'87, or '88 Pontiac Fiero w Chev. V8 purposely set up for track road racing.

a 2nd Gen. CRX with body removed set up for quick body swaps such as downsized
'55 Chev., '70 Chevelle SS, Jag XKE in shortened race look, etc.....

Owned before, but in finished version would be a '60 Chev. Sedan Delivery set up
for competant cornering track use, plus slideouts for camping for 2, probably
powered by a GM Bio diesel w 2 smallish Turbos, and maybe a blower as well.

A couple of you have mentioned motorcycles....

'83 Honda CX 650 Turbo

'80 ish? Suzuki 1000

An early '80's BMW touring bike of some sort.

Also I'm thankful that a couple of you mentioned wanting either the first time, or
regaining a CRX.

I REALLY appreciate the '87 I currently have. It's been to WYO., MT. and back 4-5 times; it's been to Mt. Rushmore, up in BC., and Alberta; and to the Grand Canyon
and back. With my best of 62.9mpg., and the fun in handling; can you repeat the words..... "Gone when they pry the keys out of my dead cold hand?"
