What was your first car ???

[Tomhusker]

1976 Mazda rx3. Paid my future mother in law $50 for it because it wouldn't start. $3 for new starter bushings and she was good to go. Drove it for about a year and sold it for $200.

Bought a new '79 Cutlass Supreme Brougham then put over 700,000 miles on it. Rode like a Cadillac as they used to say.

My first choice was a Plymouth Fury which was hot but too expensive at the time.

I turned down my dad's 1989 Jeep Grand Wagoneer and kind of regret that we don't have it anymore.

I bought a 1972 Chevy Nova from my sister's godfather. I loved that car...wish I still had that one too. This is right after we gave her some new paint and hood.

Mine didn't look like this, it was about 12 years old and a piece of sh*t. The previous owner took sh*t care of it so I only paid $600. I think it got me through my sophmore year of HS and we junked it.

best thing about my Nova was I got it for $2000 in 2000...or 1999...I forget

 

[RubinRock]

2004 Silverado. Bought it off my parents in high school and it ran pretty well til I sold it a year ago. Outside of one water pump leak, never had any major issues with it ever.
