I'll start this off,
1973 I paid 50% old man paid 50% cost $450 all up from memory, we were living in Qld at the time.
1962 S Series Valiant got it when I was 16 & had it painted heavy Metal Flake blue, put it on a train back to Perth & TNT lost it for 3 weeks, not long after they found it I got a job in Port Hedland so drove it up there & kept it for a further 6 months & sold it for $400 to an alcoholic workmate who proceeded to write it off 3 days later
1968 XT 302 Fairmont Fully bommed, 5 yrs
1979 RS/2000 Escort (bought new) twin webbers etc 12 yrs
1977 ZH Fairlane 351 Marqise 5 yrs
1986 HJ 60 Landcruiser, Ground up resto 7 yr
1998 Libbo Current car 18 months & by far the best
At least 50 other cars that were never keepers

1997 Hyundai Sonata. Got looks but only coz it went DOOF. Its now owned by my brother who is thrashing the guts outta it and i wish i neva gave it to him.

I had the loudest stereo in a wrx in WA. Until i hit a wall.

Got my licence when i was 15yrs-then proceeded to buy a mark II cortina, which then turned into a late 60's Hilman Hunter(classic brown). Ran out of money then....4 years later...got a 1997 VR4 turbo legnum (straight out of Japan) bit like a galant but nicer and smaller. Had that for 5 years. Moved here, got my Sti and now thinking about getting something else (older WRX early 90's) to build up and destroy at the track?

My very first car.....In 1992 I bought a 1983 Toyota Sprinter aust compliance with 4AC (single cam single carby go slow motor) then lobotomized it a couple of months later & put in a 4AGZE (twin cam supercharged from a Trueno). I lowered it, zorst, air filter etc, put 15"s (they were classed as huge wheels at the time - how things have changed!) Twas lots of fun! I sold it to someone I knew, they sold it on years down the track & I later found out it ended up with another rally mate of mine. He sold it to his bro whom kept it in mint condition as I had it.

I heard recently that he then sold it to one of his friends & it has apparently gone downhill now She had a good life though & had lots of admirers as that conversion was more of a rarity than it is nowadays. I sent in a 'chick into cars' letter to Fast Fours in the early 90's & that got printed with the pic of it which was pretty cool!

The rest as they say.........is history!

Fresh paint,interior, 13B mild port, rims, suspension, etc. Had big stereo also.

Ran 14.9 which was damn good for a P plater at the time (5 years ago).

Currently resides in the hands of its 3rd owner since I got it. First guy I sold it to sold it to another guy, who slapped a 12A turbo in it. Blew it up on the dyno, rebuilt it and has now sold it to its new owner about a week ago.

Now has 18" wheels on it, and pumps out 270 at the rear wheels with a smallish turbo, which is crazy for a 1000kg car!

Had an EA Falcon to drive around for a little while (for the first 6mnths i wasnt allowed to drive without an adult...) and then i borrowed some money off my mum and bought an immaculate baby blue (really light blue) XF Falcon. I bought it with a genuine 101,00kms on the clock... 20K kms later i bought a WRX and sold it to dad for $600 as i really needed the cash to pay for several traffic offenses i racked up over a period of 4 days.

Dad later traded it in for 4k (yeh, 4 thousand..) about 8mnths ago on hiw MY00 WRX...

Used huge amounts of fuel, handled crap and went slow but it was the best car i will ever own.

First car was a 95 Honda Civic, i didnt care much about cars at first, so i bought a fuel friendly car. Then started getting into imports and after a few weeks i bought a Nissan Onevia, had quite a few mods and was mainly setup for drift (not that i could). Been through one more owner since i sold. Still miss it!

3rd: 92 Eb Falcon 5spd 4.0L
