My buddy in college had a Lebaron, and we used to cruise around town all the time in that bitch.

I haven't read the thread yet, but here are my contributions (I hope some haven't been mebtioned yet):

This bad boy WWF ring:



I was pretty obsessed with Micro Machines as a kid:



I never had a scooter, but I used to bunny hop on my friends' scooters on the reg:



We used to play wiffle for HOURS on end:



Many days spent talking and trading baseball cards:



My cousins and I used to all huddle in one cousins bedroom and play Atari:



And of course, NES shortly thereafter:



My dad nailed the rim of this bad boy over the doorhang of a big playroom, and I used to wear myself out on it:



And these:





And trying to geta couples skate on these arse-ugly things:







I'm sure there are tons I am forgetting, and most of all I played basketball and baseball with my friends. But man, I miss being an 80s kid.

I had a turbo LeBaron back in my younger years. Thought it was a beast but it wasn't really.

My buddy's was a piece of shite, and we knew it and loved it. We used to ride up to Citiplace back when it first opened, and we had his two 6x9 speakers sitting on his back seat BLARING some New Kids on the Block. It was hilarious how many people stared at us like we were idiots. We used to love doing that shite just to mess with people.

I don't believe your motivation. Which NKOTB did you pretend to be?

That's the only decent muscle car(if you can call it that) of the 80's.

No pretending. We'd just put in a CD I had ( this one, to be exact) and blast Hangin' Tough and roll up to the ticket line at Citiplace waving our hands like idiots. One of us would get out and check movie times for a minute or so, and then get back in the car and we'd peace out.

Like I said, it was stupid, but we thought it was hilarious.
