What was your First Car?

1961 Ford Frontenac very slow but 33 miles to the gallon

 

Very Cool

 

Inaugural muscle car. (1964 GTO) Unit #104.

I have pictures somewhere. Just not sure where at the moment.

 

2 tone. I think gold and white. Looked good then, sounds like shit now.

 

81 K5 Chevy Blazer, what a wonderful POS that thing was. My personal favorite was the multiple times that thing would just randomly drop the driveshaft. Lotta good memories in the back of that truck tho.....

 

1975 Buick Regal landau with sunroof and 400 watt full Alpine system ..... also known as the Chick Magnet.

 

1993 Ford Explorer. Ran it to 185,000 Miles before upgrading to an 06 tacoma in 2008.

 

1977 Toyota pickup, 4 cyl, 4-speed, 2WD.
OMG, the rust!

First carb I ever rebuilt

 

1985 Ford Bronco XLT w/351w 4 barrel holly carb and C6 3speed trans. Loved that thing.

 

Pics man we need pics. Not original pics of when you owned it but what it looked like new

 

66 Toyota Corona with a 4 on the floor and the little 3TC 4 cylinder engine the picture is same car same color. certainly was not no speed demon but it started every time and got me where I wanted to go and back ..... most of the time. brought it for $100 bucks did not run but they were so simple to work on.

 

1985 Ford Bronco XLT w/351w 4 barrel holly carb and C6 3 speed auto.

 

very cool

 

Diesel Rabbit. Once given a speeding ticket estimate for taking off fast from a toll entrance at a park on a surf trip. My friends laughed at the cop so hard telling him how they tease me everyday about how slow it is. He threatened to arrest us all if they wouldn't stop laughing at him.

 

Silver 2001 Toyota Echo... Had like 300k miles on it when I totaled it

 

1990 Mitsubishi Galant. All-wheel drive. 5 speed. My Mom worked at a Subaru dealership and an older lady traded it in. It was ugly but in near perfect condition. I was 15. Thing ripped.. till I hit a tree with it like a dumbass.

 

Awd GSX or AWD VR-4 2.0L DOHC turbo?

 

Lots of people had those on 44 inch tires back in the day.

 

Now that's a good story. Had a cop clock me doing 45mph in a 25. I floored my awd 405whp talon through 1st into 2nd and let go when I saw him. He said his gun could not register fast enough till I shifted.

 

Not the same one as in pic but my first car was a 71 Ford LTD. It had a 351 Cleveland and loved to keep trying to make it faster. Front and back seats were each about the same size as a couch. Good times.

The cars live on in the background of Dirty Harry movies where I'm sure they still get a few gallons to the mile.
