1968 Chrysler Newport-It was my winter car. I bought it for $300 and it floated down the road and had a big old back seat. :D

Oh man, another Chrysler Newport...Mine was a 4 Door 1965....First car so I didn't care...It got me from point A to point B and gave me freedom...

The one in my avatar and signature! LOL:thumbsup:

So............If you were in the insurance business what would you have charged a high school kid driving a newer Corvette that couldn't see over the steering wheel? :mock:

1978 Toyota Celica GT :D

1975 Toyota Corolla and finished my Senior year with a 1984 Camaro Z28 5.0 H.O. with a 5 spd.

Them was fun times...:thumbsup:

I did have an X1/9 after High school where we could pull the floor plugs in the front compartment and fit a 15 gallon Keg in it and go to the drive in movies...The front 1/8 panels, not 1/4 panles because the car was too small, would frost up from the Ice...

I went in to go pee and when I came out ,my friends had turned the car sideways between the speakers..

I am sure we were obnoxious and wrecked the movie for others..

That same night I went to Jail for a DUI and they found another friend in the gutter in front of his house...1979....Them was the days...:thumbsup:

96 RGV250T - First road bike :thumbsup:
88 Toyota Supra Twin Turbo - Those were the glory days of used japanese imports here, I bought the Supra for about the same as a home PC cost back then!

1965 Ford Mustang w/ straight 6 (170 cu.in.- a whopping 101hp) 3 speed stick on the floor, cost $350. The car had no carpeting in it. So I went down to the local carpeting store and picked up some green "shag" carpeting. That was my first ever, modification to a car. Life was very simple back in 1973.

looked almost exactly like this one
