First Car

[bleedinbrown58]

1959 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 station wagon.

BB's Lincoln would have fit in the back with room to spare!

my dad had a 1975 Oldsmobile...don't remember the model...that thing was a tank...lol

1954 Chevy when I was 16. I had a lot of fun with that car and also got into a lot of trouble. Mine was black & white with fender skirts but no continental kit.

1966 Chevy Biscayne. Like this but uglier.

A beautiful 1996 Jeep Cherokee. I was planning on restoring it and doing all kinds of nice stuff to it until it rolled. I've considered repainting my Harley or getting a new Challenger done in the same paint code.

1981 black "bandit" Trans Am. I got it when it was 6 months old and paid $8700 in 1981. I sure wish I could find it back.

1981 was the last year of the second generation friend body. The smaller 3rd gen cars arrived in 82.

My first car was 84 Plymouth Horizon. About as stylish as a brick but it ran pretty good.

 

[brownmonster]

69 Pontiac station wagon.

 

[Rainman]

65 Ford Maverick. 6 cylinder, most of the time it ran on 5. When I sold it I upgraded to a Pinto.


Kmart sux. So does Walmart. And Orion.

?? Maverick came out as a 1970 model. I had a 74 2door with the 200 six and automatic. It wasn't cool, but you never saw me broke down. 25 mpg on the highway. My skills made it a lot better than what it could have been.

My dad had a 72 Maverick with the six and three on a tree. Not a bad looking car but basically a piece of junk.

1979 Pontiac Grand Prix. Baby blue, bucket seats, shifter in the floor, landau roof and factory mag wheels.

I wasn't impressed with the front suspension that was completely shot at 70k. Noisy too, with flat rear springs. Some helpers for a half ton helped a lot.

87 Pontiac Fiero v6 loved that car thought of picking one up a couple of years ago but came around to my senses
