wow, that's a really cool chevelle... as much as I love Gs, the 70 Chevelle is still my dream car. Is that a yenko stripe? I like the wheels. That's the look I wanna go with my rallys.

It's actually a Baldwin-Motion stripe. The rims are 15x8 corvette rallys with the flat bowtie center cap and no trim rings.

Ok..since I'm wasting time...lets see if I can put together "the list" for you...jeeze...hmmm. Will have to dig out the pics...posted ones I could find.

1969 Pontiac Lemans Convertible. Was my Mom's since 1983. Converted to a GTO clone at age 15. Red over parchment, was a 350, dropped in a 400. Was a perfect Goat clone, only the VIN gave it away.
Here is before we "GTO'd" it, around 1989. I need some taller socks and a better bowling shirt...oh and that's Laird next to me in the pic, the guy with the AMC Pacer. Be sure to mention his mullet next time you see him. I've known that guy way too long. Ha!

1983 Chevy Citation CS, 4dr. 2.8 V6 automatic. 4dr. Doo-Doo brown w/New Jersey rust. Taught me a lot!

1968 Buick Skylark Custom 4dr hardtop. Light green over black. 350/powerglide. Awesome tail lights/rear bumper design, sadly was also a Jersey rustbucket. Ran super, no 1/4 panels though....bondo...

1983 Citation X-11 - former documented SCCA road racer. A/C and P/S delete. 4spd w/2.8 HO V6. Fast little car...sadly also a Jersey car so rusty.

1983 Isuzu I-Mark, silver over grey w/rust, 4cyl, 5-spd....was called the Buick/Opel in the 70's. This car was old when new! My high school english teacher gave it to me. POS. Hit a deer and totalled it...God Bless that deer.

1979 Pontiac Bonneville Brougham. Rusty blue over faded blue pillowed seats. Smelled like Grandma died in it. Was nearly free and had a good 350 in it. No shocks to speak of. Gave it away to a friend when I left for college. Got pulled over in Berkley Heights New Jersey once because the car looked so bad in that swanky area. The cop told me to "get my rolling hemmoroid out of his town". Ah the joys of being 17 in New Jersey.


1979 L-82 Corvette. Black over red leather, 4spd, Indy spoiler package. GORGEOUS. Now this is a CAR!
New09007.jpg



1993 S-10 Tahoe pickup. Black on black. 2wd shortbed 4.3 V6 with Camaro-style wheels. Only new vehicle I ever bought to this day, totally reliable and TOUGH. Put over 300K miles on it, gave it to my father and recently traded for Olds Cutlass.
Iroc-S10001.jpg


1993 Olds Cutlass Supreme Convertible. Red over black leather. 3.4 V6. Pretty car but fell apart! SAD!

1984 Olds 98 Regency. 307, burnt orange over red pillowed cloth. Nice big car but dog slow.

1994 Pontiac Grand Prix SE. Black on black, 3.1 V6. Sharp design but ate rear brakes and was not made well.

1987 Olds Ninety-Eight. 3.8 V6, 50K miles. Nice car for a FWD. SOFT seats, SOFT suspension. My brother blew the engine....thanks Dave!

1987 Thunderbird LX Coupe. Wife's car, gold over tan. A TON of miles on it, yellow headlights, dim digital gauges, a/c dead. Sold fast...Fords....ugh


1985 Pontiac Grand Prix LE. Blue over tan. 305 V8, buckets, tach, floor shift, GREAT CAR, miss it.
85GrandPrix1.jpg


1981 Citation X-11. White over black, loaded, 2.8 V6- 4spd. Oklahoma car, no rust. Loved this one and kept it 14 years. My buddy Laird owns it now. Looks good next to his AMC Pacer and VW Beetle!
81X-11Pics013.jpg


1995 Pontiac Bonneville SLE. White over tan leather with gold crosslace wheels. Gorgeous car, first "real" car I bought my wife. Miss it a lot!


1983 Citation 4dr, light tan over white. 2.8 V6 automatic. Made into a 4dr X-11
4drX-11HAHA002.jpg


1983 Citation 4dr, burnt orange, 4cyl, plain and slow but low miles. Fixed up for a friend.
OrangeTationUpdate008.jpg


1978 Silverado 10 pickup. Brown over red. 350 V8. Big 10 model. Super truck, would pass everything but the gas stations.
Silverado.jpg


1983 Citation CS Coupe. VERY CLEAN. 2.8 automatic w/console. LOADED. Sold to a friend in New Jersey.

1969 Pontiac Lemans Convertible Sprint 6. Red over black buckets, but a rust-bucket. Thought I could fix it to remind me of my GTO clone. Was all bondo. Sold it soon after. Needed EVERYTHING. Learned a lesson.
rustyLemans.jpg


1998 Suburban LT 4x4. Huge Maroon gorgeous truck, but gave us problems and didn't keep it long sadly. Was SO sharp looking but something always wrong. Lemon.


