I've had around 300 different cars and trucks(owned a few more than once), most were bought just to make a proffit. I have a list in a notebook somewhere, it was posted on the old board but fell victim of the 20 page limit.... :flip: you easyboard.

To let you know I ain't kiddin, back in the late '80s I bought 10 in one day from the local Pontiac wholesale lot. Have owned '57, '58, '62, '64(four), '66, '67, '69 and '70 Fords, least a dozen(total) '68-'69 Torinos/Fairlanes/Rancheros, as well as that many Chevettes, Fairmonts, and 15 '86-'88 Thunderbirds(12 Turbo Coupes & three 5.0s). Hell I've had a '70 Chevelle and Impala(also a '72), '76 Olds wagon with a 455, a '76 Firebird 455, '79 Camaro, two Diesel Olds, a Buick Regal, Pontiac Le Mans & Phoenix, Monte Carlo, a Vega, four Malibus, 5-6 Monzas(two were V8s), Sunbird, Datsuns, Toyotas, Le Barons, a Challenger, even a Yugo and a gay little Renault LeCar(Bet most of you don't even know what one looks like. And unless you can find a pic on the web, you still ain't gonna know cause I sure didn't take any pictures of it

).... Back in the Ford camp there were 6-7 '74-'78 Mustang IIs and that many '79-'88 Mustangs, three '79-'81 Capris, half dozen Grenadas/Monarchs, Galaxies, Maverick, Escorts, a Pinto and Falcon or two.

I've never owned any Ford with a 3.8....(but have owned some 231 Buick 3.8s in Monzas, Cutlasses, & Regals. Also some Chevy 229 3.8s)

I came very close to owning a 5-speed '95 Supercoupe (extremely rare), but the deal fell through.
