What was everyone's first car?

I had a 1980 International Scout.

Didn't take it off road much. But should have. I wasn't real fond of it at the time... it leaked and died at stop signs on rainy days. And the add on A/C was not good enough to keep you cool in the Texas summers. But... now i'd like to have one again.
 
1997 Ford Taurus GL...you know, the bulbous insect looking ones. Whatever, it was given to me by the grandparents so it was a cheap ride and it gave me $3k to trade in on my current LS! I still have fond memories of it though, it broke a lot but it was my car and I will always hold it dear to my heart (I just won't ever buy another Taurus! :) )

2001 LS V8 Premium - Cyprus Green, K&N filter

How about an Allstate, made by Henry J and sold by Sears. I gave $8.00 and a fishing rod for it. Later traded up to a Crosley station wagon.

Old Poop's first car

1964 Mercury Comet - Stright six and 3-on-the-tree, gawd-awful-touquoise (teal to you younger kids) in most places. Open road concept (you could see the road when you moved the floor mat). Mods: GT stripes above the rocker panels to make her go faster and to hide the rust.
The car pictured was not mine but, it could have been it's twin :D

Not that old, the Henry J was a 52, I think the Crosley was a year older, but it had the propeller on the grille so I had to have it.
 
62 Galaxie 500

292 Y-Block Auto....hated the 2 speed auto so I transferred clutch assy. bellhousing,everything necessary and 3 speed from a wrecked Galaxie wagon then got a Spark-O-Matic floor shifter from JC Whitneys! Oh yeah and Thrush glasspacks w/duals. Was much cooler then.

I like this guy he is on the same page as me,try having 20+ cars at once and filling the gas tanks and restoring them to sell for a profit and not having the village come after you for all the cars around your house what fun

I couldn't blow that thing up no matter how hard I tried. Which is why I now use a Honda Accord for my winter car.

My first was a 1971 Mustang Mach I

My Aunt gave me her "BEAT TO :q:q:q:q" Mach I. Grey exterior, and Grey interior(was white, but she had little kids). It was automatic with a 351 Cleveland. I sold her to get money for college (all $300 I got out of her back in 1982). The guy I sold her to, restored her and painted her Canary Yellow. To this day I still see the car around town.
