How many K owners do we have here?
#51
I'll chime in. It's not an 'original' K car as an Aries or Acclaim. But it sports the K style frame from the 80's that started it all.
It's a 1986 Daytona Turbo Z that has had quite a bit of modifications done to it. It's both far from stock. And all stock all in the same. I gave it a full mechanical transplant from the highly upgraded 1989 Shelby Daytona. I made a new members thread you can read more info on it so I don't put you all to sleep.

Kansas Shadow
I have a 1994 Dodge Shadow 2.2L 4Cyl. I'm in the process of turning it into a tuner, even though turning this economy car into one is probably just going to rice it. Right now I own the fastest Shadow in town out of 5, and can beat the 1990's mustangs rolling around. However, I'd love some help finding upgrades, both performance and cosmetic. keep in mind I'm only 18, so I can't pour out a ton of cash. Plus, I'm looking for a 1993 Nissan 300ZX if you know anyone. again, can't be outrageously priced.

Proud K car owner!
Got me an 88 reliant k, she's my baby. I'm 28 and when I needed a new vehicle and saw her I had to have her! They are amazing in snow, up here in NH we get our fair share, I'll plow through thick wet snow no problem and see others struggle to get home in once piece! Cheap to run, cheap to fix, love me some K car!

I drive mine year round, never had an issue. Drive right past 4x4s in the ditch.
Gotta love being able to fix most things in the driveway for less then $50.

The CRAZY thing is, just a couple years earlier, our high school had an honest-to-God Smokey & the Bandit Trans-Am driver's ed car!!! Black, with gold firebird on the hood, t-tops, and the reverse hood scoop (COULDA been either the 305 or the 6.6, I know), but it looked JUST like this!
Sure, it was a demonstrator from the local Pontiac dealer for that purpose, but it made us - by FAR - the coolest of the 5 county hi skrools when we had it. And I've NEVER been a GM fan, but "Smokey & the Bandit" was a MONSTER hit movie in my neck of the woods (piedmont of NC) at that time.
And then - 2 years later - here we are - learning on a K-Car POS...

I have an 86 Dodge 600ES turbo convertible. 89,000 miles on it. I bought from the widow of a man who was on the beach at D-Day. They gave me a photo of him and his buddies. He had his index finger shot off. We named the car Rita after his wife. We just last year had new top put on by Sue from Fast and Loud fame. Great job , Sue!
