Pics of your old Cars

[HEMI-Fit]

Heh... I'm probably not alone in this, but all my old cars are old American iron:

The Fit's predecessor and my former "new" car, a 1987 Dodge Daytona Pacifica with a TII engine swap

Was and is a great car, it just needs to find it's way to it's probable new owner soon.

Prior to the 'Tona, I had (have) an 86 Shelby Charger

Sorry for the lousy pic, almost all my photos of that car are on film. That car never left me on the side of the road, but I felt like setting it on fire several times...

My current toy car is a 69 Plymouth Valiant I've set up for SCCA SM autoX. I put togther an EFI system for it that I hope to have tuned well enough to drive again soon.


Next spring's fun car, a 68 Plymouth Sport Fury convertible. 4000#, 375hp and 480 lb-ft = fun, fun, fun! It'll probably cost a Franklin to fill up the gas tank, though...


Add to those a bunch of Dodge Darts, a couple other Valiants, a Barracuda or two, and a couple odd Chryslers, and you'll understand why my friends and family are all a little perplexed about my 08 BBP Fit. After a ton of research, it just made the most sense, and I'm loving the hell out of driving the little car every day. Perfect for what I need right now, and I can't wait to toss it around on the autoX one of these days.

I was saving up for a next-gen Fit. But today I picked up an 08 Sport, in Storm Silver. :D :cool: :cool: :cool:

Here's why:

[sevenaprils]

91 ford explorer sport. and honestly, despite it being a ford, it's still running with probably 160K on all the parts, except the radiator, which was replaced after some hard off road summertime use - I was the third owner, now my dad uses it instead of our ford econoline since the van gets probably 8 miles per gallon and the instrument cluster doesn't work.

See the aforementioned van in the background...

I won't go into exterior mod details, you can see it - though I did add roof rack lights, and reverse fogs as well, not pictured.

Then came...

84 chevy corvette. Picked it up dirt cheap in mint condition, 115k original miles, stock everything except for edelbrock valve covers and a borla cat back. Loved the sound of this car at idle - and WOT :D
Still have it, though it's in storage. Once I get done with grad school and have a career and life settled, I'll take her back out and finish the job. Dropped in a 350 GM Performance crate motor, but never finished the wiring(it runs and drives, just the gauge cluster was so tempermental after the swap) partly because I moved the florida and funds were low. But damn what a way to turn an already quick car into a much more quick car!

before these I had a 92 buick park avenue (my first car, handed down from my dad) and had a short stint with an oldsmobile, a 93 I think - passed down from my mom while the explorer sat in a body shop all summer after a drunk, un-licensed girl nearly totaled it after she stole a pickup truck and slammed into my car where it was parked outside my house (she then attempted to flee but a neighbor and myself stopped that) Still haven't seen any compensation. She has everything going against her and yet she's fighting, mostly by postponing hearing and taking advantage of the fact that our local courthouse is backed up entirely too long.

I don't think I'll buy anything besides a honda from now on - unless I ever come across an r34 skyline. (which I will :cool:)

Here are my last couple cars.

Up until a week ago, this is what I had - an 06 WRX Wagon. When I traded it in for my Fit, some people called me crazy. I've been known to ride "waves" of going high power, then low, high, then low, etc. Guess I'm on the low part right now. LOL







Before that, the backbreaker STI. Loved and hated this car all at the same time. I'm 33 w/ some back/neck problems, so this car used me as a punching bag on SoCal roads/freeways. The power was fantastic, but the attention this car drew was too much for me. It taught me a lot about turbo motors, though.





If I can dig up old pictures of my Hondas, I will.
