What Was Your First Vehicle?

[Runwildboys]

I seem to recall some huge guy (movie star I think, Andre the Giant or maybe it was Richard Kiel) where they took the driver side seat out of I believe an old Civic and the guy sat in the back seat to drive rofl.

Are you thinking of Hightower in Police Academy?

The first vehicle that was actually mine, bought by me and not a hand me down was a 1987 Buick Grand National. Still my favorite car to this day.

Dad owned one. I was around 8 at the time my mom and I got in a crash. Idiot cut us off trying to turn left at the light when he's supposed to yield. It didn't look like much damage to the corner bumper of the GN, but the other car looked like a boulder just flew straight into the passenger door - guys wife was the passenger so I'm sure that didn't last unless intentional :/

1973 International Scout in sky blue. Baddest truck I ever had. It's nickname was the Magic Bus.

First vehicle to drive was the 1973 Ford Thunderbird in the three gold color scheme.

With the 460 it would pass everything except the gas station and burnt a quart of oil every other tank

First car I bought was a 1973 Mustang Fastback

No A/C and was slow but easy to work on.

The 302 burnt a little oil but returned about 18mpg on the highway.

Great car. My father had a gold one, and put a cap on the back and took out the back window, so it was like a sporty Blazer.
