OK, so what was your favorite car?

Bustle bomb is unique for sure, but gosh couldn't pick a favorite. I kinda knew Jim Bucher, whos Chevy powered top fuel dragster was there, so I'm partial to it, but don't you have to wonder how Don talked people outta the cars he has acquired? Musta paid unreal amounts for some of them.
