Some random 15's that i offered a bloke a slab for No A/C But, now that i think of it, it was the most reliable car i've had.

1989 TX5 Ghia 5spd. 16" Speedy Longchamp wheels, Pedders Springs, 2.25" catback exhaust, and K&N panel filter.
It was a good car and it served me well. I miss it when I go on long drives because my current car is uncomfortable as hell regardless of how fast it is  :

A 71 XY Falcon 500.
6 cylinder with 3 on the tree. I went through 5 clutches and 3 gearboxes in two years in that poor thing. I still have it and it is now in primer undergoing major modification. |

My first car was an EL gli, lowered with 15" rims. I thought I'd put an old pic up of my brothers first car(the XE) with some cousins and their first cars. the pic was taken in about 1996.
  The pic is only bad quality because it is so large. |
