The long overdue intro post...

[transponder7]

My name is Freeman, and I enjoy long walks on the beach, quiet sunsets, and roaring fires on cold nights. I think my ideal woman would have to have simple, classic lines, a firm body, and a good solid undercarriage.

 

I have owned several cars in my short life, mostly big brutish Americans. names like Dodge Ram, Cadillac Sedan De-vile, Ford Taurus, Jeep Cherokee, and Ford Ranger come to mind.

 

I bought an old Corolla to sell to a friend, a Mercedes that was dirt cheap, and finally my datto.

 

She is a 1980 210 (b310) with 102k on the clock. Under the hood resides an A-15 mated to a 3-speed automatic (for now). As for the interior, there is none. When I bought her, she was very wet on the inside, so I stripped her down. She then got new plugs, front brakes, and one headlight.

 

She is my DD and handles my commute from Redmond to SeaTac with the grace and poise of a geisha.

Sounds like mine although I did a little more to the brakes and suspension.  It's ratty inside and out but dependable as the day is long.  I'll start worrying about it at 250K.
