Geez, current count, personally, on runners I own is 26 (3 cars & 1 boat)
plus 6 (lawn equipment) not counting the 510 Datsun project that hasn't run
during it tenure here nor daughter's car (4) or son's currently abandoned
(but runable) second car (4) sitting in the driveway.
Lifetime? oh let's see... I"m only up to 133. Haven't been very
aggressive about purchasing cars. I wait until they blow up or get crashed
:-(
Mike (not trying too hard) Allendorfer
96 impala (taxi)
89 Honda Civic SI (daily driver w/ 210Kmiles)
94 New Yorker (wife's car)
72 510 (project some day)
ski boat (gets to 30mph pretty quick)
kids cars cluttering up the driveway)
