd go for a '55 or '56 Chrysler 300. Or a '65 300 L 2-door hardtop with a stick.

A silver on silver ‘67 Imperial.:)
Without ac.

'65 300L Convertible, 4-speed, AC, electric windows. If ragtop was not available I'd take the 2-door hardtop without complaining!!

#2: '67 or 8 Barracuda Formula S, 340, 4-speed.

#3: '60 300 F, any way possible.

Others: '74 Challenger, 360 4-speed. Any E or B Body with 318 and 4 speed.
 
This thread reminds me of the Ed Norton character in the movie “The Italian Job”.
“I like all of your ideas. I’ll have one of each of yours”.
 
1971 Plymouth Duster, black, tan bench seat interior, gold pin strips, 340 w 727 trans, 3:23 sure grip, PS, P disc brakes, AM/FM radio. Rally 500 wheels.
 
A high impact FJ5 or FC7 U code 71 Polara.


Make it a double ( Brougham ), with white power buckets and a console, Roadwheels, dual side view mirrors, cornering lights, tilt, speed control, am / fm, rear defogger, sure grip, trunk dress up, vacuum trunk release, power discs.

No air, no bumper guards.
