My first car was a 1986 Mercury Grand Marquis with a 5.0L I got for $200. The exhaust fell off the car and I couldn't get it fixed so I pretty much ran open headers for the 8 months I drove it.
After that I got a 1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse GS
Then a 1991 Mitsubishi Eclipse GSX
Then a 1998 Ford Ranger XLT
Then a 1989 Honda CRX Si
Then a 1986 Chevy Camaro Z28
Then a 1969 Volkswagen Bug
Then I got the CRX back
And I just currently got a 1985 Ford F250 for free cause the front end is toast....simple $300 fix so meh.
I guess I have a lot of cars... I have 2 parts Eclipses and a 90 Civic hatch too but I never drove those jus used the parts
