What cars do you own/drive?

[Hugh Januss]

I knew it wasn't Willow Springs or Laguna Seca as there is real green grass.
I had a '59 Ghia when I was younger, it was stolen from in front of my house....twice. Yep, got it back the first time after it had been stripped, bought a rusted parts car, put it all back together even nicer than it was before, 1 1/2 years later it was gone again. I guess I was only leasing that one.

As a side note, maintaining a car of a Lambo quality still holds true. 10K per service is not unheard of. Many times a mid engined car requires the drop of the entire engine in order to service.

Lamborghinis are chain driven so no nasty engine out every three years.
when a car is set right, maintenance is minimal.

different brother. different Porsche.[/QUOTE]
wheels need to go back to original. Is this a kit?

i had a Karman Ghia back in the day, that was a blast to drift in the Oakland and Southern California hills. just the smell of the car was fun.

this was my Ghia I sold a few years back. Uh oh, another VW.

2007 Nissan Dualis (I've had it three years so it not a Radioshack LA thing!Although i was thrilled to see them use one)

I too have had a passion for cars for years....ranging from British classics to American Muscle.....these two have both gone now, but the first photo is my fav of all that I've owned...pure badass... I loved that car! The second (Mach 1) took me 7 years to rebuild from a wreck..

funny, because mine was stolen and recovered with a new front end.

It wasn't me I swear, besides I donated to help fight cancer so I have immunity from everything.

Here's the cockpit of my 2.0 914/4

[Hugh Januss]

That is so cool.

 

[Saddlesaw]

Thanks usedtobefast...sorted now (I signed up to photobucket)! So I have added a better shot of the Shelby (they're American Racing BTW)

here they are for those who couldn't be a$$ed before

My backyard with several of my cars in evidence.

914 2.0. This was my favorite car of my dad's when I was young. He had a silver 73 that was beautiful. I know it isn't a classic, and only a step above the 914's with VW motors, but I love them. He owned several others, 912, 911 Targa, etc, but that one was always my favorite.

As we discussed before though, he also had MGB's, Spitfire's and the like. For some reason, those are the only ones he ever let us drive much.

this is all starting to make sense

 

[ChrisE]

OK, Topcarbon. I've done some sleuthing around and uncovered your real weekend car. The gig is up.

 

[pedaling squares]

Congrats Saddlesaw, those are real beauts. The Shelby is gorgeous.

The van is just to score women. The culture is different here in Mexico. My handy man has been very concerned that I do no have a girlfriend here in Mexico. So I told him to find me a brunette, smallish breasts,big **** and blue eyes' He did. problem is she is 15 years old. But the age of consent in Baja is 14. If you want a younger girlfriend they just need to be more than 50kgs. Hence the free candy

dude, that was my secret. Well, ChrisE, you are right.

Now that you know what I really drive, lets see yours.

I posted it on the previous page. At least I am posting my legitimate car, unlike you with your snot green lambo.

I like you ChrisE but if it was you. would you post a pic of a snot green Lambo?
I would pick a much different pic if I was lying

okay mr. Daly esq.

Its okay, you can disbelieve all you want. You see, when you go to garage, and you put the keys in whatever you drive, it will be completely believable.

I will go to my garage, put the keys in the Diablo, and you will think its completely unbelievable. In the end, it wont matter.

As far as the snot green paint, it came from the factory special ordered by Malcolm Forbes.

I had a yellow one before this one, btw.

Well, that explains it. He is as nutty as his wingnut mouth-breathing son.

No, I don't believe you because as I said to TFF somebody that owns a car like that is secure enough to not brag about it.

Top, I confess that I don't know anything about Lambo's really but see that they were released (to the public) in Late Jan 1990. Forbes died in Late Feb 1990 so did he ever take ownership or was it a case of ordered but not delivered? It must be a really early production number?
