Cars and motorcycles have been a lifetime obsession. Self taught mechanic, started by taking apart lawnmowers, by age of 16 working on my own cars and motorcycles. I've probably owned over a hundred cars over the years, some of the more interesting were 1969 Camaro Z28, 1969 Dodge Charger 440ci, 1973 Plymouth Roadrunner which I dropped a 440ci six pak into. Mopars great engines, strictly straight line cars, Z28 nice all around car. Many Pontiacs, always GTO's and Lemans Sports. A few Volvo's, unique personalities and great build quality. Always into British cars as well, many MGB's, TR6, always lusted after an XKE. Also, British car people the greatest, always good times at local meets. Lucas electronics are their achilles heel, modern replacement electronics make these cars very reliable. Also, many big bore sport bikes over the years, supercar performance at reasonable cash outlay.
Presently own 2000 Toyota 4runner, can't beat Japanese reliability, I've seen these with over 500,000 miles on them. 1970 MGB GT, 62,000 mile Hawaiian car, classic British sports cars make you feel like a driving hero even when you're barely keeping up with modern traffic! 2011 Mustang GT, modded to be more sports car than straight line car. Coyote engine is world class, just wish it had more of the chassis dynamics of recently sold 1989 BMW e30 325ix. KTM RC390, my little pocket rocket, amazing handling, sort of like classic British sports cars in that you feel like a hero while going at sane speeds, something the big bore sports bikes don't allow.
