    Default What does TBCS drive?

    Be sure to black out license plates, per the TBCS rules.

    I'll start:

    my 1985 Volvo 245DL ****beater of a car, it 'runs'. paint is all horrible on the top, rear springs are shot, it catches on fire going uphill (no joke, i popped the hood after going up a local mountain road and smoke was coming out) and I can't outrun a '94 toyota corolla, but it's loud, proud and damnit, it's mine!



    For the Volvo/Car geeks that will understand this, some technical stuff:

    B230F, AW70 (my OD works! kinda), LH2.2, though it does have a 21mm front sway bar as opposed to the 19mm so turn-in is a little neater, but high profile tyres pretty much kill that.

    How about my 93 Corolla? Most of the paint on the roof is gone, paint on the hood is about half gone. Front left bearings are shot so it makes a horrific grinding sound. But I have 14" rims and new wiper blades!

    It's going to be my summer project since I work off hours now. Gonna paint it, replace the front speakers, all that good stuff... oh and get the bearing fixed!

    It's got 182k miles on it and I'm shooting for 250 before I replace it. It's been in the family since 93, when my Dad bought it.

    I'll put up a pic soon.

    1989 Chrysler Lebaron. Hardtop, 2.5L turbo. Painted faded down to the primer on the roof and hood. Did have a kick arse stereo till a coupa days ago, when my friendly neighborhood chickenhead decided to relieve me of said stereo. So now I have a hole in my dash to mach the whole in my heart. I was gonna fix it up, cause it has potential, but now I figure, why?

    91 Ford Probe GL. I prefer imports but eh, i wanted a five speed coup and this was what i could afford. Made by Mazda anyway.

    This is Emilia






    ~151,600 miles on it, purchased it at 140,sumthin. Runs well enough i suppose.
    If i can get the hole in the body patched up I might put a lil bit of money in to her but not to much.

    What if I'm a world unturning.

    Had since 04, so it's been a while. Funny how I stopped caring what I drove once I had my surgery. Things like that used to seem so important, not so much now.

    Old pic, but don't have a recent one.

    I don't have a photo of the camaro but I hope an old video will work. She is a little meaner now with a blown 383 and some 05 corvette z06 wheels.
