    Friend in school had a Pacer.
    My Mom laughed every time she mentioned it until her final days.
    Could not believe a high school kid would drive one and gave me grief for ever riding along.

    My mother had a Pacer X sport model in white. Yes I got the fishbowl jokes alright. At least it had bucket seats in the front and factory mag wheels.

    Wow, a Pacer Car Club, maybe I can get them to come to the Boyne Thunder Street Show next year? I will park them next to the Chevette Club.

    I can remember years ago one car coming in with two different color seats. Finding half eaten apples rolling around inside doors. We have came a long ways.

    My Grand Dad drove a Gremlin. No power anything. He next had a K car. Turned him into a speed demon.

    Pacer nick name I just remembered in the middle of the night. Moon Unit.

    My mother had a corvette for a while. She once mentioned while driving me somewhere, "Something must be wrong with these tires."

    " No mom", I replied, " I think its sqeeling because your going around the off ramp at 70 mph."

    If we're still on the worst cars of all time, remember the Suzuki X-90? What a POS!!

    Gotta be a top 10 candidate.

    Bought a 14ft center console dinghy with a 50 merc. Gave them a low ball offer and they took it. Gas tank was full of water. It sat out side and they left the vent open on the fuel tank. I got it running, sounded good. Tuning it up this am and fingers crossed. The had been asking $4900.00 for it all summer. The thing was sick looking. Two hours of cleaning and it now looks like something. Just hope it runs ok.

ID:	85824 I got the name off of it when I cleaned it up. Had it running 31 mph with out trying. I was taking it easy. I would guess it will run a little over 40 with one person if it doesn’t flip over. Ran it for about 3 hours trying to burn the gas up.
