I was having a conversation with a fellow forum member about previous cars, he had some cool cars. I've had some Fords in my time, mostly Falcons. Like my present car I've modified them from standard to get a bit more performance from them. I'll list out all of the cars below, it all started around 1979, showing my age!
HD Holden XA Falcon 500 XD Falcon S Pack XR Falcon 200ci - put a 250ci in it then turbocharged it, quick as the GT VH Valiant XA Falcon GT 4 door manual, girlfriend at the time smashed it, rebuild it. TA 22 Celica - shared with girlfriend Suzuki Mightboy - shared with girlfriend XB Falcon GT 4 door V8 Capri - Sat in backyard then sold it, never drove it 302ci XD Falcon ESP 351 4 speed TE Cortina Ghia TC Cortina 250ci - 2v head 450cfm 4 barrel cam V6 Capri x 2 Mazda 808 wagon Ford Capri Verde Mazda 323 Toyota Coralla Seca Ford Laser Lynx ED Falcon XR8 Daihatsu Charade Daihatsu Charade with Air Cond Mazda 323 Mazda 626 EF Falcon XR6 Ford little Korean 2 door, forget name - wife's car Nissan Pulsar Plus- wife's car AU Falcon XR6 - Supercharged that!

Craig, you have had some ripper cars.
What do think maybe members could post 1 or 2 pics of there old cars in your thread. many of us would love to have a look at a blast from the past, and the young ones may laugh.
