This is my favorite. Although it's not the exact same car, my first car was a 1962 Biscayne. I have two others in the works but they are not ready for any pictures yet. As a hint, my next favorite car is a 1969 Camaro big block.
Otherwise, a nice 413 or 426 max wedge Super Stock Dodge.Or, a Superbird
Some day when I'm rich and famous like Av8r3400...
Bahh , you're all (well mostly) going for big heavy cars that need huge motors to get them going and huge brakes to slow them down enough for corners .... I actually own my ultimate car , I just need the time to finish rebuilding it . It's a 1971 Nota Type IV , commonly called a Nota Fang .
Cool! But, I gotta admit, if I went to 'Oz, I'd go straight to a Falcon GTHO. I like the body style of the later ones. 'Course an earlier GTHO Phase-3 would be ok too
2nd in line would be a Charger Hemi. Pretty good performance for an inline six cylinder...
There's actually someone here in California that imports them a couple at a time. I think they are in the LA area, 8 hours from here though...
Chargers are still reasonable money unless you go for the rare high performance ones . Personally I'd prefer the (not sure of the model but E49 sounds familiar) serious 6 cyl Charger over the GTHO , same performance but with less poser value .

My brother had a '73..
Only it was red.
That thing, all he had to do was touch the pedal and it flew..
My memory of that car was himself-his gal, myself-my then boyfriend racing through town one Saturday night cruising, and getting into a drag through back streets and alley ways with this kid Chuck who had a green one. lol
Oh, I think Boston was screaming on the 8 track tape player as well.
Good memories..

VH Valiant Charger
The 1971 VH Valiant Charger was based on the Valiant VH, but was a short-wheelbase 2-door version. It could be equipped with a slant six, small V-8, or the "ordinary" 265 Hemi, an engine originally created for trucks, but abandoned in the US and developed to its full potential in Australia. The "ordinary" version had 203 hp and 262 lb-ft of torque at 2,000 rpm, making it competitive with V-8s. The high-performance version was reserved for the Pacer - for now. The Charger R/T had lower ratio differential; six-inch rims; front anti-roll bar; a tachometer and an oil pressure gauge. Stock, it could run a 15.7 second quarter mile. Optional was the "six-pack" package, using three two-barrel Webers to put the 265 up to 248 hp. The final option was the E38 engine, with a higher compression ratio, different gear ratios, and 280 hp - about 80 hp more than the standard 265! This brought the quarter mile down to 14.8 seconds, with a single gear change. Zero to 60mph was 6.3 seconds. Handling was "exceptional," possibly due to the light engine.
I had a 67 Fairlane. I paited it Yellow with a paint brush we called it the yellow banna.Sweeet! '67 was the best year for everything, car-wize. I've had a '67 Dart, '67 Cougar, and '67 Fairlane.
You've already seen mine....
Oh sure, you can have all those POS fancy cars, my first car was beyond cool, I've even seen one fly in the movies!!!
I've always loved that one too!! That is one amazing car. I can't remember the times I've watched it jump something & the front end crinkle, only to be in perfect shape soon as it quit bouncing.Thats one great looking Ford Anglia REDROCKER my father had one of them.
As for me there is only one choice......
