my chevy Z24 that I still have and use it as a winter car, do you believe that it has 130,000 miles on it and its 14 years old. It still runs pretty good for its old age!

1981 Jeep CJ-8 "Scrambler". Hard doors, soft top. Big ol' straight 6 that ate gas like a mofo but had sooo much torque. That thing would climb straight up a building if you put it in four low and engaged first gear. It was a 4 speed manual with no frills.

That thing was a hell of a lot of fun but a real piece of crap. It was made when AMC owned the Jeep name and owning it was enough to keep me away from American Iron for a while. I kid you not, there was more than one instance of me backing out of the garage in the morning to find bolts that had fallen off and onto the garage floor. No kidding!

Grandpa gave me his 1974 Chevy Nova - 4 door ! (This was in 1980)
Talk about a chick magnet. NOT!!
Oh well, it got me to school and back.
I got it when I was 15 1/2.
9 months later I got a new Toyota Corolla. Then I was "Stylin" !!

New 1997 Ford Probe GT.

It had a great little 2.5L V6, and a sweet exhaust note. At 18K, that car was a bargain of bargains.

Modified '72 VW Beetle with a Porsche 911 engine . Lasted 6 months before it went into the woods next to my buddy's Shelby (his didn't even have tags on it yet).

My first was a family hand-me-down. A '74 Chevy Malibu Classic. My first car/ love was a '76 Mercury Capri 2.8 V6. I lost girls over that car.
