LFairbanks Posted July 16, 2014 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Not to derail the thread, but I think some of us are curious as to some of the stories behind some of those cars and motorcycles, Bruce. Like the one's that were stolen. Where any of them ever recovered? And the Honda 550 that was sold "twice". And the Sportster built from parts. I'am sure I missed some. Thanks for sharing your list. Your wife must be a patient woman to allow you to have "parts cars"....lol b_pappy and Rich 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b_pappy Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Thanks guys. I don't want to derail this post. Maybe if I get a chance I'll add some detail and post it in the lounge. The story behind the Porsche is the girl I was with that night, not the recovery. The Harley the story is the recovery. Two or three of them were bought in bars. More than one landed me behind bars (hey, it was a long time ago). And yes, my wife is an absolute keeper! For our 5th wedding anniversary I got her chrome valve covers for her car (and she liked them).

JLKoupe Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Well, those were incredibly fun photos! Back on the topic of naming cars: I've only named two cars out of all that I've owned. I find that cars tend to name themselves rather than the other way around. At least that's been my experience. I've even named cars that weren't mine because after driving them, they just seemed to deserve names. One was a yellow Corvette coupe that I rented during a week-long Miami vacation and named Sunny. The other was a little open-wheel racecar that I drove in a class recently, #12, who became Tina after 2 days of patiently suffering through my learning to shift her properly.

Soccerluvr4 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 (edited) I think i have the shortest list in the entire thread. 2001 Mustang Bullitt (named her Jade) Bought it used with 139k on it 3 days after i turned 18. My first and only car as of right now. If i wasn't so attached to it, or if it was a regular GT i probably would have sold it by now for a Cobra or new 5.0. But i just can't bring myself to sell it.. So it's my money pit right now. The day i bought it How she sits now Edited September 29, 2014 by Soccerluvr4 Rich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
