You're missing 74 - 96.

74. You hear the Terminator theme when you're about to race (2003/2004 Cobra guys)
75. When talking to Chevy guys, you point out you're starting with less displacement then they, even though that's their point too
76. You cuss Ford on a daily basis for not making a 302 mod engine stock in the S197
77. You wish the V6 had 300 hp, V8 400 hp, GT500 500 hp, all stock numbers
78. Your doorjams are cleaner than other people's cars
79. You hate opening the trunk after a washing... drip drip...
80. Under your hood is cleaner than other people's cars
81. Your car is driven once after washing, and under the plate is filthy
82. After a wash and wax, you park it in the garage facing out so the neighbors can see it
83. You always drive by store windows, so you can how it looks when going by
84. Your wife/girlfriend shows up naked, with a pizza and beer, and you'd still rather be under the hood
85. You go out and buy a digital camera so you can post pictures on forums
86. You do a burnout in front of a store so you can see how it looks
87. When you watch a western, you find yourself saying "that horse needs a stripe"
88. You hear the theme to Rawhide when passing a group of bikers
89. You know what a Mustang Melvin is
90. You immediately notice on a Fox if it has 4 or 5 lug wheels
91. You never say "point" when discussing engine displacement
92. You've never mistaken a Taurus for an SN95 from long distance
93. You open the door, it squeaks
94. You finish closing your door with your ass cause it didn't close all the way
95. You know the Ford ignition sound and turn your head to it, no matter what kind of car it is
96. You look under the hood of a stranger's car and start telling him/her what they've done to it
