Harabas ba yung maliit na parang ford fierra?

We had one and I really miss it!

Yung samin is yung square pa ang hood at bilog ang headlight. Gas (MAZDA) engine pero di ko alam yung displacement. Tapos pinalitan namin ng Toyota 2T, langya ayaw umusad. :bwahaha:. Yung sumunod na model dun is yung rounded na ang hood with rectangle lights.

It is the base model of those XLT clones in Pampanga.

Dami ko din memories dun sa Fiera namin. Dun ako natuto mag maneho.

Binili ng tatay ko yung for Php75k bnew then we sold it for Php150k after 16 years. 4JA1 na makina nya nun at major body repairs na din. Bilib ako sa chassis nun, after 16 years, wala padin tama ng kalawang.

Tagal ko na nag hahanap ng pictures nun sa net pero wala ako makita.

Isa iyan sa mga 'test vehicles' namin noong nag-aaral kaming mag-drive... hehehe

At saka,- iyong 'Pinoy' na gawa ng Francisco Motors Corp..... I still remember with fondness the 'Ay Pinoy' ad of the late Bert 'Tawa' Marcelo.... hehehe

Pangharabas.

These are the workhorse of the 70's & 80's. Durable and practical (easy to maintain). There are still quite a handful of these in the cities but mostly in the provinces.

Hindi ba iyan pa rin ang jeepney service ng CCP? Andami pa nyan doon!

Ah, the Cimarron... riding home from school in one, the engine bucking like a horse (tamang tama lang, di ba? Kabayo naman talaga ang Cimarron), buckets of pig slop headed for my uncle's farm leaking all over our shoes and school bags, the smell of buses overtaking us at 40 km/h... ah... memories...

sobra kau ha. i'm only 22 :P
binili namin yun 1983 bnew.

it has an isuzu c240 engine. ang pinalitan p lng dun eh ung body works due to rust ska ung differential nya.

ginamit din namin to dati as school bus kya talagang bbugbog sa gamit to. but it still runs :D

im planning to revive it to its original body design. tapos a few upgrades. just for the fun of it :D

btw, the Nissan Bida is actually a re-badge Ford Fierra... Nissan bought rights from Ford when it left us back in 90s.

The good ole Ford Fiera....

Service vehicle dati ng PLDT circa 80's, si erpats nun madalas dalhin sa haus.

Nauso din pampasada ito nung time na di pa mahal ang gasolina. Yung orig steering wheel nya is all steel na parang flat bar ung gitna.

Brings back good memories kapag nakakakita ako ng mga units na tumatakbo pa...which reminds me these models of the same genre

- Pinoy Harabas
- Toyota Tamaraw
- Cimarron
- Sakbayan

Hehe! Halata na ba?

pang-outing.. puno yun kapag umuuwi kami ng batangas. at nakakauwi pa yung ng cagayan.

ibinenta na lang dahil punta na sila ng tate.

We had a Toyota Tamaraw when I was a kid but I envy the kids I know that owns a Ford Fiera. Ewan ko ba kse feeling ko nung bata ako na mas "cool" yung Fiera at jologs ang Tamaraw! hahaha!!

Memories...
