Your first car?

Watched a few of the Mecam auto auctions lately. Wonder what this, (my first car) would go for these days. Passed it down to my little brother, who later sold it. He kicks his own butt regularly about that. LoL What was your first car?

1989 Ford Escort in blue. It had a butterfly decal on the back (main reason why I picked it :laugh: ). It was shift stick so I was taught how to drive stick shift in my own first car.

Oh man.. the adventures I had in that car. I'd pack it up with tons of my friends.. get high. You'd open the windows and huge clouds of smoke would ooze out. :drinker:

Yup. Crazy times.

My first car was an 87 grey daytona, but I never got to drive it. My dad got rid of it and got me an 89 black shadow before I even got my license. I was crushed, I loved the daytona. I used to go out and sit in it in the driveway and start it up. lol
The shadow was a good car thought, it drove like a go-kart.

It was amazing how many kids I could fit in that car-no seatbelts and including the trunk when going to the drive in :laugh:

When I was in high school I shared a car with my mom. A 1973 Pinto. She used it for work on weekdays, and I used it evenings and weekends. She made the down payment and we split the payments. We each paid our own insurance. Once I was out working I bought my first car. A 1975 AMC Gremlin X. It was a lousy car, but I loved it.

First car I bought myself was a 1995 black Ford Explorer and i LOOOOOVED that car! It was a huge step up from the Reliant lol

My first car was a 1972 Skylark convertible.
Well, "Convertible" is a bit of a misnomer.
It USED to be a convertible but, the top had rotted away long before I got it so now it was just "topless"
400.00 and a few weekends to get it running and it was all mine.

93 Ford Thunderbird, 5.0. And it could fly. Got popped for 85 in a 55, truly thought I was going to jail. I miss having sports cars, but I certainly don't miss being a target.

My first car that my parents bought me was a 1984 Ford something....it was a piece! But, I thought I was cool. The first car I bought myself was a 2001 Mitzubitzi (sp?) Galant....that car was amazing....had for 8 months, crashed it in a horrible snow storm.

My first car was an old Chevy, Lumina.

It was as long as a boat, had no rear view mirror and would suddenly stop when I made left turns so I can to plan all my trips with right turns only!!!! Drove it for about 6 months before my parents realized I had finally learned to drive and I deserved a better car : )

Hater that "boat" at the time but it was a great experience and i have some very interesting stories to tell : )

'77 Buick Lesabre...4 doors, red with a V8 engine. It had over 100K miles and rusted through holes in the floorboards (convenient ashtray for the backseat) and a hole in the door where the lock once was (you just stuck your finger in and moved the bar over to 'unlock' it)...LOL!

Many good times were had in the big red boat though

newbeetler

1982 Vauxhall Astra.

It was a stormer of a car.

1 careful lady owner

1 Newly passed teenager who rolled it over at 65 MPH and then lovingly rebuilt it just to have the drive shaft go.

Scrapped it and watched my mate put it in the crusher.

It was chocolate brown in colour and earned the nickname turd lol.

cessnaholly

Red 86 ford escort wagon. exhaust holes inside the car so i had to drive with the windows open and wipe the soot off the inside of the windows. holes in the floor let water in and freeze on the car floor in the winter. had a few times my school books froze to the floor overnight. 1 qt of oil per week.

Then a 73 dodge dart with duct taped heat hoses that didn't work. The engine would cut out whenever i went down a big hill. had to use carb cleaner to get it started sometimes. no heat. It was called "The Neil Mobile." Bought it for $150. Sold it for $200.

82 ford escort. a bit rusty, but that car just wouldn't die!
