Some of my memorable cars

1975 Ford Mustang Ghia 302ci (V8) Automatic
My first car.  Need I say more?  I was 17 with a V8 Mustang.  Peter and I used to race Victor's 1982? Z28 Camaro home every day from High School.  We never won.  But we did have a lot of fun until the engine mysteriously exploded.  Hehehe OOPS

1975 Pontiac Grand Am 400ci (V8) Automatic
A very comfortable car that was built lake a tank.  This was the car that destroyed a Dodge Dart after I spun out in the rain but suffered no damage to itself.  I also helped the City of New York remove a forty foot section of guardrail from the Cross Island Parkway with only slight damage to a front fender.  Oh yeah I also wasted the entire side of some guys two day old 1986 Mustang GT when  I changed lanes right into him.

1979 Ford Mustang 2.3L (4 Cyl) Automatic
This was my third car and my first "Fox Body" Mustang.  I added the 1986 Mustang GT front seats, rims and tires.

1990 Mustang LX 5.0 (V8) 5-speed
 I remember how proud I was with my first "new car".  So proud in fact that I almost got it impounded the fist night I had it (just 300 miles on the odometer) on the Long Island Expressway way out in Suffolk for doing 130mph at 3am.  Don't listen to your friend the cop (Peter) when he says "lets see how fast it goes." Don't worry I can get you out of it".  Luckily he knew how long it would take a late 80's Caprice cop car to catch up with us and I was able to get off the Hwy before he could.

Better pic soon

1993 Mustang LX 5.0 (V8) 5-speed
I loved this car to pieces. This one was my favorite.  I only had her about 30 days before some lowlife took her from me in the middle of the night.  In my anger I leased a 1994 Ford Escort wagon to replace her.  Very economical and ultra-reliable but dull.

1990 Mustang LX 5.0 (V8) Automatic
This car was the last car in my trilogy of white 5.0 LX Mustangs.  I walked into my friends Ford dealership looking to buy the used Jeep she had out front.  Just my luck she said "come back here I want to show you something"  This car was owned by the service manager of her Lincoln Dealership.  It was five years old with 12,000 original miles.  Home situations forced me to sell it two years later.  He had to sell it because his daughter made the insurance go up.  He did put in a a bunch of high performance parts and this car was very quick for an automati

My 1998 Ford Contour GL Sport V6
This car was a blast to drive.  My wife at the time used it to win a few trophies at numerous Autocross events.   I used it on a few race tracks including road racing at Lime Rock Park and on the drag strip of Long Island Dragway (Picture)

Peter GT burnout.jpg (12706 bytes)

This is my best friend Peter in his Mustang GT.  We had tons of fun zooming around the highways of NYC together in the early 90's with our Mustangs trying to look cool. AHHH youth...  Where did it go?

Thankfully

I have have lost track but aside from the cars listed here I have had another 10 Mustangs a Subaru Justy (great little 4WD car) a Ford E150, a Chevy Astro Van, a two late 70's Chevy Impalas and a 95 Ford Windstar LX minivan.  Most of these cars were great but some I care to forget.
