UPDATES: SORRY GUYS!! The Grand Prix is GONE! You want the heart breaker.. Well there's two. First off it's been a while so bear with this news. She was sold spring of '05 because I was suprised by my fiance with a 94 Mustang GT I've been eyeing(yeah yeah I sold out). But I'll never go back! My GT is a GEM. Second bad piece of news..I put in a new tranny with a Trans-Go shift kit and then sold the car for....$1500 bucks! I know, I was stupid. But my fiance' also through in the towel on the GTO idea and picked up an 01' GT. It is bitchin! I'll have a page soon. IN MEMORY OF CHRISTINE.. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU:(

Well, here is my baby "Christine". She's an all stock base model with 130,000 original miles on the odometer. It's a 400, 2 barrel, with a 400TH tranny. It's pretty impressive for what it is, but remember, it's BONE STOCK! I'm not making any claims, by far! My Brother's 94 Mustang GT make this car look slow, and when I raced him, that was stock as well. Far from it now. I've never taken her to the track. But I know it wouldn't have come close to my bro's then 14.1@99mph with a 1.93 60-foot time. Maybe mid sixteens if I was lucky! I love her with every beat of my heart, but I wish she was an LJ. Small performance is there, but only one feature comfort which still works better than any of my other cars, is the A/C!! It's a bench seat, with a column shift. I've owned it since I was 15 with my permit. I'm almost 20 now and am not planning on selling her anytime soon! Pontiacfan7669's 1976 Pontiac Grand Prix Pontiacfan7669's 1976 Pontiac Grand Prix

For a winter car, I just picked up a 89' Buick Regal GS. I was bored at work one day and started checking out cars on Yahoo, and found it for $500! It's got 126,000 miles on it with 80,000 on the engine. It's a 3.1 instead of the popular and standard 2.8 (which was a bonus)! The guy who owned it didn't take very good care of it though. I stuck about $300 into it before I started driving it and so far the car seems to be good for it. I'll post pictures when it is done (Early to Mid 2004)

Since I got my license in 99', I've had a handful of cars. Here's a list with the car and comments about them- (See Page 3 for more info on these cars)

1976 Pontiac Grand Prix (still own)-
Great car. 130,000 miles and hardly any problems since I bought it with 105,000.

1987 Chevrolet Celebrity SW (Eurosport clone)- My first winter beater. Also a good car. Paid $500 bucks for it and it was ready to go! Gave it to my girlfriend (montecarloserena), and she flipped it. May it rest in peace. However, she did get a 96 Monte Carlo 3.1 out of the deal. I'll have more on Serena "The Bitch w/ Attitude" soon.

1994 Mercury Topaz- Paid $400 bucks for it. A pretty descent car considering it had 240,000 miles on it! Girl hated it, thought it looked like a dog dragging it's ass across the ground.
Sold it after I broke the exhaust manifold slamming it into first gear after I slowed at some railroad tracks. The severe jolt of the tires spinning across the rails caused my problem. Hey, it held up for quite a long time considering I beat the unmerciful crap out of it. Sold it for $150. Last I heard, it was still going.

1988 Buick Park Avenue- Was given to me by my parents (after I sold the Fastpaz)
My parents bought it when it was two years old. I love'd this car (it's what started my love for Buicks). It still runs strong with 232,000 miles on it. I finally sold the car to a friend "in need" for $300. I can't believe I did it considering it was in immaculate shape!

1989 Buick Real Grand Sport- Seems like a nice car. It had been sitting for 7 months and I didn't start working on it till November.

Sweet GP. Definately build up that Pontiac 400 to whip your bro's Mustang's ass! Just because the car weighs two tons, doesn't mean it is going to be a slow car. I'm building a sleeper out of my 76 Monte Carlo. I've been to the track once this year and ran a 15.54 sec @ 86.61 mph in the quarter mile. And that was only because I couldn't get enough traction. I should be pulling 14's easily. Anyway, keep up the good work and check out my MC sometime.

oh, and any chance the name "Christine" came from the movie about the possesed car that could fix itself and it killed people? lol if its not, that wont make any sense to you.
