'86 Bronco with 5.0 and 4-speed granny, loved it. img007.jpg
'62 Austin-Healey Sprite MKII , 900 something cc with a close ratio 4-speed. 0-60 around 26 seconds but that thing was on a hair-trigger in the corners. And a '97 Expedition that I traded in for the Rebal (ride quality and handling was almost as good as my rams)

'82 Honda CB 750 F Super sport, what a smooth ride. Lost compression in # 2 and 3 cylinders on my second trip to FL, was a hot July and rode her too hard.

Possibly the most fun car I ever owned, a '72 AMX. Bought it in 1981 from the original owner, my step-dad :) 304 with a 998 tranny and an open differential. Did the headers, intake, 4-Barrel Holley and a cam. Two weeks later the trans. was toast so in went the 727 and a posi rear. Only got one ticket with her, squealing tires was the citation.

Since the statue of limitations has "passed"... The fiberglass skin on the hood did go flying one time doing 120 on a 50.
I have pictures somewhere of the '67 VW slant back 1500 cc and the Fiat 850 special, no pictures of the '65 VW beetle, Ford Anglia with an escort 1.5 liter engine that I stuffed in it or the Wartburg 3 cylinder 2-stroke first converted to a pick-up and then a rear engine buggy:D

Thank you! I've always had a thing for full size vehicles (other than the wrangler of course) but also had a thing for destroying trucks for a while too :ROFLMAO:

And haha yeah I'm slightly on the younger side but losing ground fast, officially got my first grey hairs this past year and they are coming in nicely in particular in my beard. At least my 66 buick will always have 20 years on me!

Good idea for the thread, I always like seeing peoples vehicle historys especially through pictures.
Haha! Your 66 Buick and I are in an even race. My hair has way beat yours. It went from grey to flat out retreat. It no longer resides on my head, just on my back!
