1977 Ford LTD II

Biggest POS I've ever owned. Like most teenagers, I bought it cheap and spent a lot of money keeping it running, only to practically give it away after it REALLY went bad...

1972 LeMans Sport Convertible, came with a GTO front clip and a crushed drivers side rear quarter panel. I had to sell it because I couldn't afford the upkeep. I sure wish I had it back now.

pretty much my dream truck in HS. except being the sport model. me and my best friend were huge mopar fans as kids. We thought it was the coolest thing to build our own new rams on the dodge website. The funniest thing is that we both said when we got older we would buy those trucks we built brand new and we stuck to out word. He just bought his a lot sooner than I because I got mine last year.

My first was a 94' Escort, I'm assuming yours is a four door? Or maybe not even an escort?

Lol four door, yes. That damn thing just wouldn't die. had over 300,000 miles on it when i finally got rid of it and got a little Hyundai.

Should have kept the damn Ford.

1969 Simca 1118

(More shots here.) Mine was primer gray, though. Rear-engine, rear-wheel drive, 1118cc, 56Hp. 0-60? Take your lunch and eat it when you get there. With all the weight over the back, it had interesting handling characteristics.

1965 Mustang Fastback, unfortunately a six cylinder with a three speed.

I wasn't really a Ford guy, I just bought it because I could afford it (cheap).

I did like its looks though, and would buy another one now if I could and then make it go faster like the old days.

I didn't have a camera back then (1972), so no pics.

1972 Ford (of Germany) Capri. (got it in 1976)

I had seen European Rally Driving and drove that poor beast like I was possessed!

Great little mini-pony car!

Although I did learn to drive a 1976 Fold LTD Country Squire Station Wagon. about 3 tons of 460 CID 4 bbl American Iron (it was even white with the fake plastic wood decals)

Had some good times in that one down at the Drive In!

I had the '73 Ford Capri. It handled very well, although it need a second testicle.

Dark blue 1968 Lincoln Continental with a light blue leather interior.
Interior was shot by the time I got it, but after a rebuild of the 460 and the c6, it purred like a kitten.
A kitten that happened to go through gas with single digit mileage

not the best for a kid in HS when gas was around $4 a gallon, so sadly I had to sell it
