oh wow.
Well .. I will go right down the line 'off the cuff' ..prolly forget a few.
'55 Chebby 2-door post ..robins egg blue/white ..bought it when I was 15 the day after I got my permit.
'59 Chebby Biscayne.. beige POS..senior year of high school..had 'tow package' and was actually pretty sprightly w/327 and 4.11 gears.
'60 VW bug convertible..Red w/white top, interior..found it in a shed in a backyard, paid $250 for it, drove it home..cleaned up very well. Sold it for more than I paid for it a few months later
'67 Hemi GTX 4-gear..copper metallic w/cragar S/S's, bought when I graduated from high school in 1969..ruined me for life..was an awesome summer.
'63 Ford 390 Galaxy convertible ..pale yellow w/silver interior..my first great mistake..actually traded the GTX for it because the Hemi got terrible mileage.
'67 Ford 289 Mustang ..light metallic green..my second great mistake, swore to never own another Ford. Ridiculous 'engineering' .. 289 was a dog, a real POS not worth the effort of makin it go fast.
'69 383 Road Runner, 4-gear.. silver w/black vinyl top and blue interior..after Kathy and I married. Awesome road tiripper. 426 wedge powered when we sold it.
'64 L-88 powered Malibu, maroon w/ black interior..4-gear..scary fast and broke a LOT of parts..pull the wheels in 2nd, 13:1 comp..my first Daeco baby.. first 'project car'
'62 Nova wagon..white w/tan interior..interim wife transportation, paid 100 bucks for it ..ended up racin it in brackets for laffs
'71 Duster, 440 6-pac powered beast, Hemi Orange w/ black interior..my first 'automatic' car. Bracket raced it for 18 years off and on. It never broke. 2nd 'project car'
'68 440 Dodge Coronet R/T ..gold metallic w/black interior..basic transportation w/headers, weiand intake, 850 Holley, hemi-grind cam. Nice ride.
'70 340 Dart swinger, scat pac.. bright yellow, black stripes, black interior..13.90's at Orange County no less..squirreliest car I ever drove in the snow.
'68 Chebby stepside pickup, Hemi Orange w/tan interior..wife n I rebuilt the 6 banger, Sig Erson cam an all ..was a nice truck when we finished.
'75 Chebby surfer van, flares, Blue metallic custom paint, blue shag carpet interior, Cragar S/S rims, killer stereo and all.
'67 440 powered Belvedere, black n white ..damn fast, fun, scared the crap out of people
'67 GTX, 440 powered, never made it past project car, slated for Hemi Orange
Tube framed, 'glas, pro-gas race car setup for street fun goal.
'96 Z28 Chebby automatic, Forest Green w/black interior..right off the show room floor. Beautiful, fast, saved our lives once, fun to drive.
'98 Durango, RED, right when they came out, my first internet auto purchase, we got a lot of comments everywhere.
'00 Durango, Patriot Blue, this one had all the bells and whistles I had wanted on the first one
Was fun anywhere.
'98 Vette Z-51 automatic. black on black ..Just plain wow. Damn fine automobile all the way around. B&B exhaust really woke it up.
'97 Vette 6-gear ..another level of wow. Black w/Firethorn red interior..6-gear really added much more to the fun of drivin it
'12 Hemi Challenger R/T. RED hot rod Dodge w/slate gray interior. If I had owned this when I was 19 I would probably still be in JAIL.
Those are the highlights
. . I know I have probably left out more than a few along the way
..and dont get me started on bikes
I will probably end up tradin the Challenger R/T in for an SRT in a few years ..more is better!
