The Cars I've Owned Since 1979

(Over 30 and counting )

FACTS

 

MOST HORSEPOWER/OVERALL FASTEST :

 

1975 Chevy Monza, possibly close to 400HP with engine enhancements. The motor came

out of a wrecked 1970 Corvette Stingray and put in the car by a Marine Captain who was

a F4 Phantom pilot.

(websites about V8 Monzas )

 

MOST FUN:

 

No question, Porsche 928, drive one, you'll know why!

(websites about Porsche 928's )

 

MOST PROBLEMS:

 

No question, Porsche 928, own one, you'll know why!

Honorable mention: BMW 735il

 

MOST TICKETS:

 

No question, Porsche 928, (see MOST FUN)

 

MOST GOODIES:

 

Believe it or not, Ford Explorer XLT (custom ordered)

 

MOST EXPENSIVE: (Purchase price):

 

Ford Explorer XLT, (See MOST GOODIES)

 

LEAST EXPENSIVE:

 

VW Squareback, $400, bought it from a mechanic who took possession of it after a customer didn't pay him

$400 in repairs done to it.

(pictures of really nice squarebacks )

 

New leader: Isuzu Amigo, bought from our church (donated) $200!  Okay, so this unit didn't work out so well.

The gas mileage was awful and the parts expensive.  Sold it.

 

MOST MILES DRIVEN:

 

Porsche 928, lived in South Carolina for awhile, went home to Virginia Beach on weekends, to see girlfriend,

now wife. I put thousands of miles on it every month, for many months, then moved to Culpeper and

went to Virginia Beach on weekends. This cost me a fortune in gas, eventually tickets and eventually my insurance.

(she was worth every penny...my wife!)

 

VANITY PLATES:

 

GOT GHZ - Acura (my pick, okay so Ghz processors had just come out, nobody got it, decommsioned)

 

HER GUMP - 86 Nissan (my pick, as in Forrest Gump, I'm my wifes Gump, decommsioned)

 

SNOW CAT - 91 Jag (her pick, decommsioned)

 

FERRAL - 91 Jag (her pick, FERAL was taken, also name of her favorite cat, and play on what a Jaguar is)

 

PLAY TOY - 84 Bronco (her pick, go figure)

 

WANTD IT - 94 Jag (her pick, should have been the plates for every other car...)
