Your first car to the last cars... Reply #35 – December 03, 2006, 10:26:21 PM Age 16: (2001)1987 Plymouth Voyager SE with a 2.6 L Mitsu I4. The slowest car ever:sleep: . It wouldn't go past 80 mph. It lunched the oil pump on a trip to Urbana to visit my buddy at the University of Illinois. Sold and sped in 2005. I just miss it because it was my first car.Age 17: (2002)1988 5.0 Ford Thunderbird LX. Still have it. I wanted to buy a Mustang but my parents wouldn't let me. I got this because it had a 5.0 . I fell in love with it and I've had it ever since. I was tired of getting made fun of because I drove a mini van:dunce: .Age 20: (2005)1993 Buick Century 3.3 V6. Replacement for the Voyager. Just my daily driver. The greatest old man car ever:cool: . Runs good. Just your average point A to point B beater. Quote Selected

Your first car to the last cars... Reply #37 – December 05, 2006, 08:58:30 AM I've got an excel file at home that tracks all my cars.. I'm 42 and I think I'm on number 111 or 112 right now..The car I had when I was 16 was bought for my Mom and I to share (but she rarely had it).. It was a 72 Ford Capri made in Germany. It actually was a great first car.Some highlights, or favorites of mine have been:66 Mustang convertible (also have owned 72, 80, 82, 84)66 Buick Riviera GS (also have owned 67, 68 & 69)67 Impala SS convertible (also have owned 72 & 74)68 Cutlass S (also have owned 69, 73, 75, 86)Several Torino's (70, 72x3, 74)70 VW Microbus71 Camaro Z-28 (also have owned 84 Z28, 84 berlinetta)73 Corvette LT1 4 speed73 MGBSeveral turbo Tbird's (85, 86x2, 87, 88)83 and 86 Porsche 944'sSeveral Taurus SHO's (89, 90, 93, 94)95 WS6 ram air Firebird Formula 6 speed (aolso had a 76 Formula)Right now, we are an all Ford family..2002 Windstar SEL (for my wife and kids)1995 Aerostar XLT (my winter ride)1986 Turbo T-bird (all original low miles car)Last summer I bought this 71 LTD..but gas mileage and gas prices combined to make me sell it after only 6 months~ I kinda regret selling.. it was a 400 cid, automatic with 70,000 miles. Original paint, interior..everything. I got it from the woman who bought it new in Texas and did a few things like the old Tbird hubcaps, an Edlebrock manifold and 4bbl., and dual exhaust. It was very cool (but very expensive to drive)and here's a shot of my current Tbird~Right now I've got my eyes on another 944 that is mint but has a very bad engine.. I'm considering doing an LT1 motorswap :evilgrin: Quote Selected

It has ZERO rust, interior was dead mint.. even the AC worked.. What was I thinking It's just one of many I shouldn't have sold~and a PS to those who feel the need to catch up.. TRUST ME, it was way easier to own and drive a bunch of different cars back in the 80's.. We could write a bill of sale on a Burger King napkin and 'legally' drive for 10 business days..when that was up, we'd just write another bill of sale. As long as you had a valid plate, you could pretty much drive a different car every day. No titles, no inpections (till you actually registered it), sales tax was by how much the bill of sale was written for, not actual value... It was a whole different ball game 25 years ago. , I've been driving for for 27 years now.. I'm OLD! Quote Selected
