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?

Them was fun times...

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...

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


1976 Honda CB550F 4 cylinder

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. It was literally a hand-me-down from my Mom. I was still pretty cool on the open road though.

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
