Cool cars Craiggo and chris-y777 
I don't quite remember when I sat down. I know it was right before I started looking at this thread. I'm done now and in love with 60 gazillion rides.
From the Dynasty's, to the non-us models (grass is always greener huh), to the trucks, hot rods, lowriders, rustbuckets and everything in between, Good Show! I've lurked here for years but never thought to look beyond the bikes. This thread has been like finding a big diamond in an even larger gold nugget. Not to mention the massive amount of VW's.
Here are some of my past rides -
My 81 Caddy - 1.9L worked over by the PO as a rally motor, carrying a keg to a GTG at about 7:30 am (Shot by a buddy hanging out of my 93 Fox)
69 Toyota Corona, 88 VW Fox Wagon, 93 VW Fox Sedan, 90 Audi V8 quattro, the truck was the neighbors
The WMUM (World's Most Uncomfortable Motorcycle) and my cruiser in some state of dress
The Corona
"Oh no, don't worry. That motor will easily fit in the trunk of my car." Buddy's Mk2 16v GTI and another buddy's VR6 Corrado provide a fuzzy background to this kinda out of focus picture
Juvenile games to celebrate the new 2.0 ABA with worked over 8v head, running a monster cam
The 93 Fox was built as an AutoX, Track day car with a sleeper, street thug mentality. Drove it this stripped out, deafening, uncomfortable beast for close to a decade and loved every minute of it
Ain't much to look at but underneath a lot of empty beer cans (the bags on the left), behind that busted up nose, is an original 4AGE Toyota Corolla
$300 84 GTI AutoX Car
The V8q and 93 Fox at a track day (along with a few buddies, most of who are the same guys I ride with)
July 4th weekend Fireworks Show
I like this shot of the Fox Wagon (shot on Cheyenne Mountain, the home of NORAD)
Off track excursion causes swap of parts from one Fox to another
Pig
11,000 ft above sea level - Again another juvenile move as the car is sitting on some old race tires I picked up in trade. So sticky. Buddy's mk1 GTI which is currently getting a makeover, including a TT dash and 1.8t.
There have been many others I don't have pictures of handy or I'd bore you to death some more... well, one more wouldn't hurt.
My current and only motorized transport parked in front of subtle hint as to my other non-motorized transport option

My current '95 Rio Grande Wrangler. One year only bright mango color.
My '77 Delta 88 Indy Pace Car. One of 2401 and the only one I've seen in the 5 years I've owned it.
And my '81 AMC Eagle SX4 I rather regret selling. Me on the hood sporting my car-matching attire :lol:

FoxST: Wow, great rides man! I didnt know that model was available in the US, my dad used to have a hatch back Fox, called "GOL" here,
he bought it brand new back in 94, totalled it in 95 then bought the new model (back in 95).
And a dear friend just bought the last version of the GOL Pick up called Saveiro:
He did too totaled his 94 Saveiro, back in 2000, although he got to spend several months at the hospital because of it :?

My 71 Fiat 850 Berlina
A bit of a rat itself. The focus has been making it go fast and handle. Cosmetics will come later.
I drove it with the original 817cc motor with a staggering 31 horsepower. That wasn't enough so I went with a 903 with a hot cam, higher compression and bigger carb, then I added megasquirt, then EDIS replaced the distributor
Then the cam was replaced with a stocker and a turbo replaced the header. It is now running the original 817 block bored out to 65mm for 843cc at 9.2:1 compression with 18 pounds of boost being forced into it.
The car is a mishmash of parts from whatever I have been able to scavenge from. Bits of civics, subarus, GM, ford, VW. The front calipers and fuel pump are from a GSX-R sportbike. The throttle body and injectors are sourced from a Yamaha raptor quad.
It is tiny. It is brutally quick and it still manages to return almost 50mpg. It is my daily driver.
The day I drug it home
