what was your first car?

[fatal xception]

My 1st car was a 65 cherry red mustang. 289 3 on-the-floor. License plate was ITS XTC. had to sell it though. At the time it became a money pit. Miss that car though.

My friend had a green Hornet. It would do 30mph up hills and 70 downhill with the steering wheel shaking violently. He'd hit a bump and all the windows would go down.

Mine was a '79 Chevy Silverado with a big block 454...it was loaded with power windows, power locks, and a mono 8 track that played through a single 6x9 on the dash. High quality audio!!!!

One of the funnest cars I've had!! I went everywhere in that thing!! Logging roads, fireroads, overgrown roads, camping, fishing!! it was great until I blew one of the front struts thru the hood while cruisin down an old overgrown logging road... fixed that in metalwork class in highschool luckily!

Mine was a metallic blue 1964 Dodge Dart convertible.....I HATED that car....everyone called it the batmobile......(no idea why)...

That was in 1989......then I wrecked it....and bought my first Datsun Z car....and fell in love with them....now I restore them...

Ugliest car?

Believe I have the worst, 74 Pinto. Actually blew up while at the mechanics. Two tone red (paint/rust). People did have a tendency to get out of my way, and I never did see (through the billowing clouds of blackness) anyone following too close.

My '91 GMC Jimmy was my first. Bought him just over a year ago. He's designated as my winter beater now. C'mon snow...

I say "was" because I've since bought a summer car. Well technically since the Jimmy is a truck, you could call the '90 T/A GTA my first car. Even though it's only a 305 I can still relate to the "everything but a gas station" thing.

1969 Plymouth Valiant, 3 on the tree. An old Southwestern Bell car complete with spot light and 30 mpg back when that didn't mean much. 17 years old at the time---$200

my first car was a 1988 nissan sentra... basically it was a box with an engine and an air conditioner... and it was a piece of garbage by the time i got rid of it (two accidents and electrical problems later)... but i miss that car dearly...
