Before or after I got my license? My first car was a 92 lincoln town car with 340000 miles, and I spun a crankshaft bearing on it.

My first car was a 1986 Yugo. Yea, of all cars. I was 21, fresh in the Navy and it was all I can get.

My first car which I still own, is a '77 Mustang II. Grandma bought it brand new. I've owned this car 10 and a half years now.

You do realize that your mark is actually longer and that car was based on the taurus I can't consider that a big ass car.

91 Explorer here also... Only had about 180-something but it was a decent truck! It was in rough shape when I first got it but after cleaning it up it wasn't too bad.

My very first car was a 1967 Ford Fairlane 500XL fastback. Baby blue with black deluxe interior with buckets and console. 390 2-bbl V-8 with Select-Shift Cruisomatic and power steering. No a/c or power brakes, and drums all the way around. Paid $600 bucks for it with 109K miles in 1986.
Unfortunately, I wrecked it. That was a sad day. The next car I got was a fully loaded 1967 Thunderbird with a 428 Thunderjet!
I wish I had more pictures, but that was way back before digital cameras and I didn't take as many photos back then. Darnit.

Oh man, me too! That '67 Bird was freakin' awesome! Fast as hell and super comfortable. It was loaded too. Power steering, power front disc brakes, power windows/door locks/seats/trunk, a/c, tilt away steering wheel, and the neato overhead console with lights and storage compartments. I love the look of the '67-'69 'Birds. Maybe it's that big, wide fishmouth grill
The rear quarter windows on that car were pretty neat. They didn't go down, they slid back into the C-pillar (or B-pillar, since it was a true hardtop and didn't have a post). I've never seen that before or since. I really miss that car. But if I could have one of them back, I'd take the Fairlane. That car was just sooooooo cool!

My first car was a 1965 VW Beetle. That was back in '76.
:shifty::shifty::shifty:
My previous rig before discovering the Lincoln Mark VIII was a '73 Ford Econoline van (E-200). Had a healthy 302, three-on-the-tree (used to love taking it in for new tires and watch the kid go nutz trying to find reverse), drove that sucker for 12 years.
One of my more memorable cars was my '71 Pontiac Bonneville. Silver, had a 455 in it, was a total cruiser. Awesome car. And I honestly cannot remember what became of that car. I know I didn't wreck it, but I can't remember selling it or trading it in, either. Wasn't stolen. Ever hit a total GAP like that? Scary, isn't it? :lol:
Drove it from Louisiana to Los Angeles, and in LA is where I lost track. Was probably loaded off my azz at Disneyland, and for all I know it's still sitting there in the parking lot.
