79 Stingray II
66 black Fastback (built for a friend who lost his in a fire)
69 Lil Chik
many BMX bikes
4 dept store Mt bikes
3 girls lightweights
Other stuff I'm working on, or not:
2000 Jincheng M50 (perfect copy of early Honda Z50R mini-trail street version, built in China)
1980 Honda CX500 (shaft drive and water cooled in 1980!)
1970 VW singlecab pickup (needs those front floors bad!)
1971 VW Notchback (1600, FI, 4-spd, sunroof, US spec, European delivery grey-market car) + a Type 3 floorpan, complete
1984 Volvo 242DL, awesome suspension, toasted motor, last year of the 2-door
Technically I own a 73 Beetle shell and a 90 Volvo 740T wagon in pieces at one friends house, and a really grotesque car trailer at another friends house... things that need to go away
That might be a complete list, except for the cars I drive:
92 Volvo 244 with some fun upgrades (cam, wheels, suspension, custom grille, factory wing)
90 Volvo 740T wagon (hers)
90 Volvo 740 wagon 5-speed
70 VW Bus undergoing nose job
The Volvos have nearly 750,000 miles between them.
