nice list gary.. I did see one mistake tho.. In 70 there was no Boss 351. They did not come out till the new Mustang body style in 71. In 70 it was either the Boss 302 or the Boss 429

Say, stupid me, you are right, I forgot: it was a '71 Boss 351, firemist blue with silver stripes. Was an ok car for a Ford. I only wish that it was a Boss 302 or Boss 429. thanks for the correction.

My other vehicles were:

75ish Nova with a three on the tree.
72 Chevrolet short bed pickup
74 Torino GT with a 351 cleveland
76 Mercury Montego with a 351 modified
74 ford full time four wheel drive pick up with a 460 and a four barrel (if I was lucky I got 3 gallons per mile)
62 (and a half) International Scout
77 Camaro (slug)
82 full sized four wheel drive XLT Lariat Bronco
82 Datsun 200SX
82 Honda Civic
93 Suzuki Katana
97 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-9R (still have it)
98 Isuzu Rodeo (still have it)
87 Buick Grand National (of course I still have it)
02 Audia Quattro 1.8T (sold it before I came to Korea)
95 Hynudai Sonata (just for Korea)

Gosh, I'm kind of a loser, I guess. Here's my list (for real):

-87 GN
-79 Olds '98' (got for two hundred bucks from some kid to drive for 2 months while GN was in the shop)
-87 GN
-97 Regal (to drive on days when GN isn't working right)


That's it. My first car was an 87 GN and my last car will be an 87 GN.
