What was your First Car?

I dont have pictures of the 83 K10 i had in high school ( i mean, who DIDNT own a square body at one point or another?)
Nor do i have pics of the 97 dodge i had for a few months, but i DO have pictures of the 89 Mazda 323 that i traded to my little brother for my 4x4 dodge. (i needed MPG's to roadtrip and my BMX career overtook my MX career). THIS was my first "car" i racked over 90k on this 5speed hatchback in two years. Still sad i sent her to the grave, should have kept it forever.

behold...

 

Nobody asked but this was #3

Actual photo (of a photo)

 

14 year old 1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88. Had a nice shade of rust all around, the faux convertible top was faded out and the hub caps were long gone. I did become pit crew fast at jumping out in the middle of the road to open the hood, remove the air filter cover and spray starting fluid in to the carburetor to get her started again after stalling out.

Not my actual car, but colors are correct.

 

No pic of my own, but this is close.



Secondhand from my parents with 200k miles on it, with the 2.0 and SR5 package.

 

Google image, but this was my first. Totaled it while I had my permit

 

Also, damned thing was indestructible. Could hold 8 hs kids if some of them crammed into the hatch. Ran it for three years then gave it back when I got myself a CRX, heh.

 

No pictures of it, but my parents old 1982 Ford Granada station wagon. Not the coolest car in High school, but the back folded down flat and it had a pile of blankets and pillows in the back for those cold nights.

 

Close.

 

1991 Dodge Stealth

 

1982 mustang silver with wheels on it worth 3 times as much as the car.



Looked just like this except shitty...

Fun fact... a stripped out flywheel totalled out the car. Had a hard to find 10" flywheel and having one made was more expensive than getting a different vehicle.
Removed and sold the wheel & tires, and took it to a scrapyard and got a quick 100bucks for it...

 

no pictures of mine because it was almost 28 years ago. '79 911SC

 

Still though. For a first car you hit the jackpot!

 

And the mechanic most likely.

 

yup pops bought it for himself, got in a auto accident and was paralyzed so he couldnt drive it. was given to me and a some time later while moving from Dallas back to ohio being transported by the movers it got pinched between a shifting load and the frame bent. Big legal battle ensued. Turns out the movers loaded it into the semi and it got smashed between a homes worth of furniture and the something else. Their official story at least. Tooks 5 years of fighting to get paid.
