What was your first car?

1965 Chevy short bed bought in 95 when I was 14. My Dad co-signed the note so I could by it. It was and still is on an 84 blazer frame since short bed chevys did not come in 4x4 in 1965. Sold it when I was 16, it went through several owners and really deteriorated. I was lucky enough to see it for sale and buy it back several years ago. Planning to restore it someday.

 

1983 Plymouth Turismo... what a piece of crap...

 

1978 Toyota Celica, with a cracked block and a leaking water pump.
i loved that car and it lasted me about 6 years---wish i still had that
car.

 

1985 Volkswagen GTI. It was a lot of fun to drive but was a piece of crap. Damn Bosch fuel injection

 

Hey Now- Same here, a 1985 VW GTI!

 

In 1985 I had a friend who bought one new and he let me drive it. That car was a blast to drive. I loved the 5 speed shifter in that thing.

 

Oh Hell yeah! Respect the big block.

 

1983 camaro Z28 with crossfire injection.

 

1967 English Ford Cortina. 1500CC about 67 or 70 HP. It had an eight gallon gas tank, even with that tiny engine I would have to stop a couple of times for gas on 200 mile trip. Worse yet, it had all Lucas electronics, if and when it started it was very very slow.

 

1988 Pontiac Grand Am. Biggest piece of crap. I bought it for $500, so I couldnt expect much. The thing wouldnt go into drive until it warmed up. my second was a 92 Ford Taurus 3.8 V6.. i loved that Taurus, it was in great shape. I sold it when I went into the military.

 

'86 Chevy Cavalier. Between 30 and 35 the entire car shook like it was going to fall apart. When I traded it in I asked what would happen to it. The salesman at the dealership said it would probably become a taxi in Mexico.

 

No pictures of these cars??

 

1967 Ford Thunderbird 2 door, 390 4 barrel.

Buick offered a 455, the 454 was Chevy

 

Sorry, no digital cameras exsisted when I had mine, plus it was not worth taking a picture of....68 Buick skylark... many lbs of bondo, buncha spray paint from Ace and sold my bike to put lifters in it

 

'07 Nissan Sentra SE-R. Only had it for 6 weeks/800 miles before selling it since it was a lemon.

Bought the Taco the next day.

 

Wasn't it a blast to drive. I would come to a right hand turn at 60 mph and just jerk the wheel and shoot that baby around the corner without blinking an eye.

I lived in Southern California for a couple of years when I had that GTI and would take it up into the mountains on the Angeles Crest Highway. I'd come blasting around a corner on some unsuspecting driver in front of me and they would always pull over and let me by

 

1978 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT. 351M bored and balanced, headers and duals that would set off car alarms. I swapped the C6 auto for a 4-speed. 3" lift with 15x10 Ultra type 52 alloys wrapped in 33X12.50X15 Cooper STT's.

I loved that freakin' thing. I have pics, just have to find them, scan them and post them.
