Kinda older than most people's tastes seem to be, but here goes:

1958 Plymouth Fury
1959 Cadillac Eldorado convertable
1935 Dusenberg "SSJ"

For slightly newer, give me a '68 Charger or a '78 Trans Am SE or a '70 ElDorado (say yes to 500 cid).

For the modern era, I'd say I want a Roadmaster, except I have one :)

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner. Red if you don't mind, or since we are dreaming one of Dick Harrels ZL-1's will do.

Not a bad list at all.  I'd only change the 67 mustang to a '65 fastback, but the rest would be there.  I'm a bit suprised you did not add the '86 Grand National.  It seems to fit in with the tone of your list.

I'd gladly take a 427 SC Cobra over any of them.  Hell... if you're gonna dream, you might as well dream big.

Yeah, the Cobra is the king.  I'm a 289 man though.
289 is like the 20 year old hottie.  427 is when she's 35 and has had breast implants and collagen injections.

86' grand national was all smoke and mirrors, It was fast, but being from 86', It ( In my book) wouldn't be in the 60-70 class muscle car. It really didn't have the torque, I really think my GTO would go just as fast draggin a trailer w/ a boat!

74' Cutlass 442 was also a very nice car. swivel seats, nice lines.

The GNXs were low 13 sec cars.  Unless you did a lot of work on the GTO I don't think it's any faster.
