20, male, West Virginia, at school in Athens, OH.
I've got my driver, a '98 Mustang, basically stock with a glass pack and a chrome tip (a real welded one, not the cheaper kind) just because I couldn't leave it TOTALLY stock. I'm painting it, slapping on some rims, and dropping in a system (and maybe a bigger engine) as soon as I get my shop up and running.
My baby, however, is a 1992 Chevy S10 X-cab. It was once black, but it's mostly primer now since I've been doing some bodywork (both custom and repair work) trying to get it ready. It's got airride, shaved side mirrors, a basic straight pipe exhaust dumping behind the cab, and a molded rearend right now. By summer, it'll hopefully have 20" rims, suicide doors, a new system, a new interior (I stripped it so I could do some fiberglass work), Cadillac taillights (just looking for the time to weld in the buckets), and a fully shaved exterior, covered up in a custom House of Kolors paintjob. I wouldn't be able to afford much new stuff at all (college and such) if I wasn't opening a shop sometime in the spring. I bought it at a slightly high price when I was fifteen, and have probably sunk about 15x it's current book value into it since then. But, it's well worth it to me, since it always has been and always will be my baby...even if it could use a new engine.
Nice cars, everyone!
