This was the car I would love to have back. 1951 Merc 4 door sedan. Suicide doors, flat head V-8, probably around 190 hp. A friend of mine had her and I told him if ever he deceided to sell her to give me a call. Well, my prayers were answered he called out of the blue and he would take a grand for it, I said sold. But all the fun toys come and go and this is one I wish I still had.

This one! '65 model. These were called "The Magnificent Brute" and "Poor Man's Jaguar". Got it new in last year of college...BABE MAGNET! Big 6 cyl, multi-carbs, ran like a bat outta Hell and sounded like a pissed-off panther.

Mine was British Racing Green, Tan interior, with the British Union Jack decal on the rear...Sweet!
I'd give my left whatever for another one, and one of these too!


With the J-2 engine...371 ci, 3 carbs!
I learned to drive in a '57 98 Holiday Hardtop with the J-2...whatta car!

OK, and one of these...while you're buyin':

'61 Olds Starfire. 394 High Compression...hauler!
A buddy's parents had one. They wouldn't let him even drive it, but they let ME borrow it regularly...drove my pal nuts!

Ahhhhh, memories.

I don't have one yet, but my first one'll be a 03 ford f-350 King Ranch superduty, extended cab, dualie. What a gas guzzler, but she'll be sweet. She'll be black hopefully.

My first car was a '69 vette. I had it for four years before I got wasted and
like an idiot totaled it. Do NOT drink and drive. I wasn't hurt and neither
was the semi trailer I slid into. Kids don't do this!
That car would have been worth about 45,000.00 today. I paid 5000.00 in 1978 When I was 18.
It was black with red pearl similar to this one.

1979 Pontiac Trans AM. Dark Brown, t-tops, special edition with a 403 Olds engine. Man would that thing haul A$$. Blew the motor(rod through the block ouch) racing on the highway going 120mph. The oil hit the back tires, and almost cost me dearly. Got her over to the side, and the oil was dripping onto the exhaust and started burning. And being a genius I climbed under it and put it out with a towel. New moter 400, and it was never the same car. Man I loved that car.

either my civic that was set up for solo 1 type racing and autocrossing. That thing would destroy 911's, vettes, etc. at the autocrosses, course they'd kill me on a solo 1 track since hp plays a bigger role there than an autocross. or my jeep.

A 1972 SS Chevelle w/396. Gold w/black stripes down the hood and trunk. Got several tickets, lost my liscense for a month. Finally fell asleep and totalled the thing in 1980. Bought this car from a gal who didn't know what she had. It was no big deal then,(kinda like baseball cards of 1972).

The best car I ever had was a 67' Ford Galaxy with a 390 under the hood. Solid white with a faded and torn blue interior....Had some sweet times in that car. It was involved in many a first for me, took me to my first job, got my first ticket with it.....got alot of tickets with it, that one for 99 in a 55 burned though.
But it took my 78 Thunder chicken to get me in my first and (knocking on wood) last wreck. But the t-bird was cool too, while it lasted.

These are my current cars. They all drive but some need more work than others. I think that the old Scirocco has the potential to be the coolest car so far. I did love the Jeep I had when I was younger, but apples to oranges.
