Default most ghetto ride ever owned ?????

for me it was a ford ltd station wagon i think it was an 85. full with rust holes and a severly tweaked back bumper and the antenna fell through the fender from the rust and every time i turn it felt like the front tires were going to come off that only lasted me like 4-5 months. till i blew the motor finally right in front of my house when i was doing a burnout because i was leaving for boot camp the next day i had fun with it i even brought that damn thing almost 4 feet in the air once jumping a little ramp.h: :thumbup:

I had a '73 Pontiac, I can't remember the model--same as a Nova, that I bought for $30. It was rusted, the driver's door didn't open, and it had this crappy orange color. It burned oil, the water pump leaked, and once I ran out of gas because the fuel filler neck came off of the gas tank.

The muffler fell off when I was on my way to court, ironically for a loud exhaust ticket (on another car). Going over a speedbump, I flattened the remaining exhaust pipe so it made a hissing noise instead of a loud roar, so I left it that way and didn't replace the muffler.

Once the brakes on the car went out, and I stopped it by driving over a foot-high median. I wrecked all four tires and rims, but it ran fine after I replaced them. (We used to go dumpster diving for the throw away tires from tire stores, so I had plenty of spares.)

I used that car for nearly a year to deliver pizza, and it never let me down. When it finally was leaking too much, I sold it to my friends at the gas station for $30. They took it out in a field behind the station and did some hill jumping until it died.

My first ride ever was pretty ghetto it was an 88 Plymouth Sundance but my current winter beater takes the cake it's an 88 Buick Lasabre boat LOL can you say bouncy.

I'm getting rid of it once I pull my Civic out of storage since it won't pass emissions next winter we'll see what kind of ghetto car I get next for a winter beater.
