Can you list all the cars you have owned?




This gentleman serves on the Cugnot Committee of the Society of Automotive Historians that I chair.  He is retired in Florida and just compiled a list of all the cars he's owned over the years (I think he's in his early 80s age wise).  The early ones on this list were acquired when he was in the Air Force stationed at various places.  He acquired the 1946 Packard when he was stationed in Prestwick, Scotland, the same year he shook hands with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Phillip when they visited that base (1956).

Can anyone begin to match this list? He has owned 76 cars over his life to date with many of them highly collectable!  His 22nd car was a 1974 Pinto Station Wagon (hey, I owned one too)
