My MINI!
I wish I could afford a Mini, they are awesome cars! I used to work at a place called Mini Mania that sold parts/accessories.
My other dream car(s) is any older muscle car that is loud and fast.

Dream car...
69 trans am
What I have in my garage? A close second -- 79 trans am -- the body is this nice, but I just need a paint job and new door hinges (big ole two doors are hard on them)... and plus mine has 170K miles on it although it is dent and rust free --- which is amazing as this was my high school car

But those cars don't even have fins....
Pretty cool, though.
I had a yellow tube frame dune buggy with an injected pancake motor in it. it was fun to say the least.

Fins, Oh man....I can't remember the car now.......you opened the tail light to put in the gas. Argh.
I have to say tho the '57' is a nice looking car. I have installed a set of Dakota digital gauges in a '56' Bel air. Nice car, and pretty quick.
On 57s the left fin opens to reveal the gas cap. I think the 56s were behind the taillight.
The one I have left was my first. I've had 3. My wife had a really nice turquoise and white BelAir until she traded it off to fund a business venture in 1999. We would LOVE to have another like that one.

Very cool.
What engine?
I noticed the front distributor which rules out BBC. Is it a 429 or 460?

For me it would have to have been the I know you are going to laugh at me but that 78 Chysler Cordova I rebuilt the motor in college. But here is why. Motor was a 361 B block Chrysler with a 426 crank shoehorned into the block then punched 40 over heads were machined for overszed valves and then miled 60 thousandths off. Ported and Polished the Intake and Exhaust ports mated to a high lift camshaft and roller rockers and 1.8 ratio roller tip valve rollers. Dynoed out on 89 Octane at 750 HP then problem was keeping transmissions only thing she would keep behind it was racing 5 speed. That motor ended up winning the Track Championship for 3 years at the local dirt track in Late Models.

The 426 in a Cuda could be sold for $20k. Must've been a 318 or 440 Baraccuda. For my money it'd be a 67 Plymouth GTX. The last "basket handle" car fro Chrysler. You could get it from the factory with no backseat, no sound insulation and with vinyl floors to reduce weight by 500 lbs.
