My name is Ken, I've been addicted to cars before I knew what a gas pedal was! This looks like a great forum to be part of, we had a serious lack of localness happening in northern Missouri.
I've lived in California, Arizona, Missouri, USA... Yokohama, Japan...
Yes, I do speak some Japanese... But I don't say yo all the time yo... J/K
Oh and yes... cars...
I currently own, listed by year:
1976 Subaru Leone Coupe - AWD upgrade
1998 Subaru Forester S
Cars I've had:
1981 Chevette *Jumped and sank in a mud-pit, then someone ran it over with their truck.*
1981 Plymouth Horizon *engine died and headgasket was worth more than cars blue book value, so I retired it*
1991 Dodge Omni *Stuck it under a semi-trailer... I wanted to see if they really do fit... They dont...*
1985 Celica GTS *Traded for XR4Ti*
1988 XR4Ti *Traded for gas money*
1889 Subaru L *Died from turbo-oil leak, blowing the engine resulting in turbo fire*
1990 Subaru Legacy L (gray) *Bought without title, parted and scrapped sadly*
1991 Subaru Legacy L (blue) *Some kids stole it, jumped it, Cops found it and I sold for gas money*
1991 Subaru Legacy SS (Gray) *Built, but sold to pay for STi*
1993 Daytona *$40 car, died after a month, sold for scrap and got $50*
1993 Chevy S10 *My only fault accident, stuffed it into a Dodge 3500 at 20mph six days after repaint*
1997 Dodge Ram Sport *Hood opened up at 70mph, traded it for the eclipse*
2000 Eclipse GT *Jumped and rebuilt/Traded for 02 Chevy S10*
2002 Chevy S10 *died from electrical fire*
2003 Lancer OZ *Sleepy driver smashed me into a guard rail when car hit 225 actual miles*
2004 WRX STi *438HP, sold prior to moving to Ireland*
Anyway, just being silly posting some of the vehicles I've owned... I'm not quite ready to, but after my Forester sells, I'd like to pick up a decent Subaru again. I'm thinking a few ideas...
Something classic - Old Subarus =1970s, 1991 Sport Sedan,
Something mildly "classic" like a late 90s or early 00's WRX.
More, just for fun!
Buddy's Bugeye Wagon, with some decent upgrades:

My old 04' WRX STi, again a scooby with LOTS up upgrades, bringing HP ratings to 430HP.
My 1977 Ford Courier...
My Subaru Leone, prior to being tidied.
Removal of the roof skin, the pillars are repaired and rustproofed.
I would love to do this paint scheme: But change the red for the original yellow.
Anywho, I love cars and have worked on restoring them nearly literally ALL my life. I grew up around restoration and it's been in my blood ever since. I got back into restoration as work, when I lived in San Diego... One of the cars I had my hands on...
How cars came in: *some in worse shape*
How cars went out:
