Motorized Toys

[440satellite]

Ok, what do you all have sitting in the garage with a combustion engine that sucks money, takes up space and can cause headaches with the significant other (or so I've heard)??  Though I'd ask and see if there was a common thread amongst the sly grease monkeys in here.  I'd list all my internal combustion stuff but it'd take 3/4 of a page...   I admit I do have a slight obsession.  Here are my favorite toys:

1. Obvious from my handle - a '68 satellite hardtop 2-dr driver working towards a 440 heart transplant

2. 1942 Mercury 3.5hp outboard

3. '07 Kawi KLR650

4. Arctic Cat F7

5. And of course my hauler to get my newly aquired "treasures" back to the house a V-10 F250

6. oh, yeah, and my collection of slightly modified or antique lawn tractors

Trust me this is not a bragging thread because none of these will win any beauty contests, the Ford's the nicest thing I own.  Just wanted to see what yins guys had about your place.

May be JDog, but I bet your not currently breaking any zoning laws and your bank account is happier for it!  I have a hard time passing up a good deal when I come across one, especially if it's an older machine of some sort.  The '68 and the '42 are the vintage of my obsession, the others are just time passers. 

Heck, even my house had wheels once!!

Yeah... I got some of that.

1973 CB450 I am rebuilding into a Cafe racer style bike. Ground up restore and everything is ready to go back together.

1999 CR250 - 2 stroke dirtbikes are my fave, this one is green stickered for Cali too.

2003 XR100 - wifes bike

2 Go-Ped Sports

Thats everything with an engine, tons of other stuff packed in there.

Not bad for a single car garage huh?

Still waiting for the snowblower (ordered it) as we got tons of snow in Ottawa this year and I'm tired of shoveling.

1969 Chevrolet 3/4 ton 2 wheel drive Camper Special (hanging onto this mostly for sentimental reasons. first truck, and my grandpa gave it to me) 350 small block currently, really want a big block for it though.

1985 Ford F-150 4 wheel drive with a straight 6 and one barrel (my dad gave me this one, and I've put about $2,000 into it just getting it driveable, it's my daily)

2003 Chrysler Town & Country the wife's van, I'm not a mini-van fan, but the price was right and it gets better mileage than a Tahoe

That's it for now. Certainly not for lack of wanting either. It's lack of fundage.
