That said I miss my XBGT Falcon every time Mad Max or Love the beast comes on. Then theres the RX3 race car? Sigh

Yes. Absolutely.

Anyone have an EXP they want to sell? Prefer one with working A/C. Manual trans is a must.

No one?

Didn't think so.

My '93 Plymouth Sundance Duster that I swapped a 2.2 turbo into. I sold it to cover my ex-wife's car payments since the "business" she started simply hemorrhaged money for about a year.

She disappeared without a trace a few months alter after getting a real job, leaving me with thousands in debt and a Plymouth-Duster-shaped hole in my heart.

I miss two of my old cars terribly. No pics, unfortunately, since I owned both before the era of digital cameras:

1986 Hyundai Pony. Canadian readers can stop laughing now. I discovered fairly early on that these are basically a Mark II Escort with Mitsubishi running gear, which I took complete advantage of. Tiny rear drive cars are a blast, and the G16 engine was super easy to work on and mod. By the time of its unfortunate demise it was running twin Solex carbs and blowing the doors off much more respectable iron.

1979 Golf GTi. Found this by accident -- for $150. Brought back by a returning Canadian Forces serviceman, run by his son for a few years until he backed it over a curb and bent the rear axle. Insurance wrote it off and he didn't know what he had. Far be it for me to let him know, and within a month I had it back on the road. Carbed 1.6, close-ratio 5-speed with direct top, plaid Recaros, VDO gauges, fat steel wheels with black hubcaps. What a blast. Blew fifth gear out and had no money to source a new tranny from Germany, so sold it off. Regretted it ever since.
