1970 Chevy C10. Bought it with a 250ci 6 popper and a truck 4 speed. Sold it with a 350hp 350 that I built. I bought an unassembled but machined short block and rounded up all the other parts. Also did a 4" drop. Had to sell it, couldn't afford to drive it 40 miles one way to work.:(

I feel for your dad. I learned to drive on a '73 chevy K5 Blazer with the 4 speed manual(granny low), Only used the Granny for hauling. It was nickel and diming me when I was in school. Yea it had huge rust patches over the wheels. but it was known al over the San Jose area. The replacement was a '93 S-10 4X4 with the vortec 4.3 and a 5 speed manual. I wanted to lift it but only got to put on 30" Big Foot AT. Then the x-snatch said we need a better family car, you can get a truck next time. Selling both of them was lame.:(

'72 Chevy Nova - 350 engine, Weber carb, centerline rims, sway bars, headers, custom exhaust, Muncie 4 speed, posi-trac diff.

I bought the car when I graduated high school, from my buddy that joined the Army. It was their bone stock family car, and another buddy helped me fix it up. That car hauled azz!

Wasn't mine, was my Grandparents. It was an old Impala. I don't even remember what year it is. I need to find some pics so you guys can help me figure it out... anyhow.... my Grandparents sold it to get a freaking Mercury Topaz! I wanted to buy that car from them so bad when I turned 16. When they sold it, it was either in 84 or 86, it had like 30,000 ( I know a bit more) miles on it. Had the original everything in it. The interior was mint, paint mint. My Grandparents kept it immaculate! My Grandma named it Betsy. She used to hit the speed bumps going fast so the car would bounce cuz I found that really funny. I guess I was easily amused as a kid? That car, just will always make me think of them. I wish I still had it now out of they are both gone... and that really is my first memory of them, driving around in that car...

I regret selling my '84 Cutlass for $1100. The car was a POS but the Chevy 350 I put in it was great! Hell I had $450 into the heads alone!:(

Not me but a old employer regrets not buying a used 427 AC Cobra for 4000$ I think he said the car was two years old.
Then he bought a Bug instead.

I bought off the showroom floor in Farmington for $ 3850.00 a brand new blue 1969 Camero with 425 HP aluminum headed L88 396, TH350 and Pansonic 8-Track tape deck.

Damn, I loved that car ... :(

I had an 86 Buick Century Wagon that I wish I still had. I could really use it for carrying stuff, plus I wanted to convert it to RWD and drop a V8 in it someday!

my 4-banger, hose out vinyl interior'ed, no a/c, 4-speed screaming red, inside and out 1985 Chevy S-10 Blazer. The vehicle that friends andfamily knew as the Blazer of Glory, of just the BoG. The truck I sincerely tried to pound into the ground but could never kill. It just took all the punishment I could dish out and asked for more.
<sniff> and I sold it for a measly $1300.
I loved that truck.

all of em :(

'72 Bronco was set to go mud racing when I bought it and I didn't know anything about rigs then. Didn't have the $$ to learn at the time either.

68 Camaro (totalled not sold) every sunny day I wish I had that car.

My dad had a 62 Corvette that was suppose to be passed on, he sold it and bought a Harley.

Two of 'em.:mad:

'66 GTO - 389 Tri-power and a '71 Cutlass Supreme I put a '70 W30 455 into.

Both totally badazz!

2 of'em!

Sold my '69 AMX 390 and replaced it with a 1972 4 door POS Chevy that the kids would fit in. Almost cried over that one!

Worst was my '63 Ford F250 with a 390. That rig hauled all the beer up the Fordyce trail for our booth at Sierra Trek II and III, survived countless trips into Spider and made one complete trip across the 'Con. Sold it because I had too many vehicles. I offered to buy it back for twice what I got for it but the guy told me to pound sand. I did cry when that one went away.

1979 Datsun 620 Bullet-side.
Had a 300zx engine in it and ran the quarter at just over 10seconds.

It looked like this.

76 FJ40 with a 4-bolt 350 bored .060 over, balanced, Downey fenderwell headers, 650 CFM carb, rollcage, racing seats, lifted, NO FUCKING RUST... bastard I sold it to painted it with a Wagner Power Painter (what a total fucking moron)....

80 Porsche 931 (924 Turbo to the unwashed) had a aftermarket wastegate and a dry-sump oiler for the turbo. Clean, FAST, nice, and a money pit.

