1976 Chevy K-5 Blazer. Dad gave me this one when I turned 17. Had a nice lift on it and huge tires. I was the biggest and loudest thing on driving around town. I could very often be found at the gas station too. I think that thing got gallons per mile instead of miles per gallon. :rofl
1962 ford Falcon just like this one only mine had a big honker of a running light mounted on the grill. [vbpg]207[/vbpg]
Same as this It was the same as this except the body was a light green and the top was a dark green vinyl.
First New Car This was my first new car except it was dark blue. I blew 3 clutches in this car. 1977 Pontiac Sunbird (Formula Package minus the graphic). Dark Blue, Manual Shift 3.8L V-6
'69 VW Beetle. Purchased in '75 for $400. Drove it into the ground for nine years and sold it for $100. A few years later they were commanding very high prices.
1971 Toyota Corolla(used). Right out of high school for a couple of hundred dollars. I could drive two weeks on a full tank then again a full tank was less than 10 bucks. Good times!!!! Raf
1965 (might have been 1968, I can't remember) Buick Wildcat that I got in 1989. Baby blue. We called it the dreamboat. The trunk was so big I could lie down in it.
Anyone remember a tv show called Forever Night. Was a show about a vampire cop....pretty good.....anyway...he had a certain old car that had a huge trunk so he could sleep in it incase he was caught at sunrise.

390 with a little work done to it by Kushi Racing. I'd go through the traps in 3rd gear at 128MPH and had another 600 rpm's to go before I needed to shift into 4th. I didn't change the rear end because of the gas mileage thing. I drove it on the street and was a cheapskate. It only got 10-12MPG as it was. Didn't want to make it 8... I used to share the bleach at Lebanon Valley, NY with Shirley Cha Cha Muldowney.(sp)
Now there is a racing name. Except for my first car which I had modified for some red light fun, the rest were fairly practical.
