Haven't seen a thread like this before on here.. (in the last whopping month I've been on the board!)

Our daily driver, a 1992 Acura Integra LS:


A 2nd daily drive/future project car we drove to Indiana to get, our 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT:


My baby, currently going under a drivetrain swap, my 1984 Camaro Z28:


The fiance's baby, awaiting a drivetrain swap as well, his 1986 Monte Carlo SS:


His Monte Carlo's engine blew in 2005 and it's been sitting there since. My car's engine was taken out in 2006 to start the swap, and with working so much it's taken awhile! My brother has my old engine now. Yeah, the fiance & I are car people. Its how we met, actually!

In the background: The new Jeep is his mom's and the blue truck is his dad's (well, was his mom's until she got the Jeep!)

RIP my 91 Camaro. The transmission and engine went out in it. Could not afford the repairs so sold it. I miss it:


And we traded this for our boat:

Nice, another Camaro
I had an 86 Camaro also, but it ended up as recycled steel 5 years after I got it. Too rusty and the engine went out one day randomly.

This is DH's project. He's restoring a Iroc Z. He's going to put a 383 stroker in it. A least I think he is, he changes his mind a lot.

My biological sister and maid of honor for our wedding's beautiful blue Mustang GT on our wedding day. She surprised us, well mostly my husband, by letting us use it for the day. My husband LOVES her car! She was in an accident 3 days later from behind. She was fine and since it clearly wasn't her fault so she didn't have to pay for repairs. It's fixed now but I swear my husband was about to cry when he heard the news.



Our car isn't a pretty picture... It's a '93 Saturn SL1 that sounds like it's falling apart. Something is grinding near the front right wheel. You can feel and definetely hear it when it's at a halt and sometimes driving. Going over a bump makes it temporarily stop though which is weird. We're broke at the moment so we can't afford for someone to look at it. I don't want to drive it because the transmission seems like it's about to go and it has a really hard time shifting from reverse and back, especially on an incline. Last thing we need is that going out on us now...
I'm too nervous to use it because I swear I'm jinxed to breaking things!

Enough rambling...

OMG, my husband loves your car! Mostly because that car was featured as Bumblebee in Transformers but he loves hot rods like that. He knows what cars are good for tuning up because... well, he was a racer in high school.

We have quite a few, LOL. Unfortunately some are sitting in the weeds at the moment, the project cars don't get as much attention as they should.

1973 Volkswagen van



1969 Volkswagen Karmann Ghia



1948 Chevrolet



1983 Ford Ranger



1955 Ford F700



1966 Mustang



And the Beetles... the one in front is my "baby" - a 1975 Super Beetle. The one in the back is a 1971 Super Convertible.



We also have a 1997 Mustang but John's dad drove it to the doctor so I couldn't get a pic yet.

I have two cars... I have a 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer OZ Rally (hate it) and I have a 1999 Honda Prelude (which needs a new engine). I dont have a scanner to put the exact pic of my Lude but Ill post a pic that looks just like it (the lancer pic is my actual car)...

Lancer:


Prelude:
(This is the color of mine... this one is missing the spoiler)
(This is the body style of mine, but mine is red)...

Anyone wanna donate like 6k so I can convert my lude to a stick (its tiptronic autostick) and do an engine swap... Its been sittin in my moms garage for 2 years, covered in dust, and tagged with finger print graffiti.

The new love of his life...

Some nice cars there!


bnwalker - thats a lot of cars!! Is that a red 2nd gen F-body I see in the background of one of the pics? We used to have 14 cars at our house, now we're down to our 4 and Rob's parent's cars + 1 junk car leftover. It has til February before its brought to the scrap yard for $175 (profit! Rob got it for $125 in 2004).

Woo, StacyD, I'm glad someone likes my car
I cant wait until its done. I miss it
It's going to be so much fun to drive with a LS1 and a 6 speed transmission

My wheels! I, too, love my car. My next one, however, will be the 2009 Camaro. *grin*

I completely forgot about the Corvettes!
The red car is a 1984 Vette and in front of it is a 1978 Corvette. We also have a GEO tracker on blocks (daily driver, needs brakes finished), and Johns parents have an F-350, and his grandparents have a 2001 LeSabre... and his brother has an '86 Firebird.

We are down to very few now... we had 15 at one time (NOT counting the Vettes, Firebird, Tracker, Buick and F-350. And we just sold a '70 Beetle on Sunday.
