Your Vintage Racer Dream

So with the news that a 300SL sold at auction for EUR135,000,000,

https://www.sothebys.com/en/videos/s...-mercedes-v4-2

and that Rennsport Reunion VII is coming to Laguna Seca next year, I got to day dreaming about vintage racers. Curious to hear what yours is/are. Money no object, either direction. If it’s a Datsun 510 that’s cool & say why. No more than 3! Here are 3 from me.

1 Porsche 917. There is the Can Am 917 with more power but I want it like it rolled at Le Mans.

2 Brabham BT46 Fan Car. There are so many weird cool innovative cars and I would so love to drive a vintage F1 car, here is my pick.

3 67 L88. There is the earlier ZO6 and the Grand Sport but I just want the L88.

I'd just go back to the 1998 Speedvision Cup Championship-winning E36 M3 Lightweight car that I used to own. I couldn't drive that car to its limit, so I don't see any reason at this late date to roll with anything more capable.

GT40 or a Benz 190 DTM or the Alfa 155 DTM. Anything boxy with big ass fenders would make me happy.
