1984 Chevy Camaro, Berlinetta trim package complete with digital dashboard. Mine only had a 2.8 V6, which was probably a good thing.
(picture from google, but mine was identical)

in '96 I bought for it $100 since it was not running, and fixed it in 1 afternoon. Drove the hell out of it for about 2 years.

I miss that car.

1968 Buick Special bought when I was 15 (3 months before my 16th).
At age 17 I bought a 69 chevelle SS (396)
At 18 I bought a 71 Buick Electra 225 (mine had the black interior)

None of the pictures are the actual cars.....but very close. All were awesome rides.

First car was a 1965 Mercury Comet, 6 cylinder automatic. It became a Flintstone's car - holes in the floor! Upon high school graduation I received a 1971 Comet, again 6 cylinder automatic.

This past fall I purchased a 1976 Comet but it now has a 450 HP Ford Racing 427 crate engine with a 5 speed.

I have more sentimental memories of my past and present bikes. I'd give my left arm to get my Norton back.

69 Mustang Grande Coupe With the Vinyl top removed and Painted. A much better look than the old black vinyl top. Got it in 1982 when I was 17
302 with a 3 speed manual on the floor. Damn you could run out 1st and 2nd forever before hitting 3rd. Sure do miss the damn thing.

This isn't my first vehicle, but it's my first one with only two wheels! I received this as a gift last week. Now I just need a license, a helmet, and a tattoo...

You will probably want to keep that in the matching samsonite suit cases where you can store your emergency survival kit in the event it breaks down on a deserted highway out in the middle of nowhere. I think they call that a bagger?

Owned this car for 2 years and was in the shop 18 times for many different things. Finally gave up and sold it. I miss driving that thing. It was beautiful.
