List all the cars you've had

Reply #30
I'm 23 and my list is as follows:
1984 Mercury Cougar GS 5.0 - It's in my signature(1st car, part of the family before I was born, I will be buried in it. It was my Uncles, there's a huge story to why this car is special to me.)
1986 Mercury Cougar LS 5.0 - Previous owner abused it, and I sold it due to 3 broken fuel injectors, tranny slip, and poor condition of car.
2003 Ford Escape - Blown Transmission(traded and made double what I paid with blown tranny)
1998 GMC Sonoma ZQ8 4.3L 5-speed. I sold it to buy a Grand Am. One of very few ext. cab, stepside with drivetrain. Loved that truck.
2004 Grand Am SC/T - I put sooo much money in that car for mods. Nebraska State Patrol caused my brakes to fail and I totalled it and nearly died.
2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee - My daily Driver. I absolutely hate this thing. 3.7L is doggy and gets horrible mileage. I've been trying to trade it for months.

Cars I have sitting: 1953 Chevy 210 Sedan - My Dad's first car, and our Father/Son project. I6/3 on the tree, gonna have a big block, beefy blower, and a birdcatcher. His goal is to drive it down the main street of a town, flip the switch on the cutouts and blow out windows when he revs it. I have a few plans for this thing.
1955 Willys Sedan - My Grandfather bought at an auction, restored by a Tech School kid, someday I will get to it. I6/3 on the tree

20 years old
1) 1988 Thunderbird 3.8l bought at 15, swapped motors at 18 to a 5.0, traded in in 2011 for a 3.8l
2)1987 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe. Bought to drive while the motor in the 88 was being swapped.
3)1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass 442. Was was restored around 1999, don't drive it, but I bought a garage for her to sit in until I decide what I'm going to do.
4)2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe Track Pack. Paid cash at 20 years old for a $27K car. It's scary a 3.8l can now put out 316 HP, when my v8 Thunderbird wouldn't put out 160. But I do miss the thunderbird, I was my grandmothers, and I wanted to keep it, but it just wasn't worth it. Needed a lot of stuff to make it right. Dealer gave me $500 for it, which is probably right about what I have put into it(financially) since 2005.

As a testament to my boredom I've actually made a collage of all the cars I've owned (as listed above). Cars in this collage with a "G" indicate I've no pictures and swiped 'em off Google. Most of these were owned before digital cameras and I was either too poor (in the case of the cool ones) or too cheap (in the case of the shiznitboxes - not gonna waste valuable film on those) to take pictures. You'll also note a couple of vehicles showed up more than once (the '90 Nissan truck and the '91 T-Bird) - that's because I owned those vehicles more than once

The "G" pics are pretty accurate, except my '66 Galaxie was a hard top (the one pictured is a post) and my '89 Sentra Wagon was dark grey, not the cream colour shown here. Oh, and the Tempo should have a "G".  Everything else is pretty much spot-on...

Started with an 82 Buick riviera (Died from ohio rust) Not my car just a generic pic. It was actually a  fine riding car.




That was replaced with an 87 Ford escort(I wasn't too happy about the switch :giggle:  another generic pic.



then got my step dad's 92 Ranger, probably one of the most reliable Trucks.
Also the first thing I took down the 1/2 mile :D


After moving to Vegas from Ohio, picked up an 87 LX notch, which I wish I would have never sold!


After awhile started having issues with it, and really didn't realize how easy they were to work on yet, and got the dumb Idea to go buy an 01 Bullitt at the age of 20 ($500 a month for car and $300 insurance) :crazy:



Then sold the ranger and got an 83 GLX vert


After awhile Decided I wanted a truck again, and bought an 02 Ranger tremor.


After my dad's ranger got totaled by a cat bus, gave him the ranger, and started DD the vert, but it had a bad heater core, and wasn't really ready for DD duty so picked up an 05 Focus ST, which was a fun car, but got totaled by a run away tire and rim before it even had plates!


After the Focus was totaled, I ended up putting some money into the 83 to make it drivable. Picked up a 92 SHO and drove for awhile, but it was not maintained properly before I got and got rod knock, and really did not want to fix it at that time. Got a whole $500 trade in when Trading in the Ranger on an 05 F150 :giggle:

After all this picked up the 86GT from a friend for $1500, was bone stock too!
Which has seen a few upgrades


After driving this for quite awhile, decided I needed something more easy on gas to DD, not that I could have spent a car payment worth of gas in the stang anyways!

06 Fusion.



And just recently decided to get rid of car payment so Fusion got sold, and replaced with the TC.



And I think thats it LOL

#1 86 cougar GS. From 235k to 297k in three years. Stripper model with a 5.0 and digi dash
#2 86 cougar LS. From 110k to about 125k. Step mom junked it.
#3 87 cougar v-6. 181k to 186k. Wish I wasn't dumb with this car. Bad waterpump.
#4 87 cougar v-6. ?k. Hated car. New engine bad tranny. Junked.
#5 87 thunderbird base. Another stripper minus power windows. Blown engine and tranny. Swapped engine. Swapped tranny out of v-6 cougar and blew up in 10 miles.
#6 87 thunderbird LX. From 135k to 180k in two years. Drove the  out of it. Fully loaded w/ digi dash and ATC. Hated car. Bought to swap tranny into previous #7 87 bird and ran out of time. 200 mile commute 6 days a week and averaged 25-28mpg . Junked march of this year. First wreck. First set of new tires and first abandoned running car.
#8 88 country squire. 125k to 135k. Was the wifes grocery getter.

Cars I drove but not owned
98 dodge neon. Married into. Worst car in the world. Less then 10k in 5 years and more money then every car put together. Blew the head gasket 3 times before junked engine block.

I guess I am not very inventive. The crown vic was an alternitive to the wife wanting a civic with 300k on it. Only time I have ever owned a 4 door. Wish there was more room. Not very comfy as I am 6'4" tall.

Looking to buy one more 86 cougar to swap my motor and t-5 into. Hopefully a stripper model.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
Hooligans! 
1988 Crown Vic wagon. 120K California car. Wifes grocery getter. (junked)
1987 Ford Thunderbird LX. 5.0. s.o., sn-95 t-5 and an f-150 clutch. Driven daily and going strong.
