    Man, I wish I could find another Deutschland shield like the one on the back window. On the right you can barely see the "D" sticker like the one I currently have on my legacy.

    I put a black bumper on it w/ fogs!)

    rebuit the motor, then traded it in for the GT.

    no pics.


    78 bmw 320i- had a bunch of suspension goodies from the PO, a bmw mech, but it was my first car and i didn't fully appreciate how good it was. Had to rebuild the engine prior to driving it. Wrecked it while playing.

    82 dodge 1500 conversion van- super fun if it was a 2nd car. With 3sp manual and a 130hp v6, it got 20mpg and 0-60 in.... 26 seconds. No joke. Sold.

    88 mitsu starion- another car i had to completely rebuild before driving, it was quite fast but the shot suspension made it kind of scary. I ran out of money, so i traded it for a BBK and some money.

    A couple little toyota pickups (22r vintage)- fun little trucks that handled pretty well. Totally gutless. All sold and then stripped/heavily modified
    by buyers.

    Is that a European Escort? I envy you. As for my previous (and current additional) cars...
    My first, a 1992 Saab 900S 5MT (Sold):

    My second, a 1987 Ford Escort EXP Sport Coupe (Sold two weeks ago):

    My third, a 1992 Ford Taurus SHO 5MT (Still own, daily drive):

    My fourth, a 1990 Mazda Miata (Still own, STS2 autocross car):

    And my fifth, the 1995 Legacy L AWD Wagon:

    1998 Jeep Wrangler Sahara

    It was pretty fast, didn't have a whole lot of performance mods though (spintech exhaust, headers, ram-air from side scoop). It had a 2.8L V6, and yes it handled amazingly. I actually got that car for free. The day before my senior year of high school I was rear-ended in my Integra. The damage didn't look very bad but it was upwards of $4,000 to fix. So I fixed it in my buddies garage one night for free and bought the Fiero with the insurance money! 8)

    sweet, I found a picture of our old corolla 4wd!


    I helped my dad paint everythig below the pinstriping. Matches really well for being red! I wish I still had that car for a winter beater, but it was so rusted out it was just too much work.

    I don't have pics but...

    $400 '76 Buick Skylark -V8 power - V8 gas mileage

    Mazda 323 - took a beating and just kept running. Ran on 3 cylinders for over a year until I finally got another car.

    VW Golf - P.O.S.!!!!

    '95 Honda Civic - reliable car.

    '01 Dodge Stratus ES - don't know what I was thinking, ok car but kept her for only a year and a half.

    '01 Focus ZX3 - Fun car, modded her to 160hp. Then the curse of Ford took over and had lots of issues.

    Now I have the LGT.

    For project cars I got a '86 Jetta GLI that turned out to have a ton of rot.
    Then I bought a '86 Merkur XR4TI, which I'm working on now.
    '98 Legacy GT sedan
    '86 Merkur XR4Ti

    PICS!!!!!!!!!! My dad had a merkur XR, I believe it was an 87. It was white, had a cosworth grill, double spoiler in the back (not a whale tail, but the stock XR double spoiler), it had some american racing mesh wheels (BBS replicas that American Racing was sued over, and hence took off the market). I have no idea what mods he had under the hood, but he sold it, along with my brother's black XR which they never got running right (the previous owner blew out the turbo the day they were going to buy it, but my dad had an extra motor, so they thought it was ok). Anyway, my dad saw some smoke coming out the back of the white one one day, got scared, sold both cars for $3k, the new owners dyno'ed the white merkur of my dad's and it had 272lb.ft of torque and 250horse power at the wheels. The thing was a rocket. I'll see if he has any pictures of it he can load to the computer. I have always wanted a merkur like my dads, such an unknown turbo gem (even if they are a nickel and dimer most of the time), and horrible in rain/snow.


    Oh, and since my truck pics above don't work, here you go:
