Weirdest car you've owned
This is definitely mine! Same exact color even!http://ecomodder.com/forum/member-la...3560-index.jpg
This was given to me free from a High School friend a few years after high school. 1958 Edsel Burmuda. It was a non runner. I stored it for a while, then sold. At that age, sporty looking cars were more on my mind! This had a pushbutton automatic, and stats that I have read give the engine in this (360ci?) credit for putting out gobs of torque. Don't those taillights just kill 'ya? |
Don't you wish you had it now????
Weird, as in, least likely anyone else would have anything like it? For me that would probably be the '64 Triumph Spitfire with a '68 Toyota Corona engine and transmission I used to have. P.S. Ooh, forgot about the '68 VW Squareback with the Corvair engine! The Corvair certainly isn't commonplace but there are others out there like mine. Same with the '60 VW Kombi, and the '59 Bel Air too. I used to have a '74 Nova hatchback with a '63 283 in it... LOVED that car, sure wish I still had it, costs a fortune to get one now. :mad: |
I've had 4 cars with the audi 2.2l 5 cylinder engine.....
1981 audi 4000 coupe 1988 audi 5000s 1984 vw Quantum wolfsberg 1989 audi coupe (red, blk leather, little badaxx car!) Oh, and a Mercedes 5 cylinder desiel 300C sedan(i think) didn't have a V8 automoblie until 2005 when I got the 02Q45 (Been driving since 73) Heck, I had a 1979 Mustang Pace Car and it had the 2.2l turbo 4cylinder. |
Probably the '54 Sunbeam Alpine: Sunbeam Alpine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Or maybe the '67 Toyota Stout pickup: Toyota Stout - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia There were a few others in there, too: a '50s Jaguar, an early Volvo, and others. And of course the '00 Honda Insight is not exactly what most people consider normal :-)

1963 Rambler American 220, 4 door sedan, with three on the tree, and a 180 cu. in. L-head engine.

I've had a few: Audi 5000 diesel, Chevrolet Corvair 140hp with a Powerglide, 74 AMC Javelin/AMX, 86 Ford Magnum Hauler ( half van, half pickup dually with an integrated sleeper; looked like a mini semi truck ). The stranger and more obscure they are, the better I like them. As long as I can get parts for them fairly easily I'll drive them.
There was a time that Chryco back in the late 50s-early 60s used to sell a Perkins diesel powered Plymouth sedan for taxi use. Big fins and good mpg. |
