These are just mine and not my wife’s. She has had some pretty interesting cars herself. Both of our fathers were engineers with GM so we both enjoy cars. First time I visited my parents with a non-GM car, my Dad wouldn’t let me park it in his driveway😄. You will notice I have an affinity for European diesels.

The day I sold it at 20 years old
Ya I am hopeful as well, this was the BMW at 20 years old when I sold it, all original even the paint. Really should have kept it but just ran out of room.

 

It looked great! I love when people look after their cars. I'm putting the link to that photo below as it was not showing on my phone.

I remember trying to buy a TR8 when they first came out from a Brit car specialist in Tucson. We attempted to drive three of them off the lot. All three broke down before we could get off the dealer's lot. I still wanted one, but just wasn't in the cards. Sounds like yours was one of the good ones.

 

Buff, you the man. Diverse metal and skills to match. Props.

 

LOL, ever had a passenger car where the seats folded into a bed? I'm STILL nostalgic.
That Rambler was my first head gasket replacement.

 

Thanks

I can’t believe three Chrysler Lasers….how far we’ve come from that modest hatchback lol…and speaking of head gaskets, that sucker went through them like candy…I got pretty good at changing them lol

My little brother had a light blue EXP when he lived in Reno. He'd drive it over to visit me in Sacramento. He had personalized plates that said, "2 Cute". Car didn't drive badly for what was available those days, but the color and 2 Cuteness sapped my manhood every time I sat in it.
