what cars have you owned

Same to you and your family........

I myself have never flat tracked most of the co-workers will be on rat bikes XR-100 TTr's..... so i should have an advantage with the old KX-250

My girlfriend does not want myself to race but i promised her that i will keep my brain plugged in I hate getting hurt anymore.

Datsun 280Z got married, wife wanted boring 4 door ( I loved the Z)
Pontiac Grand Prix, (boring 4 door for wife)

Cosworth Vega. Don't laugh. Ohhh...go ahead.

BMW 320i

Jaguar XJS, bought for $800.00. Owner thought a rod was out. Just had a broken camshaft.

Triumph TR7. damn thing caught fire twice

GMC Van angle chopped 8 inches in front by Dick Dean. Complete show truck. Toured the country. Had a "Battlestar Gallactica" themed paint scheme. Appeared in "Truckin Magazine" in 1977. Van craze was in full swing and I was painting the murals and other custom spray jobs.

2 Nissan Maximas for soon to be ex.

1986 Celica. Customer abandoned car for a $120.00 tow bill

1995 GMC Pick-up. 4 way air-ride, 9 inch rear drop, 7 inch front. 19 inch Budnik wheels. Used as rolling advertisement for suspension mods I was doing on the side.

1996 Ford F-150. Work truck.....hey it's Texas

1998 Camry for ex as part of divorce agreement. She is still driving it last I heard.

Currently own 1995 Celica ST for oldest daughter. Nice custom turbo and supra rear spoiler. Ran a decent 13.50. Lowered with 17's and Enkei Wheels. Looks good and plenty fast for a teenage girl. 1997 Celica GT for youngest daughter. No mods other than lowered suspension, 17's and Enekei's plus killer sound system. She prefers tunes to speed. Besides working for Toyota makes owning one too easy to pass up.

1998 Corolla. Another abandoned car. Needed an engine. Got car for $136.00. Paid $800.00 for used engine. Turned for $3800.00 in 3 days. Still patting myself on back.

My current driver......1991 GEO Prism beater POS. Traded in at the dealership I work for. Couldn't even wholesale this thing. Mexican wholesalers even said NO! The company wishes I would park across the street when I come to work. This car is so embarrassing the girls won't ride in it. One advantage....no one dares to pull out in front of me....they KNOW I have nothing to lose. Insurance on two teenage girls keeps convincing me to keep driving the POS. Plus, the longer I drive the crap, the sooner a Ferrari fills the garage.
