'73 Opel GT (Ground Up Resto)
'72 Opel GT (used for parts)
College Years:
'95 Eagle Talon (DD through College)
'69 Opel GT (Parts)
'70 Opel GT (Parts)
'71 Opel GT (Driven weekends)
'69 Opel GT (Parts)
'71 Opel GT (Drove and Restored)

I plan on selling the Yukon and Corvette to buy a Diesel Excursion or Diesel Pickup to pull my box trailer. I am also still looking for an Opel GT with a nice body to swap in the 1.1L (55+ MPG) motor that I have in the garage.

1993 Camry V-6 LE. THE nicest riding car i've ever owned
1984 Tercel. bought for 350. drove to work to keep miles of Camry. didn't lots of HARD driving. sold for 300 the engine blow 1 month later. I warned them i loved to idle higher and higher
2000 Pontiac Grand Prix. to say it nicely WORSE CAR EVER. problems from day one to day i sold it. should have never sold the Camry. will not be another american made car again
1997 Tercel. it's Black Hawk the one i drive and is featured in my garage.
And a Pontiac Vibe (don't say it, it's not an american car, it's a Toyota Matrix with a different badge on the front. which in turn is a Toyota Corolla) we love the car good space good mpg. my wife drives it since she lives really close to work. keeping the miles off it.
