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.

    My first car was a 1980 camaro. My ex-husband took out the 305 and replaced it with a 350. It was an awesome drive!

    First care I drove was actually my dad's, a 1986 Plymouth Reliant HATED that car but it drove like a champ! My dad finally had to retire it when it rolled over 350,000 miles lol. 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.
