    My list of cars over the years is way to long to get into here (63 Impala convertible, two 1970 Cadillac Convertibles, a '72 Fleetwood limousine, etc) but for the past six years, I've been interested in Jaguars. This is a 1986 XJ6 that I show in Jaguar club "concours" or car shows.



    I also have an '87 XJ6 and a '92 XJ6. My daily driver is an '87 Buick Park Avenue with 295,000 miles and I also have a 1979 BMW 733i. My brother and I have a 1978 Chevy K20 (3/4 4WD pick up). I'm also "into" license plates and have a "special" plate on every one of those vehicles (I'm a member of ALPCA )

    it's only a 350 but it still gets the job done, got a ton of looks rolling up to prom in it friday night haha, 454 is going into whichever car i can blow the motor in first (the 71 or 72) the Duster has a 318, thats just a beater, plan on doing burnouts at the summer nationals until it explodes haha

    My Father has a '00 Mercedes ML 55 AMG. It weighs in at 5000 lbs, not including me, and I did a 14 second 1/4 mile at the track. And it can carry 5 people and all their stuff!

    I drive a 1990 Toyota pickup everyday. Then my Avatar is of my 85 4Runner I have modified for off roading. I also have a 94 Mustang GT I have been working on for a number of years. Last year it was doing 14.35 on the 1/4 mile. I have added some Bassani Headers, MSD ingnition and a 10 pound supercharger pulley instead of a 9 pound. Reprogram the chip and hopefully I can bring it into the 13's. I also have a stereo weighing me down that I am lightening up this year. Some 6 piston Bear brakes are going in right now too although that won't help my 1/4mile time

    well my daily driver is now the '87 Iroc, 350 5.7 Tuned Port.... after blowing the tranny in a SUV... now they let me drive THIS. What are they thinking haha, I said I'd fix it up as I drove it though so maybe they can sell it, if I don't break it first.

    Actually, it isn't from Cigar Pass. I got it from one of those humongous e-mails that a friend sent me of humorous images.
