What was your first automobile?

[snugrooster]

1946 Mercury coupe........sweet!

 

[kmp77]

Black Nissan 1992 B2200...

Then a 1989 Nissan Pulsar after I totaled the truck....being 16 = dumb....

Mine did not have the 2 in 1 ram air but it pretty much looked like the one in the pic...same color.

1968 Firebird 350

It had Killer seatbelts......that were in a brown paper bag in the trunk lol.

I still kick myself in the butt for letting that car go.

Getting ready to go in the army and figured I would be gone and not be able to use it so I sold it......now I wish I would have kept it and sent some money home each month so my dad could take it somewhere and have it worked on.

I can relate to that "wanting to kick yourself in the butt" feeling... back when I was a teenager, Dad got transferred to Heidelberg, Germany... this was in 1967, and we had to wait about 3 months before we could follow him over... when he finally secured housing for us on base, we had 2 cars at home... we garaged the family car, and sold the second one...

The second one was a 57 Bel Air convertible... dual quad 283...

Cars like that, in BAD condition, will go for 30-40 grand these days... completely restored, you're looking at 60 grand plus... man, do I wish we'd never gotten rid of that one...

a 72 plymouth fury 3 with a 350 and a holly 4 bbl carb.it could fit 6 people across the backseat.....comfortably.

My second ex-fiancee owned one of those rascules... I can testify that you're exaggerating about six people in the back seat...

But there wasn't much that two people of the opposite sex COULDN'T do back there... :

I forgot about that jalopy......maybe it was because I was pushing it more than I was driving it.
