About me and my passion for cars

I have loved cars since I was a little kid....I started out collecting Hot Wheels /Matchbox cars..I had a great collection. My favorite being a 1968 Firebird. As I got older I wanted a Trans Am after my Uncle purchased one... it was red and awesome. My Dad let me drive his Riveria-- it was sleek and fast. I got it taken away about 6 mths into driving it.. caught me "laying drag" My first car i owned was an AMC Spirit..it was black looked like the AMX but was the 6 banger version, next I bought a brand new 1985 Trans Am.... I loved that car....lost it in a divorce...but i purchased a 1992 Thunderbird SC kept it only 6mths it was a lemon- got an Explorer and a 1985 380 SL- red- let the wind blow through my hair.. I was hooked ..lost it in a divorce...bought a 2000 Mustang convertible, 2003 Mustang GT convertible, 2007 Mustang GT, I've had lot of cars in between. My boyfriend bought his TA after we started dating....we are both car crazy...that is a good thing

My first car

1968 Buick Riveria- really it was my Dad's toy--- but he let me drive it until I could buy my own car-----actually it was an 1980 AMC Spirit..it looked good--but was a 6 banger I got to order it to my specs

Car I wish I still had

1968 Riveria.. my 1985 Trans Am- bought it off the show room floor....black w/ all the bells and whistles..

My dream car

I have it now...always wanted an older Mustang..but when I saw the retro was coming out I had to have it.
