Bored decided to post pictures of some of my car history.
 
Tonight for some odd reason I had the urge to post up pictures of some of the former rides I have owned, I can only find pictures for a small amount of the cars but it is still fun to go down the list.

Where it all Began:
1966 Plymouth Barracuda ( This is my dads car, still in the family since 1969, my childhood has been growing up wanting to hear the side pipes roar on this car, it is now my birthright ;))
http://lh6.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE.../471629585.jpg

1987 Dodge D50 (I was 17 at the time)
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...G_0002_NEW.jpg

1988 Firebird (Getting my mullet on!)
http://lh6.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...G_0001_NEW.jpg

1987 Trans Am (ws6 baby ! Still in the semi mullet phase)
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...G_0004_NEW.jpg

1987 Mustang GT (I was 19, yep i was rollin in my 5.0, 3 tranny's later)
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...G_0007_NEW.jpg

1989 Pontiac McLaren Turbo GrandPrix (This car broke me of my domestic habit for a bit, it was fast ..when it ran)
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...G_0003_NEW.jpg

1993 Toyota Mr2 (My favorite Go cart)
http://lh5.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...G_0005_NEW.jpg

1998 Honda Prelude (My first new car, Made my record speed run from Denver CO in 10 hours from Minneapolis, I80 is that boring)
http://lh3.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...G_0006_NEW.jpg

1998 Honda Civic LX (aka the sleeper, 4 doors, 275hp, and no rice, learned alot about turbos and engine tuning, built the engine on my own, fun but definetly a civic)
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...2763864472.jpg

1969 Plymouth RoadRunner (got it for a steal and doubled my money during the mopar craze)
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...1404166535.jpg

1966 Dodge Charger (The roadrunner made money, the charger not so much)
http://lh3.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...0/DSCF0250.jpg

2003 BMW 330i Zhp (My first Bimmer, Yep, nice car, But the driver wanted more from the ultimate driving machine)
http://lh3.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE.../203225655.jpg

2003 Mitsubishi Evo 8 (My first evo, Bone stock, traded it w 29,000 miles on the clock)
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...ture%20017.jpg

2001 BMW 330xi (Got it cheap, turned it quick, before it sucked all the money out of my wallet)
http://lh6.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...ling%20005.jpg

2003 Mazda 6 (The winter beater for 2009, complete failure as a car, did not even make it the winter before total destruction of the transmission)
http://lh6.ggpht.com/_n5C760ZpvCA/TE...0/DSCF0254.JPG

Current Ride .. Best Daily Driver car ever! :) Little biased.

Oh trust me there is more of those then I wanna admit. For some reason I could only find these pictures, I lost count of the cars I owned after it went into the 60's.

Thanks for sharing, Shawn. You've told me about most of these cars but pictures help tell their stories even better.

Agreed. I love the front aero lip, and the X in silver is really growing on me.

This would make for an interesting graph of cool factor -- up, down, sideways, up, etc.

Thanks Kracka!
Aero Package at first I wasnt so sure about, but I am so glad I got it. Saved my car from rock chips and cone carnage big time.

Silver is one of those colors that doesn't get much attention, therefore it is my favorite color. Apex Silver FTW!

The D50 was a pretty cool truck, but it was starting to rust already. That truck was a blast to bust drifts with during the winter.

Bump.. New ride added to the stable for winter use, 1998 Honda CRV AWD 5spd. Needs a few odds and ends, but should be pretty solid drift buster.

*Edit: No pictures yet it was uber dark when I got it home.. I will get some quality ones when I get home.. the crv is a real beaute! I cant drive it very far yet because the upper ball joints are soo loose I am afraid they may pop.
