I had the Buick version of the Nova--I think they called it the Apollo. Also had a 350 2 bbl. I never tried to lay rubber with it, tho  |

My current. 98 Tacoma reg. cab no power windows no power locks etc. . 145,000 miles. As "Plain Jane" as it gets. Only luxury it has is A.C. and it actually works (first vehicle I have even owned with working A.C.!!!) 4 Cyl & 4WD. I bought it at the end of summer in 95. The goal is to drive to 200,000 miles or death. Same goal I had with my Corolla which I sold at 204,000 and word has it she's still on the road now....a year and a half later.

yup, manual. I set it at 200,000 OR until it dies (which I am sure will be more). I figure at 200,000 I will be getting MORE than my money's worth and will be happy with that!   |

My 72 chevelle with a 454. It is awaiting funding for body and paint. What's nice is that I get to drive it year round down here. Until 3 years ago it was my daily driver.

"59" Willys
I did over a 1959 Willys and put a 350 in it and jacked up the motor. Never changed the steering box so I never drove it. Sold the engine for good money and the jeep itself for pretty good money. I think I would have killed myself in it. Tooling around the yard and the street with a repair plate on it was a wild experience.

bassbabe, your dad probably bit his lip because it happened right in front of your house and the guy knew where you lived.
