Winter beaters.

My winter/daily beaters

'93 Lumina Euro. Paid $500 for this.

My truck. '98 Escort Wagon. Not sure what I'd do without this car. It's hauled loads of firewood, a commercial size air compressor, and Reptile and I even hauled a complete 3800 engine about 50 miles to his house in it! LOL! Gave $400 for this and put another $125 in it for a new hood (old one was crushed) and traded out some work to get the hood painted. Sunroof installed by me, completely free.

Some old pics... It now has a little bigger tires and a undercover bed cover on it. But, we really don't have winter down here. It was nice when I lived in Illinois.

I have a 99 Grand Am that belongs to my little brother that I drive when the weather gets bad. He goes to school at Boston U and leaves his car here so I don't have to take the GTP out in the snow all that much.
 
I have a 94 Lumina As a "winter beater"
A 90 Integra as a "summer Beater"
An 87 Ram as just a general drive into crap vehicle.
 
i got it for 800 and have about 200 into it. 207k, running strong. it really isnt that bad in the snow either. after this winter it is going to become a road coarse car, hopefully i can get a truck befor next winter.

I used to live in Michigan, and rarely bought a winter beater, I just washed the car every 2 days (helped I had access to an indoor wash bay with an undercarriage wash down)
 


crap, i have no pics of my cars... thats just sad

anywhoo, i drive my 97 GTP 12 months out of the year. my wife drives her 99 GS 12 months out of the year. drive my 03 suburban when i need to. (wouldnt it figure that i bought it less than a month before hurricane katrina sent gas prices thru the roof, never to return?)

drive my GP 365 but I'm actually looking at buying another GP in the next few weeks...just gotta pick which one I want to be real nice and which one to be only kinda nice...cuz u all know theres no way to not mod a GP even if it's just a little
 
yea it is a little bit of a gas difference and a little bit of a height change . if it helps i also have a 2005 scion tc lowered w/exhaust .
