navygz19 Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Thought it might be fun...Though I don't have any originals, I DID find some lucky devil on the internet who happened to have the same model/color/etc. It was a 1979 Volvo DL Wagon, my Mom's hand me down that she had for 18 years till she got, instead (ironically) a '97 QX4 (that's what got me hooked on Pathy's :-) ) Complete with a 4 spd manual, AM Radio w/ one speaker on top of the dash and 107 blazing hp. at the crank. Oh yeah, and a posi traction rear-end which worked WONDERS in the snow. Here she is though: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slick Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) ok. this is as close as i could get.. i really must scan the pics of my baby...... 1986 Nissan Bluebird.. brand spankin new .... red.. with much better rims than the one pictured.. 4 door, 5 speed, 1.9LX gawd i LOOOOOOOOOVED that car -bounce- BTW: i was living in england when i bought her she was basically the US version which was the stanza... but i prefer the name "bluebird" anyway.. sounds posh Edited February 10, 2006 by Slick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
navygz19 Posted February 10, 2006 Author Share Posted February 10, 2006 sounds posh you said "posh"...lollers! I agree, Bluebird>Stanza. What the hell's a Stanza anyways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) you said "posh"...lollers!I agree, Bluebird>Stanza. What the hell's a Stanza anyways? your guess is as good as mine STANZA. Stanza is a unified group of lines in poetry. Example:. Return to Literary Term Page.

(google search for "stanza") Right. Seems Nissan wasn't too concerned w/ giving it a fitting name :confused: Armada...well, that shoe fits the foot just fine. Pathfinder...no explanation necessary. Frontier...well, COULD KINDA see where that came from. XTerra...X-Games, etc. etc etc...goes along w/ the lifestyle I suppose! Maxima...not too sure Sentra...That's a lame one (I used to have one as well) Quest...it's a minivan, it set's out on many Quest's w/ the family in tow (it's a stretch) Stanza...unified group of lines in poetry? not sure how that fit's the car, looks more like a little "bluebird" to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SC88Pathy Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Not the right color but right vehicle an 88 Ford Taurus. Mine was brown. With brown leather. And brown carpet and brown dash and brown headliner. That really describes it, brown. I totaled it only about 6 monthes or so after I got it.

Harbinger Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 This isn't mine -- but its close -- 1983 Olds Toronado w/ 5.7 350 Diesel Motor. Bought it from my uncle for $500 (more than I got my pathy for! ) with 270K miles on it. Was a sweet car -- top speed of 85 going down hill, but 35mpg!

mws Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) My first car: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2185429 The infamous '65 Ford Fairlane Remarkably similar, but blue with chromed wheels and the fattest rubber I could stuff. And a honkin' 302.... Great car for the time (except the front suspension!), but parts were a pain. That is the only American car I know that was in production for a grand total of one year. The '64 was different, the '66 was totally different. Most parts had to be adapted from a Mustang or hand built.

mws Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 And my first vehicle (about 4 years before I finally caved in and bought a cage...) http://www.bikez.com/motorcycles/kawasaki_kh_400_1976.php WHHHHHHAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH... ta ting ting da ting ding ding.....

DJ Dank Posted February 11, 2006 Share Posted February 11, 2006 (edited) I had an ex gf back in the day that drove a Conquest. That thing was ballsy with its turbo 4cyl. My first car was a 1986 Buick Skylark. Maroon. I called it "KIT" from Knight Ryder because it had the digital dash and speedometer. I thought that was SO cool. -alcohol- Edited February 11, 2006 by DJ Dank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
