95 v6 mustang automatic
occasionally a 240sx

 

This is my first and only car, but I did have two dirt bikes that I sold to pay for my RX-7.

1982 Can-Am Qualifier





And a old YZ 125 with a Honda 250 engine stuffed in it that I got for free from my neighbor for putting together his 1969 CB 350



Ahhhhh...memories. The Can-Am was quite the machine, really rare too.

 

They are both the same, I got the recall done already. I still check the engine mount bolt every month or so.

 

Project 7 & My other play toy = 1974 Ford Pinto


DD= 1999 TJ Wrangler 3"lift with 33 Procomps

DD for spring/summer/fall is my restored 83 GS
DD for winter, and also the car for longer trips is a 94 Accord, kinda beat, but runs ok and gets 30mpg
I have a slew of other cars, including a turbo FB project (almost done, FINALLY!), a FC "get it running" project and a 82 Trans am "needs a whole resto" project. So basically I have the next 3 years worth of work planned out hahahaha

 

My 7 is my daily...170k and going strong...I drive a good 100 miles a day and couldnt ask for a better DD

 

88 Caddillac seville w/ 380,000km = DD
Others:
55' Austin Healey 100-4
56' ****** Jeep
98' Jeep Cherokee

 

My wife (a Bulgarian!) likes German iron, so I sometimes have to drive her '01 Z3 roadster or '99 ML320.

My SA vert did inspire her to buy the Z3 when we were dating. The straight six is a nice engine, but the car handles like crap and I wish the damn thing was paid off....

 

Mine was my daily for many years, I miss those days, just wish the winter salt wasn't so harsh on cars, otherwise i'd still be daily driving that car... you're lucky

 

Mine is the daily in the spring summer and early fall
winter it's the crap protege as mentioned in a prior post. My 7 is officially out of the garage and running, just needs tires. But I can't get tires until I get paid in 2 weeks Tires on it now are down to the metal threads.

 

i roll the 94 toyota 4x4 most of the time in the winter and the svx or the rx7 for the summer

 

2001 Crown Vic Police Interceptor, ex-Oregon State Police car #202. 4.6L SOHC V-8, heavy-duty everything. Paid $2450 for it, spent a little under $1000 in mods/clean up (NOS seats, new carpet, better dash/door panels, K&N FIPK GenII, Superchips Tuner, Flowmaster 40's, 2.5" cat-back, center caps/trim rings). Has 123K on it now, went 15.166@91.79 first pass (2.355 60'), gets 20-25 MPG, seats 5 plus luggage. I love it!

 

Project = '79 SA Turbo
DD = 2004 Mazdaspeed Miata
Wifey's DD = 2004 Jeep Liberty Limited

I have to say, all of them are awesome vehicles.

 

I share my DD between my 99' model Toyota Camry and my 73' 808 wagoon.



Soon to be rotorized with a 13B bridge-port, 48mm weber, huge hidden exhaust...

Cam...

 

my dd is a 81 rx7 my parts hauler was a 89 doge caravan turbo but motor is leaking oil into one cylinder now so its dead

 

Turbo Caravan FTW! Find an SRT 2.4L and have fun! LOL

 

2002 4WD Frontier with a supercharged and thirsty V6. Comes in handy with all of the snow around here!

 

Dude that Pinto is 4 the win! My friend had the light Ford Blue Pinto and it was really a fun car to drive around in. My Granma had one too.

Yea the gas prices finally caught up to me. I am so broke *** all 3 cars are empty.

 

Here's some pics....







And for those times we just want to get away...:

When I was a kid, Dad had a 72 Pinto with I think was a 1.4 Might have been a 1.6. Anyway, He would take my brother and sister and I all over the country seeing places (he and mom are divorced). We had 3 tents, 4 sleeping bags, 4 big pillows, a coleman stove, a big coleman cooler, all our cooking and eating utensils, food etc packed into that thing along with 4 touring bicycles on a bike rack on the roof of that thing. That car was proof that you could see the whole country at 45 mph. I think we have been to every National Park west of the Mississippi River in that car.

My brother also had a 75, with a 2.3L. He got it for free when he was either a sophmore or junior in high school, and rebuilt the engine himself. He was driving down a hill one day at about 60mph and just on a whim decided to see what would happen if he shoved it into 1st(how he got it to even go into 1st at that speed, I have no clue). Well, as soon as he let the clutch out, it instantly decentigrated into dust(the clutch). I towed him home and we pulled the tranny and found the clutch hub on the input shaft, but nothing else but dust.

Funny thing is when we took the hub into the parts store to get a new clutch, the guy says, "Oh we have been having some problem with those" and we got a new clutch for free. We put it back together and he drove that thing problem free until he finished college. One day we went out this long straight farm road west of Tucson,and there were culverts going under the road. Each place there was a culvert, the road raised up about 2 feet. Well when you hit those things at 90mph, you go air born. At 90, you can pretty much land with all 4 tires hitting at the same time. THe trick is not to go faster, because you stay airborn longer and the front end tends to nose down, which when you land, smashes the front sump oil pan and leaves you sitting on the side of the road, waiting for your buddies to show up and tow you home. After he got married, the car sat. I'm not sure exactly what he did with it. Tough little cars as long as you didn't get rear ended!!

When I lived upstate NY when I was a sophmore in highschool, my best freind had a 75 pinto that was rusted so bad that the rear spring perch was coming up through the rear seat. In the winter time, the snow plows come every morning about 4 or 5am and plow the roads, so after about a month or two, we had these 10-15 foot high snow banks along each side of the streets. We had this game where we would start at the beginning of the street in that Pinto, get going as fast as we could and cut the wheel. Most of the time we would bounce off one snow bank to the other, but sometimes you would catch an entrance to a driveway just right and it would send us spinning down the street doing 360*'s . We called the game "Pinto Pinball"

Ahh, the memories....
