My daily driver, 71 Sport Suburban, Lots of mods on this one as it is my first car that I learned to drive in it. Was my mom's before I got it. It looks like a 70 Sport Suburban on purpouse. I also have another 70 Sport Suburban for parts.

I drive it daily because My wife and I are building her car. When it is done I will redo the wagon and it will finally get painted.

This is her 71 Chevelle before we took it apart. This is back in 2002.

This is her car recently.

And here is our other car. I bought this new in 1999. It is an S10 Xtreme with a few mods and a V6. We love this truck and it has served us well. She drives it daily and we use it on the weekends. It now has 186k on it.

My project car, a 91 Isuzu impulse rs. 1 of 800 imported to this side of the pond (Canada, north America, south America).

It has a slew of mods done to it and is going through the body work and such now.

The current mechanical stage is getting custom grind cams with higher lift and longer duration and good for mid range power. Also in the works is a dual stage boost controller and a snow performance water/methanol injection.

The body work is almost done. Shaved the door locks, antenna, drip rails, and cut out the rust/welded in. The welding is done and now all that's left is grinding the welds smooth and finishing the body work. The bumpers and side skirts will be custom.

Here are the welds as of last night.

Hey Roger, how does that Hemi do on gas?

Seriously, I know the V6 is a great MPG car, but if I go with a Charger (thinking, thinking) I want a Hemi. I get about 23 mpg with my Lincoln on my daily commute which is 2/3 freeway, 1/3 surface street.

Thats not usual here in Finland that we have only American cars!

My daily driver is a 1999 Ford Explorer XLT 142,000 miles. I'd bought it used last January for 3500 bucks been a great truck. All thats been done since i'd owned it is general maintance. The only problem i have with it is it makes a clattering noise at idle but other than that she runs like a clock.

We have 3 cars at the moment, we use to have more BUT got rid of them

Daily Driver, the scoop (yes it works) on the bonnet lets cool air in to help keep tempreture down as the motor has extractors fitted and it did get rather warm under the bonnet.

Given to us by a close friend who won it in a raffle and didn't want it, he already had one. This is an M Code Skyline GTR.

The leyland P76 was used as a rally car but is now used as a photographic car when we go out and take photos of trucks, the lights R only used in very dark spots where extra lighting is needed.

Two of these cars live in our none garage backyard the other one resides in a special area under lock and security guard.
