Default Post pics of your "other" cars

I would like to start a thread where you can post pics of your other cars that you own.

I am new here, and don't actually own a Scion presently, but I will have a shiny new XA very soon. I will make sure to update this post when I get it. My cousin owns one, and he let me drive it, the second I sat in it, I knew this was the car to buy.

Technicly this isn't my "other" car just yet, untill I get the Scion. It is my daily driver until then. I CAN'T WAIT TO GET MY NEW CAR!

The car is a 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT 5-speed with a 3800SC V6 swap. Custom paint, 18's and dropped 2" ans a ton more mods. I did EVERYTHING on this car my self, minus the paint, but I did pull all th panels off it. Here are a few pics of my baby...

and the 3800SC sitting in the back

You can check out the ENTIRE build of the engine here

Here is also a vid of my car from some guy in a GST a few months back, I didn't know him. he said his car ran low 12's, and I belive him, because I was bearly pullng on him. Definitly a respectable time for a 4cyl.

Lets see all your other cars that you own besides your Scions.

wow. that must pull like a BIATCH.

I love it. Fiero's are often overlooked in the car enthusiast world, but that's great.

Mad props on that Fiero!! That thing is SICK. I've thought about building a Fiero with an LS1 or 350 swap before, but that thing just changed my mind. SWEET CAR.

Any word on power figures, or track times?

P.S. I wouldn't call that "barely pulling" on that Eclipse. You pulled him pretty hard.

This is a pic of my "project" car that I tinker with on the weekends. At the moment, it is a very unreliable, unsafe car, but when that rotary is running and gets wound up....it is so much fun.

Thanks for the props, much appreciated.

I don't have any official numbers, but compairing my setup with others, I should be in the 325-350 wheel hp range. The car should be able to dip into the 11's to, but im not sure yet. I am kinda hesitant to bring it to the track, I have alrerady broke 3 axels so far.

Blackbelt, that is definitly considerd a "fleet" of cars, nice cars you have there. The VW you have there... I use that radiator for my IC radiator, fits great up front in the Fiero.

My fleet includes...

86 Pontiac Fiero GT
87 Pontiac Fiero GT
88 Chevy Astro Van(hauling beater)
90 Buick Century(Beater)
02 Chevy Impala
95 Chevy Cavalier (aka the skittle)
85 Linginfelter Corvette
04 Honda 1800 VTX bike

When I do get the Scion, this will be the first import car that will be in my family, never owned anything but american cars. I guess because my dad has been a GM mechanic for over 30 years.

I havent gotten my xA yet, but this is till my "other" car because i got another daily too.

Here's my show car. 1985 Chevy Celebrity (its my "grandma" car). Tons of stuff on this: airbags, rims, new paint, pinstriping, custom boxes and amp rack, pinstriping, window etching...




And here is what I been driven, selling it to help with the xA payments. 1991 Buick Regal.


And just for fun...Imma throw up my bicycle. Its sort of a vehicle. Custom paint, pinstriping, and mural on this...



What yall think?
