well, just a couple, im only 19 so...
1. some old mazda wagon, old man found it out in the bush stuck in a hole, had been used as a shooting rig, complete with home made sunroof/ spotlighting hole, dragged her out, started it up and bought it home on the trailer, served as a paddock basher for 2 months then we took it back. 2. 1977 XC ute, ($200) 3.3 column manual, too much rust, 3. datto 1500 ute,($50) ran on bottled gas (natural?) halfway throught the X-flow conversion, found out how much an engineers was... 100 from metal recyclers the next day. 4. XD monty, ($200) reco'd 250 X flow, rusty but had factory sunroof that never leaked, will put that in the new XD ghia one day. 5. XD 351, was going to be a project, now raping for parts. 6. XD 3.3, clean as, immaculate, bought as parts car for the project.. (turned 18 and got my license at this stage) 7. EA fairmont CFI 3 speed, enough said, stolen 3 times. got it back every time, unfortunatly, going to be a pizza delivery car in Rochester now. 8. EB XR8. trouble from day 1. water pump and alernator shit themselves on the first day. needed auto and diff rebuild, cbf'd so i sold it, 9. current... XD fairmont Ghia cleveland, paid $1500 with reg, not stock any more... and oh so much simpler than that damn XR. i think thats it...
