First car was an '88 Chevy Cavalier Z24 Convertible with a 2.8L. Paid nothing for it other than what I put in to it to keep it running, got it when my dad passed away. Fun car, but only lasted me 7 months because I drove it a little harder than it could handle. Now I have my 2nd vehicle, '98 Ford Ranger.

95 dakota slt ext. cab, short box. had the gutless 3.9 and a 5 speed. bedliner, visor, kenwood & kicker inside. took 2 nice accidents with it to finally total it. first one i replace the grille and a headlight after totaling a honda accord with it:devil: second time i t-boned some a-hole in an s-10 who pulled out of his driveway as i was cruising by at about 55:eek2:
ended up getting more from my insurance company than i paid for the truck 2 years before.

then i went and bought my 93 dodge 150. 4'' superlift, 33's, fiberglass bedcover, lund steps and moonvisor. dual magnaflow exhaust. currently sitting out by the garage til i figure out what to do with the tranny.

now driving an 86 chevy 3/4 ton pickup. has a new 350 and clutch mated to a 4-speed tranny. havent checked the gears in it, but i could pull a house down with it:huh

I thought it had a 283 in it? A 400 sbc with a shot of nitrous wouldnt survive with a " 2400 " stall..

blasterfreak99
02-05-2007, 08:06 PM
right now it does. we are putting in the 400 as soon as we get pistons and rods. i will probably get a bigger stall. i won't be launching it on nitrous only once i get going.

With some good axles, and the right suspension tweaking, you could probably get away with spraying it from the hole.. the U-joints might not like it.. but they're cheap and easy to replace:devil:

05-24-2010, 08:48 PM
I'll find some pictures. Picked it up for a car to hold me over while car shopping lol. Bought it for $850. Put maybe $75 into it, sold it for $2500. Wish I still had it because it was cheap, payed off, everything worked and the interior was flawless and I need something while building my car that I have now. I havent driven my car in 3 or 4 months now :( And now when I finally get it on the road I wont have AC or PS. Not only do I have to sweat in traffic but I have to sweat to turn the damn thing while parking lol.

first car was a 55 chevy 210. dumped a lincoln 460 into it and did a tilt nose. I was 15 and sold it before I had my drivers license. Only drive it a few times in my dads shop parkinglot. Picked up a 1949 Chevy 2 dr Fast back. Had it till I was 17 and traded it for a 66 Chevelle. That was in 1987 way before digi cams. Hell, I didnt even have a pager back then. Since I have had 15-17 Chevelles, just as many Camaros, a couple of 50s ford cars, a 68 firebird, a 70 Challenger, 70 cuda and a 71 Charger. 97 Camaro SS a few late model trucks, a full custom 60 pontiac catalina, a full custom 50 ford, 3 model A hotrods and currently have a 24 ford Roadster pickup with a built mid 50s chrysler hemi in it.

as you can tell, I like cars more then quads

92 F250. Well actually it was badged a 150, was a total custom order from ford by my Grandfather. He totaled his 91 and demanded they give him the following: 92 F150 with camper and HD package, beefy tires, stick shift, inline 6, bench seat, 8 lug axles, etc. Hey if you walk into a dealership and pay them gobs of cash from the insurance they will order you anything.

I watched them put the 150 badges on it, was sooo funny cause everytime it needed work or parts we had to get 250 parts. I woulda kept it but it was 2wd and it had an electrical short after I smashed an idiot who stopped in the middle of the road. I sold it after no one could fix the short.

2nd car was a 93 V6 camry, talk about nice it had 100k well cared for miles by my grandma. I drove it for a few years and the trans was going, the struts needed to be replaced in the back and it was burning oil at 180k.

3rd car is my 96 toyota t100 that i got for a good price with a newer engine and stuff and cared for totally by the dealer. Shame I ruined it offroad.

Currently looking for a an F250. I also have a 99 ford taurus I got for free thats kinda beat thats been sitting for a good year. I need to finish the brakes.

i paid 2500 down, and for the title to be transfered, and my first 2 insurance payments. took a loan out from papaw and am paying him back. but mom matched my 2500 for a birthday present thank god, so i got about 2500 to pay for at the moment. which really is just paying back my inheritance. thats all papaws loans are, lol. its his way of buying me things, but making me pay the money back and learning the value of the dollar, even though i would get the money later on. did the same thing with my 450r.

My first truck was a '73 f-100 for like $250 and it was BEAT. It was in the May 3rd tornado here in Oklahoma, which was the strongest recorded tordado in history, but it got me to and from football practice lol.

Then I got a '91 f-250 for $500 at some ladies garage sale. When I told her I would take it she called her husband and told him she sold the truck for $500 and he flipped out lol. He wanted $2,500 for it but she thought he said $500 lol. He went ahead and sold it for $500 because it's what his wife had originally told me. I got lucky on that one. We eventually sold it because it was having some electrical problems that we couldn't figure out.

After that truck I got a '79 f-150 from my girlfriends family. I just had to pay for the title to be changed over because they had no use for the truck and I still have it.

And my most recent purchase is a '88 Jaguar xj6. I bought it from my uncle for $2,500 so I would have something to get me to and from college. It's the smoothest riding car I've ever driven, but it needs a little work.

This is the only pic I have of my car.

it was an 89 s10, spray painted red and blue. front end was about to fall apart, was a 4x4 but the 4x4 didnt work. i remember when i had a tranny leak fixed on it, the guy said when he test drove it he thought the front end was gonna fall apart :eek2:

I had an 85 Jeep CJ-7 that me and my dad rebuilt

traded it for a 99 dodge 1500 4x4, then a 01 Nissan frontier king cab, then an 04 f-150, then a 97 f250 (which i will never sell)

as for secondary cars i bought a 2006 nissan in 08, totalled it due to some moron not having his lights or blinker on in the rain, and about 2 months ago i bought a 2002 jetta TDI with full suspension and rear sway bar.... I love that thing.


my father bought me the jeep i payed the difference of the trade on all the other trucks, and i bought both the cars
