Lets see the cars!!!!

This one actually came from California, via Maine. It's the only one I've ever seen with no rust. I drove one in 1980 and said one day I'll have one. It took me a few years, but I've been summertime dailying it now for 14 years. couldn't be happier

Cool ! Diesel or fuel injection ?
 
Upgraded axles to a 03 with anti-slip and disc brakes. Was going to upgrade rims eventually but since the 15s wouldn't fit.. oops.. I was forced to early. Can't believe how much better it looks. Those 265/75 needs go, looks pretty meaty though! Going with the stock 03-04 size in a couple weeks.

The SLK in its natural habitat with the hood up :LOL:

Nah, just a quick fluid/belt/hose/tire check. Cars been under my care for a while now, and is a blast to drive with the 6 speed manual.

The Tacoma was dripping off in the yard after applying Fluid Film. Neighbor definitely made a snark remark about it, but whatever...
Nice cars. Is the Tacoma an auto or manual?

Automatic. Used to only want manuals, but sometimes I just want to put it in a gear and go. GTI is a 6 speed so if I need my manual fix I'll take it. Winter's coming fast though so I'm trying to get some more driving out of it before the salt flies. Have to find a place to store the SLK here too; my house is starting to look like a used car lot.

Both my main vehicles are manual and the rest are autos I feel the same way especially going to work and stuff full of stop and go for where I live though out in the country I like cruising my manual around.
 
Here's mine. My summer daily driver.

I had a cream color '84 with a maroon top and interior. It looked just like the one on the Mustie 1 YouTube channel except I had the stock wheels. I was always having gasket problems and everything went south after 175, 000 miles. That's pretty good considering I knew very little about car maintenance at the time.
