heres my two first cars

93 chevy blazer-it wasnt the most nimble thing in the world but it had the nice lil 190 hp vortec motor in it
traded it in to get my old t/a

91 dodge stealth es-here was the first fun car....picked it up for free from a buddy and it ran like a free car should...fixed it a bit to drive but it just wasnt right so i stored it and eventually sold it to my cousin for 350$ heh im a bastard i know

222hp equals about 30 hp when you have a 3700 pound fwd car.......with an auto

Here's big red, its a '90 GMC Sierra that my dad bought new and gave it to me when I turned 16 (only 18 now) and we slowly built it up to this (the only pic I have of it on my computer) Then I bought the Z28 for college but I still have it today and drive it when I'm wrenching on the Z.

Damn, some of yall has some crappy *** cars. I did it right! Saved up and bought a camaro for a first car. Yea it was a V6 A4, but I loved it!!! I really though about doing an LS1/T56 swap.



Then of course, I bought my TA cheap to fix up the way I wanted it to look. I had both cars for like 6 months and I had just turned 18. I was in heaven with 2 kick *** cars in the driveway.

My first car was a black 94 trans am (non-gt model) that had a rebuilt title from Georgia. I wish I could get some of the original pics from my parents house. I had it for a long time and added ram air hood, uplevel spoiler and had it painted bright silver metallic. Here is what it looked like in silver form:




Here it is with my current car when i had them both for a while:

my first car was my 91 blazer which I still own and am working on. Got it when I was 17 till the engine blew at 300,000 miles. Threw a 350 in it. Then lowered it. Then bagged the front. Then the back. Then I bodydropped it. And that's where I'm at with it right now.

2 years ago

Mine was the same year, same color, same engine. Blew the engine twice and the tranny once. Ended up putting a hilborn scoop through the hood though... Looked nice.
