Hand me the keys...I'm driving away in this one

This morning on my to work, I tried remembering all the vehicles I've owned over the years. Here's the list from the earliest on, give or take one or two.

1) 1979 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser Braugham that my dad sold to me (olive green station wagon - aka the mean, green cruisin' machine with the obligatory fake wood paneling)

2) 1977 Toyota Celica GT (my all-time favourite car!)

3) 1984 Honda Accord

4) 1982 Toyota Starlet (a gift from mom)

5) 1989 Kawasaki Ninja 750

6) 1991 Toyota Tercel (my first new car)

7) 1986 Yamaha Radian 600

8) 1976 Cadillac Hearse (yeah, yeah, you guys know I'm strange)

9) 1974 Cadillac Hearse (some call it an obsession)

10) 1996 Hyusung 125cc (my way around in Seoul)

11) 1989 Pontiac Tempest (sleek black exterior with plush, bordello-red interior. Was lovingly baptised B-FAB by Stuart and Suzy)

12) 1986 Honda VFR Interceptor 750 (the wrist injury bike)

13) 1982 Ford Escort (The Red Rocket)

14) 1987 Toyota Corolla SR5

15) 1989 Mazda 323 (one of my favourite) cars

16) 2001 Hyundai Accent GSi (another one of my favourite cars to drive

17) 1984 Mercedes 300D (first bought by my grandfather, then my dad, then sold to me)

18) 2006 Hyundai Tucson (certainly not a gas guzzler like Stuart and Suzy's Subaru!)

19) ... (my dream car)

If I had to settle for a minivan, at least it would look something like this http://members.lycos.nl/Vorden/pics/espaceg.jpg

You mean the Red Bucket as it was later baptized... What a car! Driving it made testosterone oooze from your pores.

I came across your pic of your 91 Toyota Tercel. Well it's currently being restored. It really has to be yours cause bondo was done in exact same spots as pic shows damage. This is strange but awesome. Thanks:)
