Well, from 16 i've always owned american cars..... my first car was a 71 pontiac lemans, then came a 83 pontiac grand prix (w/ only 28k!!). they were swell and all but i started to get the speed itch and picked up my first "pretty fast" car, a 80 chevy camaro z28. it had a 400 small block chevy bored .030, edelbrock intake, carb, and valve covers, and a ok sized cam. i cruised that around for a while and then picked up my first race car, a 74 chevy nova. i bought it off my buddy for next to nothing to get it out of his driveway and i fell in love with it. it had a 355 w/ 11:1 comp, .500 lift cam, edelbrock intake, holly 650, built trans, ect... after a while i started to dump a ton of money into it, 3 exhaust systems (ended up with 3" with 40 series flowmasters and dumps before the rear), a rear (moser axles, eaton posi, 4.11 richmond gears, and a moser alum. diff. cover), bigger cam (.565 intake, i think), bigger intake (edelbrock victor jr. ported), weld prostars (15x3.5 front, 15x8 rear), and some other things i cant remember right now. i sold the 80 z28 and picked up a 86 z28 5-speed from another buddy of mine and used it as a daily driver. then came the day that gas prices started to skyrocket and i had no more money to spend on any of my cars and i sold off all of them (still kicking myself for it) and picked up my 01 mitsubishi eclipse spyder gs

i drove it bone stock for a while and loving to gas mileage, then i tinted the windows, put a muffler on it, and lowered it with cheapo coilovers. then came a set of rims, and some body work
