What was everyone's first car?

My first two cars were Gremlin's. A '70 then a '74. Yeah they suck, but good cheap transportation for a high schooler and you can fix one with a hammer, duct tape and a pipe wrench.

I had a '75 Rabbit, '76 Cutlass, '80 Toyota 4X4, and then came the Fords. '88 Mustang, '89 Ranger 4X4 (had it for 13 years) and a '95 T-Bird which I bought new and still have.

I just bought an '05 LS last week and my wife has a '07 Outlander 4WD
 
1949 Ford Club COUPE

My first car was a 1949 ford club coupe black with aflathead v/8, and I bought it for $35.00 . july of 1957, and I had it until I ran into the back of a bus a year later.
That was when I learned about keeping your eyes on the road and not on my girlfriends legs.::rolleyes:
 
Didn't know they made mark viii's in '89. Try the "auto parts for sale" forum.
 
1987 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 handed down from my older brother. You've probably hear of it "The Ranger". You know, it made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs.

I loved that POS. It killed me to get rid of it.

Is there a smily with a single tear running down its cheek?

First Car

:) 1949 Ford convertible (purchased in 1958 when 16 yo) - repainted it powder blue, nosed, decked, lowered, fender skirts, flames painted on sides, dice hanging from mirror - a real fun chick machine. Wish I had it now. :D
 
A 1991 Ford Thunderbird. Had a big dent on the side and a broken window. When I lost it ::Sad Day:: I had fixed a lot of things. The dent was all that was left.
 
1989 Dodge Daytona ES

I got it in February 1998. I was only 16 and it was a 5-speed so it was really fun to drive. Speedometer goes to 125 and I got it there on multiple occasions. It's still sitting at my parents' house, but needs a fuel pump and windshield.
 
My first car was a 1992 Pontiac Grand Prix SE 2-door. It was pretty much the GTP, as it had the 3.4 DOHC and the body package on it. Just did not have the sports suspension. I had purchased the car in the summer of '01. It lasted me 5 mostly good years. I purchased my '00 Lincoln LS in the summer of '06.

I probably could have kept it longer, and to this day, I wish I had kept it instead of selling it to a friend for $500. :( Within a few months he had wrecked it. That saddened me seeing my first car being wrecked by someone else. The car was peppy, and I had always planned on doing some mods to it.
 
1988, saphire blue, Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme Classic. dark blue vinyl top. five spoke rally rims. 307 V-8 automatic transmission. Power moon roof, power windows, power seat, power mirrors, AM/FM casset. then i rolled it and walked away
 
First Car...a red 1966 Pontiac LeMans 2-door hardtop, ohc 6 with three on the floor. A real runner that I bought with only 47,000 miles in 1975 with $300 that I saved by mowing lawns.

The first FLM was a 1979 Mercury Cougar XR7. What a floater, and not too bad on gas with the 351 automatic.

Now we have my '99 Navi, the wife's 30K mile 2001 Mustang 'vert and the daughter's '03 Escape XLT...Ford family all the way!

My 1st car was an Orange 1972 or 1973 Lincoln Mark IV. Usually people lose change in their car, I however lost a lot more than that during my cruising days before the tranny went out! That car was nice! It also featured the half tonneau top, power seats, locks, and windows!
