What was your First Car?

My truck was white, "fixed" the bodywork and had it painted red (wasn't my choice, father paid for an Earl Scheib paintjob). I did learn a lot working on that thing.

 

2002 Tacoma 4x4 v6 Trd off-road with Fox 2.0’s with Resi’s.
Saved up and bought it cash for 7500$ When I was 17, then black ice, high speed, a telephone pole, and a kick flip happened
March 2017 March 2018

 

Mine was a badass 85 Toyota 4x4, I miss that truck everyday.

 

A little closer to this..lol
Still not mine

 

Love those trucks mostly all metal

 

Are you going to apply these parts to another?

 

Pics please even if not yours

 

My great grandmother gave me her 1966 Ford Galaxie 500XL with a 352W in 1984. I sold it in 1988. Typical "I wish I still had that car" story.

 

1968 Chevy Camaro with a Big Block 396 bored 30 over to make it a 402. Sold the car/engine at 16.5 y/o and bought an 82 Toyota truck. Never looked back.

 

Feb. of 2009, 17 year old me, rocking the Jean Jacket... 1982 Ford Bronco, with bald mix-matched 35's (swapped for 33" BFG AT's) 302, rust, bondo, 4 different paint colors with Walmart special Black rattle can paint as the top coat, leaked every fluid, completely new suspension and brakes by the end of Senior year... but never any body work/fixing leaks, just had a box of cheap oil and cardboard on the ground... fun times.

 

Yew! That a boy

 

You had that car. Story of its own

 

Story has Luis wanted his name taken off that brand

 

Had a 5.7 engine it. I thought this thing was the fastest thing on the road in its day. She was a great truck.

 

Haha this is awesome. Two of my buddies had similar Volvos when I was in high school. One was a wagon in a horrible shade of brown, and the other was a sedan he painted racing stripes on. Slower than molasses and built like a brick shithouse, actually the perfect first car. At one point, my sister rear ended my buddy in her 91' Subaru. Not a scratch on the Volvo, the Subaru was totaled. I have a lot of good/funny memories of those cars.

 

1969 Hugger Orange Camaro

Purchased it when I was 14, cost was $1200, no engine or trans.
Put a 327 and 4 spd Saginaw trans in it at 15, drove it till I was 17...
Bought a mini truck S-10 to drive and worked on the Camaro as a project till I was 21/22
Tubbed it, re-badged it as a z/28 SS/RS (added the stripes, hidden headlights and cowl hood at that point) shoehorned in a 427 L88 motor my motocross mechanic sold me after he wrecked his 67 Corvette, backed that with a Rock Crusher 4 speed Muncie and a narrowed Posi GM 12 bolt.
Sold it when I was 22 for $24,500 Since then I think it has passed through a few hands... I cry a little every time I think about selling that car. you live and learn...

This isn't the car (at least I don't think it is) but it looks identical, right down to the wheels.

 

1972 Beetle

Not my pic but it looked exactly like this. I secretly would like to get another one and do a restomod.

 

Sold the truck minus the wheels sub and amp for 3500$ the day after I crashed it, and bought an 05 back in April
