sorry to take up so much room but heres the blog i was talkin about
ok so a friend was givin me heck about how many cars i've had sayin i'm A.D.D when it comes to cars and i thought about it and he's i dont agree so here's what all i've had and why i bought and got rid of each one got rid of each one... and you tell me?!?!
1996 dodge dakota... bought it when i was 16 and wasnt really into cars all that much and sold it whenthe whole ricer thing started getting popular
1993 acura integra gsr... i bought it when the ricer sceen was gettin big and was content till my ex's mom backed into it and totaled it
1988 mustang GT... this thing was highy modded... so much it was a junky daily driver because it was meant to haul ass not go to work... but i wasn't complaining caus i got it for 2000 and sold it for 4500 w/ a blown head gasket
1999 yamaha R1... MY first sportbike!!! had it for 2 weeks and then the bank found out it had a salvage title and stopped that loan from being processed!!

1993 eclipse GSX... this "censored word's will get you removed from this forum" hunk a junk NEVER ran... NOT ONCE.... finally sold it for like 1500 bucks
2004 dodge neon SRT-4... i hate to admit but i actually miss this one... i bought it when i was workin at a dodge dealership and this thing was a factory freak of nature... there wasn't another one around that could hang! sold it because of all the shoot it gave me w/ the tranny later on but while i had this car i went through these next bikes
2001 yamaha R1... after he looped it out and it set for 6 months my friend ele told me if i would fix it i could ride it for the summer... soooo since i had a bunch of old r1 parts i jumped all over it.... needless to say a dumb woman backed out of her driveway when i was on my way to work and tagged my ass... the damage apraised somehow ;-) ;-) for 6000(some know the whole story) so i just gave ele the check for 6000 and kept the bike and fixed it for less than 300 buck... then i traded it for a...
2001 honda cbr 929... i got this because i had just got into the whole stunt thing and this was the bike to have at the time... rode it for a while and had JUST started killing standups when i traded it for a...
2001 cbr 600f4i... this is when i REALLY started getting into stunting... and im tellin you this thing woulda got me in trouble SOOO many times (if i woulda actually pulled over)
back to the neon... ended up gettin a nice little....
1992 silverado singlecab... nice little truck... lowered and had a rockin 383 stroker in it.... but the tranny wouldn't hold up so i sold it AND the f4i(which i HIGHLY regret) and bought a....
2001 singlecab chevy... gawd i loved this one... lowered 4&6 and had a v8.... poor thing got totaled on fathers day... courtney K was drivin and a blazer pulled right out in front of us and she smashed the poor thing right up under the blazer
2001 cbr600F4i... i absolutely HAD to have another one! bought it wrecked and built it back into the highlighter you all know and love today!
1999 2dr tahoe... im normally not much of a lifted offroad vehicle kinda guy but it was nice and loaded and at the time it was all i could get caus i had just changed jobs so i didn't have the job stability to get a loan and they guy i bought it from let me make payments.... well a month and a half ago a dumb sob didn't know what "yield left on green" meant so he turned and i hit him and spun his little fart can mobile around TWICE.... totaled my tahoe and i just bought a
2004 pontiac GTO: had it for 5 months and got sick of payin 300 a month for insurance and i had just got my bike back so i needed anothe truck.... sold it and started the search for a squarebody(73-97 chevy)
1986 chevy C10: this is one of those things that you question.... was it just by chance or fate?!?! i am FINALLY make dang good money and i want to build a truck so i start lookin for one of these and come across the ONE that i i thought was gone for good.... you see about a year and a half ago one of my best friends had a c10 he wanted to build into a nice truck but didn't have the money... so he went to rebuild homes for the hurricane relief program and while he was gone he was killed in a motorcycle accident... and his parents didn't wanna sell it but they wanted to give it to someone close to him.... we tried to get them to giv it to my cousin shae because she was the whole reason he left... he wanted to make some money to start a life with her... so we wanted her to have it so we could help her build it into the truck he wanted it to be... but they gave it to someone else... who sold it :-(... back to the story... my brother-in-law calls me and says he has a friend w/ one for sale so i take a look at it on his myspace and tell him i like it and to email me a copy of the title for my banker.... when i got the email my heart skipped a beat... because right there under "previous owner" there it was..... Matt Shagula! from this point on i decided i will not cut corners or cost anywhere.... this IS going to be the truck Matt dreamed (w/ a little of my flavor of course!) it may take a while but this one i can't/wont let go of! rest in peace brother!
*now the best of ALL is the one i saved to list for last..... the 1987 DODGE RAMVAN!!!... ok i know what you are thinking... a VAN?!?! YES! the few who know what im talkin about will tell you!!... this thin used to be my grandmas and she gave it to my mom and my mom was like heck i dont need it soo... (insert evil laugh here) i took it... we put this thing through EVERYTHING... we jumped the fuuuuck out of it.... off roaded it... ran it into shoot like shoppin carts and all kinds of others... threw pumpkins out of it and once we even threw a shoppin cart out the back at like 80... tied to a LONG ass rope!.... and the best part of it was the shoppin cart started tumbling and tangling up in the rope at a HIGH rate of speed and you shoulda seen the look on our face tryin to CAREFULLY slow down and keep it from SMASHING into the back of the van.... WOW i miss this thing!!! here's to you ol ramvan... we MISS YA!!!
