14a) '81 Honda 650-4
15) '77 Plymouth Volare sw
16) '86.5 Nissan Hardbody truck (1st new car!)
(At this pont, 1986, I gave up the bohemian writer's life and got a real job, selling cars. What I owned became not so important as what I could cadge to drive for a while, which included a Porsche 911 Carerra, Mazda RX7 'vert, Lincoln LSC for a long term demo, Merkur Scorpio demo, Mazda 929, Lincoln Town Car demo... then came the dark years in the early '90s, Luminas and S10 Blazers.)
Married, '91...
'91 Chev Corsica sdn
'94 Chev Corsica sdn
(During the '90s, still took home as many interesting used cars as I could, including my first drive in a Miata, some BMWs, a Mercedes diesel, a Camaro Z28SS, a C5 Vette, but mostly Blazers, Malibus, Impalas... yawn.)
'97 Mazda Miata #1
'97 Mazda Miata #2 (#1 was totalled)
'01 Chev Malibu sdn
The Miatas have been my revival as car crazy. They've resucitated my love of driving, polishing, and wrenching!
It's ALL good. All motorsports come from the same part of the heart, whether you're drifting or autoxing or saving classic muscle or modding bleeding edge customized Hyundais or building custom choppers or polishing your Corsica.
Next!
