Would love to own either of these cars!

Either would be nice but I tend to favor the one with gun ports.

Would be interested in the story behind this one. When I was about that age, one of my best friends (the daughter of one of my Dad's hunting friends) and I went hunting with out Fathers and we chased the rabbits out of the bramble patches. But she wore pants.
