I had a 240 Z and then later, a 280 ZX. But my Toyota Supra was probably the best. I also went through a couple of Alfa Romeo Spyders, one Italian spec, one American.

That smoking green car in meme #6 made ne think of a Buster Crabbe Flash Gordon space ship. One of four TV stations used to run those serials after school afternoons when I was a half grown kid in Dothan, Alabama.

I had 4 of those 1972 Z cars, one of which was a race car, raced at Lime Rock and also got me into a LOT OF TROUBLE on the street! but my fav was my 61 Ford Starliner, 406 4sp.

And one of my first jobs in high school was as a "cart boy" at a golf course, where I became very familiar with electric golf carts. In my view, all these new electric vehicles are just glorified golf carts! Long live the internal combustion engine!

I have always loved cars! I grew up in a southern car culture in Jacksonville Florida. My first car was a brand new Ford Pinto. My dad could make anything. He had been a machinist in the Air Force. He dropped a 351 V8 in my Pinto, and it instantly became the fastest Pinto around. He had to strengthen the front end, put in a different rear end, massage the fire wall and make custom made headers. It blew Corvettes off the road! My next car was a Dodge Challenger 340, then a Datsun 240 Z.
