Worst car you have ever owned

Whats the worst car you have ever owned?

I'll start it off, it was a 1979 K5 blazer 350 with all time 4wd. Had probually 10 to 12 rust holes in the floor covered up with styrafoam. 8track player for the radio, was two toned light brown and black, with a white removable top. rear quarters were completely rusted out, each time you shut the door rust just came falling off, got about 3-6mpg, gas gauge did'nt work, brakes had a ton on air in the system and no matter how many times I bleed them it would still pull to the right even after I replaced the wheel cylinders.
I got pulled over for wreckless driving because of the brakes. I had to weld the front axle back to the pumpkin, i made dual exhaust going out the rust hole at my old work, and it was carburated and took forever to warm up. I bought it for my winter car last year but it broke more than I drove it and got stuck driving my honda most of the winter.

sorry for the long post I could have put more this thing was a pos

92 Oldsmobile Cutless Sierra.

The electronics in the torque convertor were toast when I got it (had no idea) and this was in the fall. Well come spring/summer when the engine was able to get to operating temp, it would stall and just die everytime it did get to operating temp.

81 Monte Carlo

List of parts replaced in first 6 months:

2 carburators
1 alternator (actually 2...first one I got was a bad rebuild)
2 batteries (^ goes with that...long story)
Rear floor board...it was rotted when I bought it but my friend finished it off a put a hole through it with his foot.
Complete exhaust from before the cat
Other things that I can't remember

Other things that happened:


The car had magnesium wheels on it that had to be tightened down every week. Well...I had skiped a week and on my way home from school I saw something shiny fly across the road but thought nothing of it. Few minutes later...same thing. I pulled over only to find out that it was my lug nuts from my front drivers side tire flying off.....there were only 2 left and they were about 2 threads away from coming off.

When I sold the car it wouldnt go over 25 mph because there was something wrong with the valves. If you hit the gas too hard it would die. Feather it up to 25 and cruise along .
I had the car for about 1 year but only drove it for 2-3 months. It was my first car and being 16 I didn'thave the money to fix it all the time.

I sold the car to my friend for $100...he sold 1 week later for $500. Whe the car was sold the second time....it died in front of my frinds house...it had to be flat beded home .

93 corsica

It was really my parents car but I was the only one that drove it. The Altenator died in the middle of a snow strom in December. pushed it home 3 miles away. finally had the neighbor fix it a week later. Picked up and on the same day got the letter saying my liscence was suspended for 6 months. got the license back and drove for 2 weeks and the radiator hose blew on the other side of town and took another week to get it running. Finally said screw it and went out and bought the 97 Cavalier. now I stuck trying to keep the in-laws 93 metro and 81 corrola running so that I will have something to drive this winter.

Its a toss up I've owned so many pos. Between my 80 cutlass, s10, 80 sunbird, and the 89 f150 I still have. The cutlass flooded all the time and the engine started on fire at fleet farm once. It left me stranded in the median of hwy 41. The engine had low oil pressure because the early 231's had a bad oil pump design. The s10 leaked and burned oil so bad that after an hour trip it would be almost empty. Finally started smoking real bad on 41 and threw a rod leaving a smoke screen behind. Started booking it because I didn't have a license at the time trying to make it to my dads house not far away. State cop (chick, I think lesbian) saw me walking and gave me a ride to pops house. Didn't ask about license thank god. The sunbird was just a pos I bought from a neighbor. Ran okay, but was a death trap if there was any kind of snow or rain on the road. And the f150 constantly has had something go on it. Somehow starter wire went bad just sitting in driveway while fixing a bunch of other junk on it. When it was running the hood latch went bad and the hood flew up going 65 on the highway. Now its been sitting about two years. Its not getting fuel, and I haven't messed with it. And I have to throw in the two tempos I owned just cause they are such an ugly car. Best beaters were my Pontiac bonneville I bought for 700 and had for 6 years and just giving a lot of problems now, I rebuilt the engine a few years ago, just because it was so reliable, and the old 83 sunbird I had. Only thing that ever went wrong until I smashed it were a timing belt and control module. I had to drive from shawano to green bay and back with it everyday for work, and put a lot of miles on it without problems. My first car, a 74 chevelle was pretty good too. Had hardly any compression in the engine, 350 v8, but still started and ran good. The things that went bad on it were usually from me beating the hell out of it. There is that enough info.
