Owned--probably my "collection" of 5 Pontiac Fieros that I owned at one point. All were 2M6 (2.8L V-6) SE or GT models, but I had one converted to a Cadillac Northstar V-8 drivetrain (basically, a direct "drop-in", since the mid-engine layout Fiero was just a GM FWD drivetrain mounted in the back).
Driven--a 1971 Plymouth Cricket--tiny little Euro-car marketed under the Plymouth nameplate. A 60's (don't recall what year) VW MicroBus with a Porsche 916 drivetrain swap--it actually would hold speed on the highway. Any number of my cousin's "sleepers"--stupid stuff (big luxo sedans and station wagons) with built to the ass racing drivetrains in them.
My '64 Ford Econoline Van was kinda cool/weird too. Engine between the two front seats in a box, three on the tree, and manual steering and manual drum brakes on all 4 corners. Giant "school bus" steering wheel. Seating on the front of the front wheel housings--totally vertical face--zero crash protection.
"And today is for sale and it's all you can afford. Buy your own admission. The whole things got you bored. Well the Lord chooses the good ones, and the bad ones use the Lord"--a very dear friend for decades Michael Stanley (Gee)--RIP
