That was supposed to be my first car, we got one for free that we towed home and were going to fix it up, but the heads were no good and my dad figured it wasn't worth it, ended up selling it for like $200. It was in pretty good damn shape, too. I think it was just one head and that's it.
Since Tankred's too lazy to reply, his beetle's a 1970. :v:
[QUOTE=bradley;31739026]I don't care what anyone says, neons are fucking awesome.
Sure, they're death traps and they don't last forever, but they drive real nice and they're kind of toyish but not too toyish, and I think that makes them neat. Plus, you can pick them up hella cheap so they make good beaters with decent power. Just.... Don't wreck one.[/QUOTE]
I think Neons look alright, but I don't like FWD at all. If it was RWD or even AWD, I'd have one.
My Impreza has the option to be put in FWD. I tried it once while I was offroading and bottomed out on a rock, which pushed the exhaust up against my driveshaft. I'm used to my AWD just hooking up and going, with the FWD it did a lot of spinning when I got onto it.
Plus, I like the handling of AWD. You can push it hard, and if you push it too far, it's pretty easy to keep from crashing.
Oh, and I mean true symmetrical AWD, which as far as I know, Subaru is still the only company that has it.

I don't like FWD either... it's just something about it that feels wrong. Pretty much the only FWD car I like is the original Golf and the T2 that Zotic had

It only has one head :|
I have owned three, one was the DOHC (~150hp, they're actually very peppey) and had snapped the timing belt and was junk. It was a Plymouth Neon Expresso, with the power bulge hood and all.
Another was SOHC but it was a 5-speed. Best one I had, mint outside and in. Had a blown head gasket but still ran alright. I drove it up town once and then pulled the head off, but got offered to trade just the body for a Subaru Justy so I did. I sold the head off of it for $120 and never got paid because the guy fucked me over.
The last was a DOHC as well, auto, and it was one of my dirt track cars. I was about 17 at the time, and that season was amazing.... Nothing on the dirt could catch that little neon, if it was a manual it would have been awesome. I was actually leading in points and then my sister got into a wreck with her neon, and my dad literally forced us to move to a different track and made me forfeit my championship season. Needless to say I was fucking pissed off.
In reality, that's why I stopped racing. I was afraid I'd get good again and something would take it all away from me. It's kind of a depressing story. :/
Dad passed me his Cadillac Sedan Deville, 1988 year model, 4.5L v8.
So write me on that wall to. I'll get pic's this Saturday!

Well like i said i never got to get in it and start fixing it up, my dad saw the head was blown and it wouldn't run, so he got rid of it. I never even knew what engine it had.
I had the best Idea for this class photo. Poster size! 24x18” or 27x19" And I mean horizontal. ---
That would be cool, I would buy one.
I would, too, depending on how it looks. If it looks professional, I'd definitely spent 10 bucks on a copy and pin it to my wall, but if it's something i could throw together myself with my mediocre photoshop skills and print out as a rasterbate-type photo, then nah. I'd just do that, it would be in black and white but it would make for a nice space-taker-upper, my walls are pretty bare.

We'll see. If it looks nice i wouldn't mind investing in a copy.
If it looks good, you can sure as hell put me down for one 24x18” or 27x19" at $10.
Too late to add mine? 1996 Toyota Levin
-better pic next page-
So now that my hiatus (of being banned) is over, I can get back to this. I'll have a new graph up later.
I'd rather have a picture of the collage you're working on.
Yeah, a Wip version just to see how it will look when it's finished would be cool
my mustang!

You used to have that really nice Trans Am right? If so, did you sell it and how much did you get for it?

Yeah I still have it, but I am in the process of selling it. I am asking $7,000 for it and have a few people interested in it. A guy today test drove it but when we got back the radiator cracked open and spewed coolant all over my driveway.. (who can blame a radiator stamped 1988 though) He said he still wants it for sure though after he sells his other Trans Am. Here is a pic of it
