what was your first car?

[Sean88gt]

1981 Toyota Hi-lux SR5 4x4 with the 7' bed.

'62 Tbird, neat car. Shitty mileage and a broken gas gauge is a recipe for disaster. Junky Ford went for more than 300k miles.

[Frank]

72 Ford Capri (German). Still got it. Runs and drives but needs paint baaad.

[Z06killinsbf]

Technically my 66 Mustang but we were still restoring it when I got my license so I drove my GP's old 82 S-10 he gave me. I dropped it and started cleaning it up before I T boned a stop sign runner.

Yes, thats a scrap book picture courtesy of my wife....

My dad paid $1K for a 1978 Jeep CJ5 that was mine from age 14-16. Shortly after I had my license I got a 1986 VW GTI 16V. Both of them were POS, but I ragged the hell out of both of them so it didn't really matter.

It was my buddy's, and he had done some of the work. I bought it from him before we moved to Arkansas my junior year. The following summer, a jackass t-boned me and totaled the cab. I tore the entire truck down to the chassis, sand blasted everything, ran new lines, and painted it. I located a cab nearby, towed the rolling chassis over, and put the cab on. Once back, the real work began. The "new" cab was from a '61. This created all kinds of problems, the biggest being that the wiring harnesses were incompatible with each other. Between school, football, and chasing tail it would be after Christmas before I fired it up again. The bodywork and paint were done by spring break, and I drove it back to Texas after graduating.

I sold it later, got a new car, and I've regretted it ever since. I cut my teeth on that truck. I worked at Chief Auto Parts to fund it (largely with my discount) and did ALL of the work...including the paint and body....myself.
