No cars, only my Z and my brothers Caprice with a 305 engine. But I do have a 125cc water cooled go kart that I made myself using a 100cc air cooled basis. Top speed is 115 km/h ( automatic ).

1 of the 280z in the garage.

Carl,

Great looking SLK.......start a fund for the speeding tickets

Hi Randy:

Thanks - I may have to do that - The SLK is so smooth it is easy to creep up beyond 80 mph on the freeways - and not notice the speed. Also just too much fun to kick the supercharger in around 50/60 mph and let're rip up past 100.. Not that the car is so fast - just fun for a 2.3L.. Really kind of tempting to drop a SBC in it aka Brabas -

That Bronco looks amazing - very rarely see any of the small Bronco's offered for sale, unless they are total disasters. Maybe a "Big Oly" replica in the future to go with it?

This 240z - 73 2 owner car landed in my garage in Sweden last week.

F54 block/e88 head and early su's. Almost free from rust.

Great looking car Moelk. I love the deep dish appliance wheels! Looks to have some lowering springs on it and CA tags. Was this car on Craigslist or Ebay? Seems like I remember a car just like this or similar to it for sale not too long ago. Would love to hear the back story on it.

Thank you Hardway.

I bought the car in Chico Ca last november. A friend in Sacramento made the deal for me. The car were on craigslist and with only a home number to call. I tryied to call for two weeks with no luck. My friend Leif in Sacramento then got a hold of him. The owner was around 55 years and had owned the car for 15 years and was the second owner.

7 years ago the car was stripped and got new paint and carpet.

Today the paint has some chips and a couple of smal cracks on the roof but nothing big. There are no rust on the car. The dash has some cracks as most of these car has. The one bad thing was that the original seats were missing (a couple of courbeau seats were in the car), but i found a pair in San Fran that i got shipped to Leif in Sacramento.

Then i placed an order at Msa that inc 15 konig rewinds, tokico illumina and springs, ceramic brakepads and shoes and brakelines and some more stuff.

I waited for the winter to end here in Sweden before i got the car shipped from LA. But for some reson the car got stuck in LA for 11 weeks before they put it on the ship. And then it took 5 weeks to cross the sea.

But now i am very happy and thrilled to drive it. Im hoping to pass all controls in about 3 weeks.

I think the car already is lowered so the tokicokit i bought will stay in the garage along with the konigs for now. I think the 14" thats on now looks very good.

I just need to get hold of some fender mirrors and put the Subaru sti diff in and im there./ Andreas

Despite my love for Z's, I just put a mint condition 1997 Porsche Boxster in the garage. 46K miles, silver in color.

The thing corners like it's on rails. And the mid-range power band is utterly stupendous. I love the ergonomics, and especially how the seat moves up and forward simultaneously, which, along with a telescoping steering wheel, makes finding a perfect driving position easy

Probably my only "complaint" is the exhaust note is a bit tame. If anything this vehicle is a little TOO refined.

The seller spent 30 minutes with me showing me how to put the softtop up/down, take on/off the hardtop, various controls, etc. That's something you never have to do with a Toyota or American car, give INSTRUCTION on it to a new buyer. This included a fuse-based wire doo-dad (built from plans downloaded from the Internet) that will conceivably allow me to open the front trunk should the battery ever go completely dead; a major oversight on Porsche's design, leaving an owner utterly UNABLE to access the trunk where the battery itself is located for purposes of charging and/or replacement.

The engine is invisible; supposedly by removing the soft top I can see the TOP of the engine in order to change the air filter or add some obscure fluid (power steering? brake?) if ever necessary. Access to the (oil) dipstick and coolant reservoir is in the rear trunk, windshield washer fluid in the front. And not enough room in either for a set of golf clubs. Apparently this car is for driving, not for golfing or antique shopping.

(Even my first generation MR-2 had a decent rear trunk; the only thing it couldn't haul was a medium-sized framed picture; yet I regularly hung my surfboard out the sunroof!)

After a spirited drive home along La Posta road I gotta say, "Wow." This is some sports car."

I love my 280ZX. It's fun and (mine in particular) truly has character. But the Boxster, 20 years newer, is in a whole different ballpark. It may not be a "supercar" along the lines of an NSX, but, wowzer, it's truly fun to drive.

Very cool, glad you like it. I've always had a soft spot for the Boxster, even though I haven't liked 911s since they went to water-cooled engines.

944, 928, Boxster - I'd love to own any of them.

1966 VW Beetle - Gutted and in pieces waiting for the Z to get finished.

1972 Datsun 240Z almost complete (Though I have been saying that for 3 years now but this time I mean it..Really...)

1978 Chevrolet Step-Side Truck - Restored and Customized. (My first vehicle)

2001 PT Cruiser LT Loaded with all options except engine heater and probably going to receive a chop top or converted into a coupe with a trunk, rear wheel drive and Hemi engine (Confirmed that it will fit).

2003 Harley Davidson Sportster 883XLH 100th anniversary edition with Gold Key Package. (14 test miles on it only)

2005 Saturn Vue (Wifes Car and weekend family hauler)

2008 Chevrolet HHR - Daily Driver for my 96 Mile Round trip commute.
