Silver/black '82 Nissan 280zx 2+2 ,5-speed, posi, factory blaupunckt audio
Two tone brown 80 Honda cm400 "custom"... same bike was offered as an automatic that year. I am pretty sure a Honda Hurricane lifted it's leg on my wussy little bike regularly but I have no proof.:warning: It was literally a hand-me-down from my Mom. I was still pretty cool on the open road though.:rolleyes:

The year was 1989. I did not get my '68 until June 24th of that year and still have it.

1982 RX-7 and a 1985 Honda VF500 Interceptor. Both really shaped how I view performance and my expectations

I pretty much have you all smoked - '74 Datsun long bed pickup. At least it was red. :sieg:

Replaced it with a '66 GTO when I graduated in '76.......slight improvement but the truck was definitely a better dirt bike hauler. :D

The same POS I waste money on now a days. There was enough NOS in that engine to put a small rocket into orbit. I think that was the cars 5th engine, my 2nd, and at least the 4th trans.

48HP VW Rabbit diesel. I'm not kidding 48HP. Old ladies in American V8 s would beast me from stoplights when they were half throttle. :bang:

I proceeded to abuse here for 2 years. until she left me. :bang:

Class of "73" Voted most likely to abuse a motor vehicle!
I still have the bill of sale for the Z/28

I have a 67 ss chevell, I am always jealous of the guys that actually lived those muscle car years, I was born 72,

My first ride was a 1962 Ford Van with a 289 engine… and 3 speed column shift. I primmered it, added some nice seats, and a new stereo system. I remember cruising around listening to Ted Nugent “Cat Scratch Fever”, Foghat “Slow Ride” and stuff like that… good music and fun times in the 70’s :D (class of '77).

I bought my 69 Camaro when I was 21 for $2,200 and I’ve had it ever since. Now I just spent twice that to upgrade the trans, Lol.
