1986 Mustang from my uncle. Never could get it running...didn't have the money to invest...spent all the time I had with it sitting in it.
Black with red interior.
I look for one from time to time...

Wouldn’t mind the ‘47 Monarch as a “tinker car. ‘63 Chevy 2D/HT for the “sound”. ‘87 Supra for pretty. ‘93 Stealth for cruising.

1977 Buick Riviera with the 403 CID and Rochester 4 bbl carb. That thing just floated in style. Big enough to take all your friends wherever. Old school. Looked just this this...only rattler, dinged up, and used for work.

For me, it has to be our 1989 VW Westfalia Camper Van. I absolutely loved that thing. Great fishing/camping wagon, and awesome for nomadic holidays on the road in the summer (no need for campground reservations).

We owned it for 4 years and is the only vehicle I've owned that's held 100% of it's value on resale.

'71 CL450 Scramber
. 
1971 Honda CL450 Scrambler
In spite of it being the Scrambler version, I did a Lot of touring with it, back in the day ... when the earth was still young. 
Lots of great trips and memories ... the biggest one being a cross-Canada trip in the summer of '74.
I still miss that bike, to this day.

I also had a '79 Z28, black on black stripper 4 speed car. Didn't even have a tilt wheel. Built a nice 350 for it but sold it after a few years.
The car I miss the most is a 2005 Corvette that I bought in Austin TX and drove home in 2008.....never should have sold it.......

Bright red 1967 Chevy short box step-side pickup.
Not so much that it was sophisticated, it wasn't, but I could fix pretty well anything.

1965 Ford Mustand with a pony interior.
It was fully restored, the ex-wife had it as a daily driver, and I sold it a year later almost doubling my money. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
