Qdub,

Sorry to hear about your little brother.

Thank you for your service!


I don't have pics of every car that I've ever owned, but I've got a few. I only became a licensed driver in 2002 at 16.

My very 1st car, 1983 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, given to me by my dad; took this pic the week before it was stolen in 2005.

Got a '93 Nissan Pathfinder from my mom for my 16th birthday in 2002, and got a '93 Nissan Maxima from my grandma for graduating HS in 2004. (No pics)

After my first Cutlass was stolen in November 2005, I set out to replace it. In February 2006, I got a 2 for 1 deal ($250 for both) on eBay from a guy in Palatka, FL. I picked an '83 & '85 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. Those were the 1st cars that I ever bought with my own money. (Sold the '85 as a roller in 2013)

In 2007, after getting a full time job at AFLAC WWHQ, I decided to treat myself and for my 21st birthday I bought myself a '94 Chevrolet Impala SS. (Sold in 2010)

A few months later, after hearing so much about the 9C1s w/LT1s I had to have one, so I bought a '96 Chevrolet Caprice 9C1.

2007 is where LIFE began for me. I moved out of my mom's house and got married to my high school sweetheart. In 2008, I dropped out of college and quit my great job at AFLAC to join the US Army. In 2009, I spent nearly the entire year in training for the Army, my wife and I conceived out first child, and my little brother died 2 weeks before Christmas. To be continued.....

Q-dub, welcome back to the world! I can't believe how many cool cars you have had. I think I like the '95 Camaro best. You WILL hate working on the LT-1 though.

I've love the 2nd Gen LT1s; this is my 5th one. I have another LT1 sitting on a engine stand.

My Daughter has a '95 Firebird Formula LT-1. I considered hiring a midget just to change the spark plugs!

also had a fascination with caprice 9C1 (police package) cars
my 92 "Moby"

rode in my buddies LT1 powered 94 and got the itch... my 95 "9c1SS" only purple car I've ever liked... really miss that thing


my regal, back when it wa still driveable, and the "might as well do this while I'm in here" bug hadn't bitten me yet...

my old '79

it may be because I used to work on these at the dealership, but I've always liked the old rear wheel drive volvos.. "cinderblock", and "wonderbread"



I'm like a few of you, and don't take alot of "selfies", but have been known to have a time or two... here's one on a rental car fleet that I used to service...


Q-dub, was it you and your dad that used to go on the NAISSO site? I used to be on there a loooong time ago with my 2 9c1 Cappies.... screen name was gr8twhitewhale...

I was on there when I bought my '94 Impala SS back in '07. I think I bought the window rollers repair kit on there. My dad doesn't even like to text, so he definitely isn't on any forums.

Wal-Mart or Walgreens and a flash drive, then you'll have digital copies.
