1965 Mustang coupe - still have it, still not through working on it. its getting a very worked over 347 stroker motor. should be in the 450 - 500hp range N/A and no giggle gas. its set up to take a nice size shot of the gas, but I doubt I ever do it.



1972 Mustang Mach 1 - Previous owner swapped in a 460ci big block with supercharger twin 850 cfm holleys, full bottom end... and a shitty bondo ridden body. It would lift the drivers side front tire off the gound on take off. passenger side would stay down from torque twist. Fun car, but had to get rid of it. sold it for double what I paid.



1997 Dodge Ram 1500 - totaled, got t boned by a 80's model F250 doin about 50... ouch.



1966 Ford F250 - I traded a guy a weedeater and a leaf blower for the truck. long story. I'm turnin it into a bad *** drag truck. black with black wheels, black interior, blacked out lights, black windows.... right now its orange/white/primer/red/rust... but there's a mean 460 hiding under the hood...



1997 Ford F150 - engine decided that it didn't like life anymore, so it sucked in the intake gasket, about a gallon of water, and its last breath. bent rods 3 and 7, piston skirts met up close and personal with the crand shaft and that was that.



1991 Rx7 Vert - First rotary, loved the car, but it was an auto... took the good parts, trashed the rest...



1990 Vert - lucky find. gave 1000 bucks for it and drove it home. swapped the interior from the 91 into it, and put a new top on it. Still have this one. not plannin on gettin rid of it.



****, forgot this one...

1997 Nissan Altima - suprisingly good little car. Gave 4 grand for it, looked a drove like new and still did when I sold it. for 4 grand. I'd get another one of these as a DD if I ever have the need. I actually really liked the thing.



2003 Toyota Tundra - my new DD and my baby. If anybody is in the marked for a pickup, make the toyota dealership your first stop. I wouldn't get any other truck ever again. I love this thing.



newest arrivals:

1989 Rx7 Coupe - 50 buck car. don't know how or where it came from, but a guy sold it go me for 50 bucks. THe computer took a **** so now it doesn't stand a chance of starting. I'm gonna rob the good parts off of it and junk the frame...



1984 Rx7 GS - Another 50 dollar car, from the same guy. I haven't had a chance to work on this one yet. supposedly the slave cyl is bad.... no clue yet...





There were also a slew of various cars in the mix that I would use for things such as dune buggies, physics tests (how far a 3000lb car can fly) and stuff like that.... I had a fiero for a while that I couldn't seem to kill. I gave a guy 25 bucks for it, it had a fire and burned the passenger side door to hell... still ran like a top. I ran it through all our dirt bike trails, mud and all (I cut out the back fenders and put some 33 x 11.50 mudders on it) I finally just drove it off in the pond in the middle of the land where we ride and let it sink to its demise. the damn thing would probably start right up if I ever pulled it out too.... stupid damn car.

dear god i'll be here all night!



First car: 1971 datsun 510, L-20B automatic swap, got it from my aunt who was the original owner, had no driver side floor pan, the doors popped open on sharp turns, and it'd run for about 3 minutes after you shut it off.. slamed it into a trailer hitch, then sold it and it got ran into a wall



1984 honda accord hatch, just a daily beater, nothin speacial



1984 RX-7 GSL-SE: damn near perfect condition except the motor, low compression on the rear rotor, wouldnt run for more then 4 hour's of driveing then would shut off



1989 Honda accord LX-i: just another daily beater



1972 datsun 510 Turbo: this was my baby, L-16, bored out, ported and polished, tons of head work, A87 peanut head, turbo boostin 12 psi, water injection, dual plate racing clutch, traded for RX-7 convertable



1990 RX-7 Convertable: traded the 510 for this, had a mild street port and brembo rotors, basicly it, just another daily beater but i loved droppin the top ^_^



1972 datsun 510 Turbo: got this back for the vert and then popped the turbo and burnt a valve, Traded for an MR2



1986 MR2: this was a fun car, 2.2 Litre N/A motor swap from a 1991 MR2, hauled pretty good for an N/A but it wasnt enough for me, traded for a talon



1990 Eagle Talon Turbo: basicly another daily beater, except this one ended up boosting 21 psi, made the clutch explode, busted an axle, the wheel fell off, basicly a money pit, sold it for current car



1974 Datsun 260Z: my new baby, a 350 small block mated to a Turbo350 tranny, needs some work but almost done



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



then i've had a few trucks, a 300ZX and something else i forgot

(deep breath)



In order.....

1. 66 Mustang; this car did every type of motorsport you can imagine at some point, best 1/4, 12.30@119.

2. 49 Ford Deluxe V-8 convertible; mad Flathead pimp sled.

3. 64 Chevy SWB; nothing special, but sounded good at the time.

4. 69 Camaro; stripped down drag race car, 427 BB, 10.51@128.

5. 72 Monte Carlo; 454, oval track car, I got over it pretty soon.

6. 79 Chevy K-5 Blazer, pretty boring, got totalled in a flip over wreck, insurance paid about quadruple what I paid for it.

7. 69 Olds Cutlass, Hurst/Olds replica, 455, 13.51@104

8. 79 K-5 Blazer, yes another one, purchased for less than the insurance settlement on the first one, 400 SB, managed a 14.5 even with 32in Mud-Terrains, sold at a huge loss due to blown up everything.

9. 65 Pontiac GTO; too beaten up to be worth restoring, but ran ok.

10. 58 Cadillac Series 62 two door; pristine but still a daily driver if you can imagine that, disgustingly cool, I had sex in this car more than the rest combined.

11. 84 Chevy Suburban; nothing to say about this POS.

12. 51 Ford two door; again, mad whack old school style, 327 Chevy SB, body completely shaved, DeSoto grill, red and black interior, flames down the side, functional lake pipes, 13.9 in the 1/4.

13. 95 Lincoln Town Car; I bought this with the intent of putting the Ford 460 truck engine in and having the ultimate sleeper, instead, I got gray hair, voted Republican, ate mozza *****, shopped at Sam's Club and retired to Florida.

14. 00 Lincoln LS; this is more like it, V-8, rear wheel drive, midsize sport sedan, aww yeah, until I blew a motor at 17K miles and again at 80k miles, sold for peanuts, horrible depreciation on that one.

15. 02 Ford Lightning; fastest damned truck ever, still daily this one, 13.7 in the 1/4.

16. 93 RX-7; T04R, full fuel, full suspension, gutted interior, basically a GT car with a license plate, 11.2@130.

17. 01 Audi S4; supposed to be the new daily driver but I couldn't bring myself to part with the truck, leased to my roommate for the rest of this year, hopefully I can afford to keep both this and the truck by the time she's ready to return it, 13.98@98 with a good tail wind.

88 Nissan 200sx (first car, S12 silvia, spent a year and a half in HS getting it running/driving well, drove it for about 3 months until someone merged into me, totalling it)



88 Saab 900 (solid car, slow with tons of oversteer, infact it oversteered right off the road into a telephone pole, totalled)



88 RX7 vert (currently in storage in my parents garage as I live in Manhattan on the lower east side and dont really need it/want it to get fucked up or stolen)



I seem to like the year 1988

1985 Honda Accord. They didnt make a shittier looking or more reliable car.



1988 Base Rx7. Double the power of the aforementioned POS. Half the reliability. Twice the fun. Got fucked over on repairs. Sold to kid for too much money.



1993 R1 Rx7. I'm in love with the car, but I'm at the event horizon of falling into a money black hole with the thing. But I love her.
