Without a doubt, 1941 Willys P/up Truck, or Panel (slightly modded)..Reason: 1st time (in the 60's) I saw the famous Stone, Woods & Cookie Willys Gasser, I was hopelessly hooked.
So maybe something like this would work:

I am keeping my HHR, but if I ever win the lotto I would add a '789' to my stable:

decisions decisions, so many cool cars to pick from!
I'm leaning towards an HHR SS Panel, 5sp, Red, grey and red interior, 'bout like the one that is for sale in Niagra Falls ,Canada.
Do I get life time bumper to bumper GM Warranty? That would be a deciding factor...

Several months back, I saw one of the 789's in an outdoor non sponsored car show. JMO, but I didn't believe the quality/craftsmanship displayed, commands the selling price. Now, that being said, I will admit it is a nice looking car. I think you would be surprised if you saw one in real life, however. Many people b***h about the little things and quality of their HHR.....this cars quality does not match the hhr.
On topic ......hard to say, I change my mind frequently in what I like. I've had a couple of complete customs and a couple of muscle cars. I've also had one of a kind and limited editions (real). And that's not counting daily drivers, grocery getters and garage queens. Vehicles just get "old" to me, so I sell and move on.
In my 50 years of legal driving I've had over 70 four wheel vehicles.
