'89 Ford Escort that belonged to my grandmother. She literally gave it to me when she got her Mazda Protege. Twas 'Old Lady Beige' as I've termed it, both interior and exterior. I loved her for the awesome gas mileage (4 banger) and the immense amount of trunk space. Could fit a 27" TV with box without any problems.
Alas, the day came when she met her demise. I t-boned a Jeep Grand Cherokee that made a left turn out in front of me at the last minute. She'* the reason I now own a Bonneville.
God rest that gas-lovin' soul!

My old T-bird super coupe. A proud vessel with only 73,000 miles on it. Still regret it that I sold it.

My first was a 1990 Chrysler New Yorker:


It had some sweet hubcaps, green headlights, green neons inside, and no floor.


Then i had a 1983 Chevy Scottsdale


Right Now a 1992 GMC Jimmy, until spring then the bonneville comes back.

After

(worse than it looked)

airbags deployed, radiator was pushed into engine, everything was in basically

bought for $800 on Feb. 2nd, Died Feb. 5th (2006)

Third car; The newest obsession

Didn't really like the 'Scort.

I was in love with my 'burban, only thing i didn't like on her was the 5 MPG average
