What were you driving 20 years ago?

My 72 GMC, I put 200,000 miles on it in 15 years. It was from coat to coat and every NHRA, IHRA and even a few AHRA nationals. I had the back layed out with a bed, tools and spare parts.

 

1977 Cougar & a 1988 Ranger pickup (first new vehicle I ever owned). No hot rods then, was married ....

 

69 Torino and a 70 Triumph Tiger mc

 

'64 El Camino - '69 Chevelle

 

Same 57 Olds that I drive today. Also had a daily driver that I used for work (40 miles away), if I remember right (mind's getting older by the minute) I think it was my 50 mpg Honda CRX HF. Gas not hybrid or diesel.

 

Haro Sport w/ Peregrine 48 Spoke Rims.

 

I have had this since 78 , sold a 57 vette and bought this when my Daughter was born. It cost me $1,100.00 , everyone thought I paid to much... six of seven motors, five transmissions and three rearends later I still feel I got a good deal. Wish I still had the Vette ...

 

78 Trans Am

 

Hmmmn
1988, I was living in the rain forest and driveing a mud truck.

Kinda like a, uh gasser, but with big 'n' bigs.

 

Great looking car!!

 

1967 Mercury Cougar-390 4-speed-red oxide primer,Cragars,"THUG"license plate,senior in high school.

 

I was only 9 in 1989 so.... I guess I was driving my dad to drinking!

 

I was 9 as well...so my pedal bike...and my folks nuts..haha

 

79 Trans Am 403 olds motor and a 87 gmc s-15.

 

I was driving this one.


And i drive this one today.

 

This, still own it.

 

I just turned 16 so I was driving mostly my Mom's 73 Cutlass Supreme. Dad had put a 455 in it and told everyone it was a 350 including me. I know I used to pick off Camaros at the time with it at the lights. I really liked that car and often think about getting another.

I also finally got the keys to my 65 Fairlane which my Dad had owned for about 8 years prior to that. Still have it. This picture is from last year. I painted the front plate 20 years ago too.

 

1956 chevy sedan delivery

 

I was driving my 1970 ss nova,still have it, and my 69 dodge charger, wish i still had it lol

 

A '67 2wd short widebed Chevy P/U, 283/PowerGlide/3.73 gears... Red with a Red interior. Cut a Coil out of the front springs.... heated up the rears to make 'er level.
Oh,... and I was 21.... So probably drivin' to the bar, or at least the liquor store.

 

One for work, one for play.-MIKE

 

1972 Dodge Polara, smoothest car I ever drove... like a magic carpet!

Fit 8 teenagers

 

after going back over this aint it amazing how many of us still have the same car,20 years later or longer. part of the family i guess.

 

1988, lets see...1962 Impala, 1970 HD, 1967 C20. Ahh gas was cheap back then.

 

Still driving the same ones. 78 Ranchero daily and 57 Ranchero weekends

 

The same car I,m rebuilding now.

 

A huffy, I was 13.

 

Lets see; around '89 I had a 75 Cordoba, then a 79 Ramcharger full time 4WD then a 79 D 100 shortbed with a slant six, 3 on the tree, manual steering, and brakes; damn I miss that truck! I had that 79 pickup for about 7 years and beat the snot out of it the whole way; after about 4 years I put a mildly warmed over 318 in with a manual 4 speed OD tranny after I blew out the 3.55 geared 8-1/4 I put a 8-3/4 in it with 3.91s out of a 69 D 100 that I'd tried to buy a few years before; but now was in the junkyard having not move since before I tried to make it mine. Have not gone that far; I now drive an 83 D 250 (3/4 ton with yes,another 318) daily. Love carbs and no computers!

 

One just like this POS..except in loser blue.

I wish I was playing with Hot Wheels, but was probably playing with myself as NO chicks would ever set foot in this damn thing!!!

 

73 Grabber Maverick, My first car, Lost liscence son after !!!
