That's an average of two cars per year since you were 16. I think you should contact The Guiness Book of World Records!

Ya see a pattern here. It's a complicated story of handme downs and family traditions..... My father drove Buicks (now owns a C-5...he finally grew 'down') my father-in-law worked for Delco in Rochester NY..home of the Rochester carb and such.

Me and my oldest. She LOVES the car and has been to all the meets...notice the shirts!

I guess its time to join the parade.

My name is John. 58 years old. Art Director/Educational television.

Here is a partial list of the 53 cars I have owned. Notice as I got older the need for under hood muscle started to wane... I finally learned that performance is much more than cubic inches

1960 Chrysler 300F hardtop, 413/375, twin 4 bbl.
1965 Mustang GT, 289/271 4 speed
1965 Impala Super Sport hardtop, 327/300
1966 Corvette coupe, 427/450, 4 speed, big tank
1966 Chevelle SS396/375
1967 Corvette coupe, 327/350, 4 speed
1967 Impala Super Sport hardtop, 396/325
1969 Plymouth Barracuda 340
1969 Triumph TR6
1969 Corvette coupe, big tank, 427/390
1969 Dodge Daytona 440/375
1970 Ford Thunderbird Coupe 429
1972 Ford Torino Gran Sport fastback, 351
1971 Corvette coupe, 350/370
1973 Corvette coupe, 350/250
1974 Corvette coupe, 454/270
1975 Datsun 280Z
1976 Chevrolet Cosworth Monza
1978 Monte Carlo Supercharged
1985 Honda CRX Si, Mugen
1987 Honda CRX Si, Mugen
1988 Honda CRX Si, Mugen
1989 Honda Inspire EXi (Canadian Spec Accord)
1993 Corvette ZR1
1997 Subaru Legacy GT
1992 Subaru SVX
1996 Subaru SVX

1996 Mazda Miata (wife's)
1997 Subaru Legacy GT (wife’s)
(2002 Outback VDC sedan (wife's)
2002 Outback VDC wagon (wife's)
2009 Subaru Forester (wife's)
2010 Subaru Outback (wife's)
2014 Hyundai Elantra Limited (wife’s)




In retrospect, he only one I wish I would have kept was the 1966 Corvette coupe. It was Silver Pearl with silver leather interior and the 36 gallon tank. Unknown to me at the time, there were only 66 big tanks sold in 1966 and the price for them today is astronomical!









I never filled that tank up completely for three reasons:

When street racing out in California in the 60's, 36 gallons was a lot of weight to have to haul around. (My biggest nemesis was the 1969 Mustang Mach 1 429)

If I ever got into an serious accident (heaven forbid) in a fiberglass car with a 36 gallon tank full of high-octane... can you say "shiny Molotov cocktail"?

But the most practical reason was: On a Saturday night I could find better things to do with a $10.00 bill than spend it on a full tank of gas

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.
