Whoa! Some great cars. An F-Type! That has to be the newest hot rod here. If you're lucky, maybe she'll let you RIDE in it sometime! IF you're lucky. If she does, we'll look forward to your full report. Aston Martin, very nice. Don't get it too close to the box blade!

The Eclipse brings back memories. I had a '90 Eclipse 4WD turbo, the thing was a rocket. I did some autocrossing with it and hoped to do some rallying. These cars were winning rallies at that time. But then the rains came, poured down L.A.'s Sepulveda pass and filled the underground garage in which it was parked, quietly ending its days as a functioning machine. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

So far the award has to go to the Cavalier. Don't think many of us have driven one of those! I'm guessing that was a pretty good car, except for the steering wheel being on the wrong side, of course. If I understand correctly, it was related to the German Opel Ascona, which was a very good car.

I got to go for a ride in this bad boy, not exactly a car but very sporty. That's me sitting in a made-up jump seat of a P-51 Mustang. I always admired the guys who fought in WWII and flew these planes and had read a lot about it. It was so exciting taxiing out, I think tears came to my eyes. What a machine!

The Camaro looks like just the thing for those warm summer nights we're starting to see. Would like to see the truck. Looks like there's one with some nice patina next to the Camaro. Where did you have the Cavalier. I'm not an expert on license plates, but those do not look like they were issued by the Commonwealth of Virginia.

No photo of the Regal? You're almost at the 300,000-mile mark, which is quite a milestone, though it may take awhile to get there if you're only going a quarter-mile at a time. Short bursts of incredible speed separated by long periods of inactivity.

Very cool.! My dream ride would be in an Corsair F4U.
