Wow - my list of previous cars can be depressing. Anyway, a decent chronolgy goes like this:
1988 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible (wrecked it)
1988 Nissan Sentra (hated it)
1984 Camaro Z28 (POS that leaked water like a faucet - but loved it)
1984 Plymouth Voyager (owned for exactly 5 days before the timing belt snapped - like flushing money down a toilet
)
1989 Plymouth Grand Voyager - that had a frigging mind of it's own - work vehicle.
1979 Olds Cutlass Cruiser Wagon (with 1985 Trans-Am wheels & tires that rubbed like crazy - $300 work vehicle)
1984 Olds Cutlass Cruiser Wagon (another $300 work car)
1990 Plymouth Horizon (yet another $300 work car)
1993 Mazda Miata (zoom-zoom, baby! - still had the Horizon for work)
2002 Protege5 (and still zooooming - serves work and play!)
In between, I had this 1979 Camaro for almost 4 years:
It was off the road nearly every winter, and I'd re-register it for summer fun. 305 V8, 4 speed stick! (pretty rare for these cars in that time - was like shifting a truck, but still fun), T-tops (no-leak originals), repainted original silver, new chrome just about everywhere, centerline knock-offs, fakie dual exhaust with 98 Bonneville cast oval tips, 1969 script "Camaro" badges, Kenwood CD & changer, MTX amp & JBL tube in the trunk, new interior carpet, door sills, Grant leather steering wheel, & new windshield. Car ran like a champ - would do 100 in third gear with another to grab. And, oh yeah - the license plates read "HIHOSLVA" (yep - that's where it comes from). *Sniff* - I still miss that car.
