[Jay H 237]

I got three cars: 87 Caprice Classic Estate Wagon(9 passenger)
68 Mustang coupe
97 Camry

The Chevy Caprice I've had since '95. It's gold with blonde woodgrain trim and biege interior. Factory Olds 307 underhood still running strong with no major engine work at 170,000. I kept it because when I bought the Camry they refused to take it as a trade( too old and mileage too high even though it's in good shape and has been kept maintained). I might also wind up restoring it , think how popular the 1969 Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser is on 'That 70's Show'! We've also used it to haul our robot with and pile people in it to go to local competitions. It's got "wells" in the back to keep tools, extention cords, ect. At local robot events it's been decorated with streamers, lights, balloon animals, and glitter.

The Mustang is used for car shows and cruises only. I've been slowly restoring it since I bought it in '98. It's Acapulco blue with black interior originally from Costa Mesa, CA. I even have paperwork from the original owner. It has 81,000 on the original 289 under the hood. It also has a C-4 automatic, power steering, and AM radio(converted internally to FM). I've also brought it to some of team 237's fundraisers to attract attention to our team.

The Camry is just my everyday commuter. I can go almost all week with a tank of gas. With the wagon I would have to fill up every 2 days!
