1999 Pontiac Bonneville SE
Meet Bonnie. She is my very first car I've owned and I'm happy to say she hasn't failed me yet. My grandma bought this brand new in 1999 for driving around or for a daily commute, and now since she is in her 70s and doesn't drive nearly as often, she has given me the car for free. I'm gonna give you a free tour of the car, so here we go:
The interior. When I first got the car I had to vacuum, dust, and clean every nook and cranny just to get it to look nice. It's a very comfortable car to ride in and everything works fine, very cold air and heat when I need it. Only problem is that the top seam on the rear right door leaks a little late and brings in some dust, so I'll be getting that fixed eventually.
The outside. As you can see in the top photo this car is in desperate need of a repaint. Luckily though, my uncle in Fargo happens to have his own body shop and told me he could repaint and sand my car for ~$700. I also had a new windshield put in for about ~$150. It's also missing both the rear strips of plastic on the doors, and I really should wash it soon.....
The engine. It has the 3800 Series II V6 that produces 205 HP. I've replaced the air filter, and added a new spark plug (gonna add the rest soon), and given it a fresh new oil change. When I first took the cover for the engine off, I found a mouse nest in there, though that's not the only thing that was in there. In the front on the grille, there was a hornets nest that would appear every summer.
1988 Honda FourTrax
I also have an '88 Honda FourTrax. My grandfather got it around 2 years ago and it's quite a handy little thing. The last month or so it wouldn't start, so we took it into a repair shop and got it fixed. Turns out, it was the starter that was causing the problem. The starter was stuck and really dirty, plus the four wheeler is a push button start (it has a kick starter also but I've never used it).
1997 Dodge Ram 2500 (8.0 gas V10)
Not exactly my vehicle but my grandfather said I could do whatever I wanted with it, since it never gets driven much anymore. It needs a lot of to work and a lot of things under the hood but hey, it runs and drives
1970 Ford F-250
My project truck, and also my dream truck. Currently it's sitting at my stepfather's dad's farm in the weeds, so I'll post pics when I'm able to.
That's all I have to say about things at the moment. When something happens I'll be sure to update the OP.
