What was everyone's first car?

[PrOpAiN]

My first car was given to me by my grandmother, unfortunately after my uncle passed on. It was a 1979 Ford Fairmont with a Straight Six. He paid $200 for it... He bought it from my brother inlaw's grandmother. Oh how I miss the good times I had in that car.

1986 Buick GNX

Do you mean a 1987 GNx? Buick only made them in 87. Unless you had a modded 86GN...either way...turbo g-bodies are badass.

Anyway...here's my first car...1970 Chevelle SS396...bought in 1986...totalled in 1989:

It would be nice if we said when we were born in this thread because IMHO it means everything!! First daily driver was a 1974 Ford Elite. At the same time my sister had a 77 Camaro which I drove alot. First car I bought on my own was a 1985 Mustang GT Fastback. Bought in 1985 just before turning 19. I have never bought anything non Ford.

[Lincolnpimpin]

My first car was a 1971 Ford F100 with inline 6 3 on the tree. Also NO power steering and power brakes. Practicle a giant piece of metal like half of these guys. Then the motor Died on me and got me a 289 Ford Galaxy motor.

1967 Chevell SS-396 four speed, 355 posi with Headmond Headers. Very fast and fun. No traction no brakes.

Woulda loved to have met your TR3 on the road with my lite snack. Six cyl. MGC with a .60 overbore. 3/4 race cam, triple SU's, Pirahna ignition, two speed elec overdrive and water injection. Ran it on some very fat rubber mounted on Minilites that would only fit after the suspension was worked and all four corners were flared. Routinely embarassed the sh*t outa the local muscle car drivers in front of their dates.

[Fastbird]

1984 Pontiac Firebird SE -- Bought with $3000 of my own hard earned and saved cash from bagging groceries. Bought it in February of 1996. Traded it in that November for:

1991 GTA Trans Am -- I miss that car. Traded it in May of 1999 for:

1999 Trans Am (Brand New) -- Sweet ride, but embedded with problems. Lemon lawed that car in February of 2000 and in march 2000 bought:

1993 Trans Am (still have) -- This car is my toy, baby, and bane of my existence, all at once. Then, in October 2001, I added my beater/daily driver:

1989 Toyota Celica (still have) -- Free, 34 MPG, nuff said. Then a deal came along in June of 2003 for:

Another 1993 Trans Am (still have) -- Fully modded (heads, cam, ect) and got it for $6000. And lastly, in December of 2004, we got

the 2000 Lincoln LS. Refinement and fun all wrapped into one of the nicest cars I've had the pleasure of being around, save for multiple expensive trips to the dealership who doesn't know how to diagnose a fuel pum issue.

 

[TaraLS]

1993 Pontiac Firebird - black, leather, fun car. For some reason I traded for a cavalier and then for my LS. :L

 

[ohioLS]

Sorry to be rude but the topic or title of the thread was: What was everyone's first car? Not list every car you have owned. Just poking fun no harm done.

[91lincTownEx]

[Fordman]

I'm still broken hearted... 1966 Mustang GT Convert. K code 271 H.P. Bought in 1972 for $500.00 sold in 1975 for $550.00.. They weren't worth anything back then. A dime a dozen in the newspaper... But I replaced it with a 1973 Mach 1... 351 Cleveland... And then that got totalled... I had so many I can't count that high.
