Ive been into cars for many decades.
I started with my 1970 GTO in 1987. During that time my friends and I did dirt track racing. We built several cars for that. Then I started buying junkers and putting them back on the road....then selling them.
That turned to building old muscle cars back to their original shape. Which usually involved sourcing very hard to find parts. That was the best part of it.....other than finding some old "barn finds".
My current daily driver is a 600hp 2014 BMW M4 that ive "tweeked" a bit. :)
I'll get some pictures up soon of some muscle cars. Here's the BMW.

Absolutely gorgeous!! Very soon I might be able to share a practically impossible restoration, the car looks brand new , no matter where you look.

Does Matchbox count? Not that I have any x)

Just got a new Lexus for my wife. A crap load of new tech.

Back in 80s my Olds had HUD (Head Up Display). Basically, the windshield reflects dashboard info. Like fighter planes. I haven't seen any other cars with HUD until on this new car. Neat.

I don't collect cars. I ride them into ground.

I don't have pics on the phone except for one. I'll try and get some up. I've posted pictures in the past but they're buried deep in the forum. Ok, not counting daily drivers or the truck. Currently owned:
1971 Chevy Nova
1970 Porsche 911T
1986 Porsche 911 Carrera
1988 Porsche 911 Carrera
1987.5 Porsche 928S

Changed the Fuchs for steelies. I like the old school look.
