I have a '98 Ford Ranger as a daily driver. I didn't like the front end so I changed it to the 2001-2003 style

went from this


to this

This my 87 Toyota Soarer fitted with a 1jzgte and r154 5spd. Its currently pretty stock at the moment due to a road worthy and really only has a twin entry intake, Trust front mount cooler and a Kakimoto turbo back exhaust as far as engine mods goes. I estimate around 250rwhp in this guise. It isnt going to stay looking or performing like this for long though :D





This is my other ride. Its a 62 Holden EJ Special and is totally original but does need a little tidying up in places. The original 138 grey motor which is shifted via a 3 speed manual column shift box runs beautifully.

hehe well, here's sth completly different for you, as I'm from Croatia we drive abit different cars than you over the great pond

my father had allways been a great fan of Citroen cars so today I share his passion for that brand

in my drive park is today a 5 yr old Citroen C3 1.1 60 hp... that's the strongest car that I own hehe



second one is a derivate of a Citroen 2CV, it has a french name Ami 8 (Ami means a friend), so this friend is owned by my girlfriend it has the same chassis and drive train as 2CV - mighty air coolde 602 ccm engine 2 cylinder 32 hp monster

the last car is in fact my dad's first car 2CV6 also Citroen today slightly customized & slightly lowered by yours truly, it runs like a dream and last year it deserved it's place in a specialised french magazine "Planete2cv" - my pride and joy, so I hope you wouldn't mind if I put a few pics of this one

photos by Etienne Musslin and joe Xmas - this is me by the car

I've got a Grand Am, wife's got a Chevy Venture (4 kids and all). Thinking about getting a work/project pickup. I had a '72 F-250 Camper special in high school....I'm nostalgic, so I'm thinking a '68 to '72 Ford pickup.

BTW- best vehicle I've ever owned? 1990 GMC S-15 Jimmy- bulletproof and dead simple. Drove it everywhere, never let me down. Sold it with 188,000 on the clock 6 years ago, I still see it around from time to time....big mistake to sell.

Worst vehicle ever owned- 1996 Mercury Sable- hateful, ugly beast. Transmission decided second gear was unnecessary at about 80,000 miles...then engine/transaxle cradle seperated itself from the unibody at 116,000 miles (rust- unrepairable....unsafe).

dule, I really like your Citroen 2CV6.
It is very unique to me. I have never seen one before. The front end body styling reminds me of a Volkswagen Beetle. I love those!
Only three lug nuts holding on the front wheels seems a bit scary to me though.
Thankyou for sharing photos of it with us.

I have a 1990 chevy 1/2 ton pick up bought 1/2 mile from the Bristol motorspeedway
nascar track its well used I put in( did it myself) a reman. engine 305 cubic inch. did it 3 times in 2 weeks due to the first 2 being bad leaking block etc. the last one was a good one. if I did it over I'd rebuild it myself. then drove it from Va. to Ca. and back.
My car is a 2002 chevy impalla.
My big bike is a Harley Davidson 1995 ultra classic (tuna boat) with screaming eagle 3 cam 50 mm zippers performance fuel injection with auto tune. rush mufflers
My fastest ride is my homebuilt airplane it a KR-2 with a vw engine 2180cc all built by me. in 20 months
I had to build a shop to build the airplane in. did that when I lived in Wyoming 1974 to 1994.

sweet. I took a break from my '51 Chevy and my MB and started building a hotrod. hand built frame, hand built body ( still not finished ).. it's a traditional style T frame, but a few inches longer and kicked up 9" in the rear which is a little short but I want rake.. it should resemble a model A when done

Wow, what do you think of the 'RE-5? I had the 750 water buffalo, and always wanted the rotary.

it's one of those bikes that is so ugly it's cool. smooth running with good power, they had 60hp from just 500cc, the chrome is really bad and i have the whole bike torn down to refinsh everything. some day i'll get around to doing it.