1993 Ford Aerostar long-wheelbase van. XL. Looked like a big white dustbuster. Was given to me for free. Body and interior were clean. Transmission shot. Fixed it, was the weakest vehicle I ever owned. Was a 3.0 V6 and could not push it's way through a wet napkin. NO MORE FORDS.
Aerostar.jpg


1983 Bonneville Model G station wagon. Bought to fix for my brother. 3.8 V6, auto. Added Pontiac Rally wheels, blacked out trim outside and Grand Prix trim inside. Nice little wagon for what it was.

1996 Suburban LT. Bright red with silver stripes...conversion truck, fancy, 2wd, red leather, loaded. Great truck, reliable as the sun, but our friends called it the "taco wagon" because the stripes made it look a bit "south of the border". Sadly when I sold it that's exactly where it ended up. Si!
SuburbanPics001.jpg


2003 Suburban LT. Black on grey leather. 2WD, 5.3 Vortec, loaded. WONDERFUL truck. Put 160K miles on it and gave it to my Mom. Still looks nearly new and runs like a watch.
SubBigWheels002.jpg


1996 Pontiac Bonneville SE. Dark green over charcoal leather. Loaded, sunroof, low mile car, but gave me some electrical issues so kept it less than a year.
Corpuspics026.jpg


2002 Pontaic Firebird Convertible. Red over grey. Gorgeous, added Ram Air hood. Gave to my Mom once I realized I was to fat for it. Just recently sold it.
RaceWeekend025.jpg


1997 S-10 extended cab. 2WD, Tahoe, 4.3 w/5-spd. Good little truck. Fun and fast. Gave to my father last year. 160K miles and still running strong.
WaxedS-10001-1.jpg


1989 Olds Custom Cruiser wagon. Gorgeous. Low miles, CLEAN. 307 was a dog but no other complaints. MISS IT!
beacxh1.jpg


1979 Buick Limited Coupe. 403 V8, 50K miles, LOADED. CLEAN.
Buick002.jpg


1986 Caprice Classic sedan. Gold over bronze. Added Chevy Rallys and lots of neat details. Great car all around. The AMC guy Laird ALSO owns this car now too! Ha!
BoxChevyPics004.jpg


1977 Caprice Classic. Yellow and Bronze, 305, was really clean but had been hit in the rear. Got from a co-worker. Refurbished and gave to a friend.
Clean1977CapriceClassic001.jpg


1988 Iroc-Z convertible. RUSTY and purple. Another project that was more than I wanted to tackle once I dove in. Rusty! Sold it after 6-months.
JerseyTrip013.jpg


1995 Park Avenue Ultra. 50K miles. Black over grey leather. About the fanciest car I've had.
NewGrandmaBuick018.jpg


1999 Cadillac Catera Sport. Neat car, 90Kmiles, white over black leather. Despite the bad reputation this was a really nice car. Only sold it when I found the white 73K miles Roadmaster wagon.
Feb6thweekend032.jpg


1996 Roadmaster "GS" wagon. NUFF SAID!
Saturdaynightcarmeet091.jpg


1988 Cutlass Supreme Classic. 307 V8, floor shift, buckets, gauges, t-tops. Always wanted one of these. Not for sale!
88Cutlass001.jpg


1967 GTO Coupe. Plum Mist, 400/400 dual gate. Backet case but she'll be pretty one day!!
TheGoat045.jpg


2001 Grand Prix Sedan, Special Edition Nascar package w/chrome wheels, roof rails, larger spoiler, black on black. Nice ride.
CleanGP033.jpg


And again, as for motorcycles, I've got a really nice old 1982 Yamaha Seca 750, and we still have the bike we learned on, a 1981 Yamaha XS400. We just got into bikes a few years ago. We've bought and sold two Honda Nighthawk 750's, a really nice ST1100 that I regret selling, and a nice vintage '81 Kawasaki KZ750.

No boats, jet-ski's, or airplanes.....yet. ; )

Night all!

Just clarifying... was the question "What else are you tinkering with now?" or "Show me every vehicle you have ever owned?"
