I can't tell you how many times I have thought about stopping to see if it is still there. It would be a blast to restore someday!
You should!

My 1980 Scirocco S in Signal Red. It was my post-college car, and my dad and I had dropped a 16valve motor in it, and added all the suspension goodies.

Sure wish I still had that toy.

My 1st car was a brand new stick-shift 1960 Studebaker Lark v8 w/ fold down seats, white w/ red interior. Quite a fun car at the drive-in! Wish I had that baby now!

Probably the beautiful red (with tan interior) Fiat Spyder my ex and I had years ago. Unfortunately, not too long after we bought it, all the gauges in the dash were stolen, along with the radio. There was a premium on stolen parts at that time. It took forever to have it fixed. Then about a month after we got it back, my ex totalled it.

I wish I still had my '00 Civic. It was paid for and I basically lost all the equity in that car by switching from the Civic to an '02 rsx-s to an '01 S2000 in a 7 month time span.

I wish I could still have my 1988 CRX Si. Red with the louver option. I was run off the road and into a tree by an old coot in a 79 Chevy.

Funny a couple of you mentioned Capris. We had a 1971 British Racing Green 4 banger auto. Worst POC I've ever driven!

I wish I still had my very first car, a '56 Chevy, green & white, "3 on the tree" with a 4 track tape player and a couple of speakers I cut into the door panels. I also remember "spinners" added to the hub caps. At the time it was a 9 years old car bought from a retired couple down the block.
Great memories of some great dates and cruises around the town square and up and down the drag.

I'm not trying to torture you, just wanted you to have a nice look at one to bring back the happy memories. This is my baby, it sits in the garage next to My Spa. And now that it is 2005 I just realized I now own a classic because it is 15 years old.

'90 CRX-SiR
