Well, this is my beater, my 1992 Chevy S-10 4.3v6 2wd. I bought her a little over a year ago with 150k on it for $400, now shes got 165k. Since we bought it its gotten, new brakes, tires, shocks, plugs, wires, cap and rotor, air filter, alternator, water pump, upper and lower radiator hoses, serpentine belt, battery, heater core, and lots of little odds and ends. Cant forget my custom paint job.

And my other 'beater', my 5spd 2001 ZX3 that I bought last summer for $2k. Only has 48k on it bone stock except for the borla. Check the classifieds in a few months for it.

Here's my Beater. 95 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 5 speed, 205,000 miles. It also has seats in it from a Dodge Omni. Its been rolled once and laid on it left side once, It also had the front axle ripped out from under it during the roll over. I did all the repair work and paint work myself. :banana:

The ZX3 is running pro kit springs and dampers. I've always thought it looked lower than other pro kits I've seen in here, but who knows. There's also around 50k on the springs in the apicture, so it has a bit of sag. Either way, I really like the way it looks. :D

While I'm overseas my current winter beater and only car here is a '98 Olds Intrigue. The GM W-body's are great snow cars and the Intrigue is a nice autobahn cruiser.

'98 Olds Intrigue



As for "other" cars there I have accumulated quite a few cars over the years that I still own and the sad part is they're all in storage until I get back stateside. To make it easier they're in order from newest model year to oldest.

Image

'04 SVTF (EAP ZX3)

Image

'04 Neon SRT-4 (lots of stuff done)

Image

'94 Olds Cutlass Supreme Convertible (3.4L 24V DOHC V6, 75k-miles)

Image

'92 Dodge Daytona IROC R/T (one of 250 for MY/431 total production, 43k-miles, also is one of ~6 factory pre-production pilot cars)

Image

'91 Dodge Spirit R/T (83k-miles, dad driving it, one of 1208 for MY/1399 total production)

Image

'90 Pontiac Turbo Grand Prix (ASC/McLaren, one of ~3750 for MY/~7475 total production, 63-k miles, intercooled turbo 3.1L V6, awaiting 5-sp conversion)

Image

'89 Dodge Daytona Shelby (T-top, intercooled 2.2L Turbo II/A-555)

Image

'89 Caravan SE (factory 2.5L Turbo I/A-413, intercooled)

Image

'85 Chevy Citation II X-11 (High Output 2.8L V6, full Koni's, factory showroom stock race car for SCCA SS/B, one of 1183 for MY)
NOTE: White '91 Spirit R/T on right totaled by drunk driver but I pulled everything off the shell so I technically have about 80% of a total car minus the unibody. Blue '02 SVTF bought back by Ford.)

Image

'81 Chevy Citation X-11 (105k-miles, been a work in progress for "a long time", same as above but higher production numbers for the model year, X-11 was created by John Heinricy at GM in his early years for those into factory racing and recognize the name).



Dang, I just counted and didn't realize I went over 10 cars again. :lol: It's not like they're all exotic supercars though. :thumbup:

It's unfortunately quicker than my SVT now and I haven't even done much to it yet. It makes the PowerWorks for the Focus seem like a really good idea. :lol:

Well the thread title does also say "other vehicles". :thumbup: Maybe I haven't been looking but you're right in that I can't remember many random, generic-vehicle-picture threads lately.
