My first car, back in about 1983. This thing got absolutely hammered, and never failed me once. Finally ended its days at the hands of a Nissan urvan. Sleep well my friend......

My second car, originally my dads till I convinced him to let me buy it. This car saved me, as I almost bought one of the last rear wheel drive Gemini's (TG?) new until the dealer tried screwing me over.

 

Took it away for a month, stuck in a cam, exhaust, headwork, twin webers, suspension. Brought it back and offered to take him for a spin. The look on his face was priceless. He couldn't believe the transformation, or that I had managed to do the work myself!

 

This car got hillclimbed, sprinted, autocrossed, motorkhaned nearly every weekend before getting me to work each day. What a car! I think this bottom shot was taken at Challenge of clubs.

 

Then sold on within the car club before reliably being seen at pickapart a number of years later. sob.

 

There then followed a procession of Datsun 1600's which I don't have photo's of, before getting back into an AE86 which I still have.

HA! I hated that car! It felt so torquey while cruising around but when you put your foot down it went no better.... Sounded good though and served it purpose (workcar/dirtbike transporter)

 

Few more.....