1977 Toyota Celica... beat the living piss out of that car and it always ran, never got washed, 30mpg.. beaters are cool.

1978 Austin Mini
I loved that little scooter. She wadn't fast but she was lots of fun. :D

Sometimes I wish I still had my '99 Crown Victoria but I don't regret selling it. Everything else that I wanted to keep I still own.

66 'vette.

Wasn't mine, it was my parents' before I came along. The car left with my father shortly before I was born, and I have never seen either of them....

65' Chevy Corvair 110. I don't know why, It reallt was a POS, but it was MY POS.:flipoff2:

I've never sold a car. I always beat them to death :D

Mark had a '70 Cuda (not a barracuda) that was all kinds a hopped up... sold it for like $1200 several years ago. Every time he talks about that car he almost cries :( I told him I'd buy him another one someday but he said it's just not the same... he wants THAT one. I don't know if I can find it :(

I've always wanted a 140 Corsair, hell I'm the only person in my family who hasn't ownd a Corvair, everyone else has owend at least two or three. Dad was a Chevy mechanic so he could get them cheap and fix 'em up. I started driving during the Vega administration, that car only being 7 years old cost me a grand total of $50 with a cracked block, dad built me an engine for it and it was driven for another 7 years untill it got so rusty it almost broke in half when dad was driving to work one day.:laughing:

'57 VW bug. We were the second owner. The first owner won it in a sales promotion for Crest toothpaste (and kept it until 1985).

It was completely original except for the paint.

69 Chevelle, 350, 350turbo, 2000 stall, All new suspension, paint, rubber, Lowered, Crager SS's, BFG's. Kicked the sh!t out of mustangs all day long.

83 Toyota, 3in lift, 33's flexed like a mofo.

74 Charger SE, rebuilt from a stripped body with no engine and 3 other Chargers. Many RT parts. found a stock 318 to go under the hood then bored it out and sleeved it to 390. Whopping 8 mpg...

1967 PLYMOUTH VALLIANT 273 ci. V8 clean little car
1979 TOYOTA LANDCRUISER FJ40 :(

not mine, but ones my dad sold...

in 1967 he bought a used 66 mustang from Hertz rent a car, it was black with gold racing stripes and a 4 speed, sold it in 68 when he joined the navy (the black and gold made it a Shelby GT350H, of which almost none were 4 speeds)

he also had and sold a 1957 ford skyliner (retractable hardtop) and a 51 stude convertible...:(

My Jeep, which is currently being parted out :(

Beutifull green 77 Ford f150 4x4

lead to string of bad decisions.

bought when I was 14, first project. Built new motor (429 with nice heads and all the bells and whistles- 410hp 540ftlbs). Re-did the interior with custom dash, all new gauges. And so on and so on. Wonderful truck, the most bad ass sound I have ever heard. Spent two years and every penny I earned building it. took over 6k in the end. Told myself I would never sell it. Took it out in the woods one time, lost oil pressure. Re- did the bottom end that night with all new bearings, and traded it for a Heep CJ7 with a 350.

Traded the CJ for an XJ- Bad move. Beat the hell out of the XJ. Drove Subaru wagon- XJ as trail rig. Sold both and bought the Toyota Pickup I have now. All in a matter of 1 year.

81 camaro for sale now.i wont sell it locally cause i wont be able to keep from trying to get it back.ran 1/4 11.99. also my 87 dodge dakota.it was 2wheel drive but in highschool days it was the burn out machine.line locks on the speed bumps at school every morning.:D

1988 Mazda 929...200 horse rear wheel drive luxo sedan :(

1989 Jeep Comanche....damn I miss that thing. Need to get another after I garduate.

Still wish I had my '78 280Z, the kid I sold it to pretty much destroyed it within the month:(
http://www.cj7jeep.com/history/images/78_Z_sm.jpg

Second one...I REALLY kick myself for selling...
A 1969 J-3000 Buick 350, 13k orginal miles, when I got the truck it still had the nylon tires on it...it was basicly a new truck, just had been sitting inside for 25+ years, man I wish I had that truck.
http://www.cj7jeep.com/history/images/glad_j3000.jpg

My brothers 1987 Buick Grand National.The thing looked like a boat untill the turbo spooled.People would laugh there ass off when you asked if they wanted to race.10 second 1/4 miles are fun with daily driver.

Only vehicle i regret losing was my Suzuki GS1000G. Didn't sell it, i had it taken out from under me one day in L.A. destroying it. :(
