I remember my dad had some ww1 war bonds in a safe deposit box from his father,, he cashed one $100 bond for a bit over $5000 and bought me this '80 mustang, it only had 4 cylinders and would not do any of the shit I wanted it to do. It lasted 1 month and 7 days before I totaled it,, I bought my next car

That was not a good era for the Mustang. Looked more like a Pinto than a Mustang......

1976 f100 4x4 Except mine was lime green. It was my second vehicle. I bought it in 95. Had a 360 in it. Was a good fun truck.

We had one of those on the farm but it was a 3 on the tree. I think we got rid of it in the early 1990s.

That was not a good era for the Mustang. Looked more like a Gremlin than a Mustang......

I had to drive moms Gremlin now and then before I had my own car (my last post)... didn’t remember Mustangs looking like that!

Almost bought this back in the day, but Marine Federal Credit Union would not finance me past my EAS (turns out I stuck around the Corps for almost 27 years and dumped Marine Fed for Navy Fed as soon as I hit an overseas deployment).

Not a car, but probably my favorite conveyance that I've ever owned. A 97 Sportster 1200C. Had mine done up with the detachable windscreen, 2in1 Thunderheaders, saddle bags, highway bars with highway pegs, mini 8" apes, and braided steel control cables and a 5 star front wheel (was not a fan of the spokes so I replaced that front wheel soonest). Put a lot of miles on that thing. Made it into a mini touring bike and it was fun as hell.

I have a '98 Sporty. Mine is red with the full windshield and bags. Also have a Heritage soft tail, a Kawasaki 400 dual sports and a Yamaha 125 Vino scooter.

1979 Pontiac Grand Prix. Loved the T-tops. Mine was Baby Blue. I bought it when I got back from the Med float in '85.
