hey, it may need some work....but it continues to shock me everyday...and given some time....I am sure she will be a great looking and performing ride. And trust me, I am no beginner to WORKING on a car...other rides to be posted after the Cam's pics)

yeap, its a......car alright

I said the paints wasted

Yea, it needs some bodywork...that will get farmed out since I SUCK at that....most the rest I can do

Interior....well its all there at least....I did already find me leather seats and almost a full leather interior...so this will soon be changing...and my leather is all power also so bonus for my lazy butt

More for the lazy side of life...and NO...its not changing....ever

Hey...BONUS!!!! It has WORKING AC!!!!

Non bonus....no stereo...although a full system should be going in this weekend, complete Bi-amped, subs, interior speaks.....the whole shebang

yep...got me some miles

So thats the Camry in the beginning stage....given some time....we should get to something like this...since this was a wreck when I got it
88 Civic (sorry, its a scan, all i got besides a pic of my daughter standing next to it at the state fair)

My Mazda truck lowrider...(mine is the lower one)

My Rod

My 96 Olds Cutlass....for some odd reason...I LOVED this car (also the white 79 Corolla in the background was what I learned to drive in)

Oh yes...My BELOVED 91 Legend (yes, that is me sitting in Fred Flintstones car)

My 97 Accord...it was...ok

I has more pics somewhere of other rides....my lifted 94 Chevy, my 78 chevy K truck.....got some others yet....I have owned ALOT of cars....as we can tell

You sir, have owned many cars!

Just curious, but seing your previous history, what made you buy a Toyota?

^ +1. And welcome to TN! At least you know she's a beater. Some of your other stuff is NICE! Of course, she can be fixed up. Not to flame a new user, but have you considered getting another camry? This one seems like a little bit of a lost cause... especially if you want to do a full on restore (with leather interior). Just my 2 cents.

wow, that is a lot of cars, this is over how many years? by brother holds the record in my group of friends, 7 cars - 3 years, not one wrecked...AND he was only making about 36 grand/year at the time. still dont know how he did it.

jtex2717 · 09-24-2010, 08:14 AM

LOL....Well if he is anyting like me...he finds his cars for cheap...I have bought 2 96 Coupes that have totaled to be about $1200 together...the car I had before that my 95 Geo Metro I paid $100...and my 89 Accord I paid $600...thats four cars in 5 years about...but however its not hard to find a cheap vehicle....esp if people dont know they are being lowballed.....

I can top 7 easy. 15 cars, 5 years. I buy them cheap and fix them though. I keep them til I get bored then I can sell for a profit. The two I spent the most on were the mustang at 700, and the f-150 which was lifted and whatnot and it set me back 1100. My current camry only cost me 100 bucks.

That hotrod looks great, what is that? My most collectible one was the 75 fiat. I loved it but...it was a fiat so I got tired of fixing it. Traded my 91 ranger for it, and the guy sold my truck for 3 grand. The fiat blew a head gasket and I was a dumb high school kid who needed a car so I traded it for a beater jeep. I keep a list on my computer to keep track of my lineup haha..

87 civic
89 blazer
90 mustang convertible
91 ranger ext. cab
97 lumina
98 sable
75 fiat spider convertible
86 jeep cherokee
94 ranger ext. cab
88 jimmy
95 camry
91 accord
88 s-10
89 f150
92 camry

Nothing will top the flinstone mobile though

***projektvertx*** · 09-24-2010, 09:14 AM

I see many of us have owned many cars!! I've only owned a big fat 1 car since I started in driving in '05. Care to take a guess at what it is?

LittleWhiteBubble · 09-24-2010, 11:06 AM

You gotta live a little man! Even if you just get another camry haha. I want a second one to do all the bold project stuff to while mine can stay a d.d. I never should have sold my 95. It had every option but the sunroof.

iovaykind · 09-24-2010, 12:06 PM

i'm with project.. but i've only been driving for 1+ years.. almost 2. i feel so young

LittleWhiteBubble · 09-24-2010, 12:32 PM

I'm only 21. I just squeezed a lot out of those years. This car is impeding my progress though. I've had it for about a year now and don't want to get rid of it yet.

I just turned 21 too

Well, I'm actually looking for a second car right now, but I'm very picky about what I want... I was original planning on selling my car in '05 and buying an Accord Coupe V6, but I realized that I:

a) Got an awesomely reliable car
b) can never find a car that I know the record off like mine

I've always been under the illusion that most of us on here are younger than 25, so don't feel young!
