Let's in ascending order.... 60 something shortned VW Floorpan with wheels and a roll cage and a 1600 Dual Port. Talk about quick. (1st "car" at 13 yrs old. Drove the wheels off (literally a couple of times) over two years) 75 Buick Regal High school car - 350 cu.in. engine - need I say more... 75 Super Beetle (Nice Custom - will have to post some of the pictures) 70 Convertible Bug (still have most of the pieces for this one. 1st crankshaft up engine build) 72 Super Beetle (beater grad school car - but made the 1500 mile one way trip to MN a half a dozen times) 89 Chevy S10 Pick-up 1st new "car" as a college grad 89 Honda Civic Hatch traded-in the 8 month old S10 for this one after our dog jumped out of the box at 60 mph. Long story, but the dog survived. Rear-ended and totaled in Boston, MA 69 Beetle Brought home my first born in this one..... 68 Beetle Project that never got going 91 Honda Civic 4 Door Growing family needs better car with more doors... 71 Fastback FI Auto (1st time around with my current car) Thought it was too nice to fall subject to my DARK SIDE tendencies. It only had 36kmiles "original" on it this time... 92 Mercury Sable Wagon ---------------| 93 Mercury Villager Van | 95 Mercury Tracer LTS |--Obviously my Ford years 96 Mercury Mystique | 98 Mercury Villager Van (current van)---| 71 VW Fastback FI Auto (current project - repurchased) Now with 68k on the odometer adn 3 years worth of NY state rust. Aaaahhhh - now it is ready for the DARK SIDE knife. 83 Mercury Lynx (beater winter work car for these long, salty Minnesota winters - the price was right - FREE) I count 18 cars in 21 years.....not counting my parents cars that I drove while in high school and the cars I borrowed regularly while in college including a street-legal,race-prepped 83 Pontiac Trans Am that is still the fastest, best handling car I have driven. That's my rundown. It has been really interesting reading about the car histories of each of us. Let's hear from the rest. John Jaranson 71 FI Auto Fasty ( I should have never let her go...but am glad she is back) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
