Your first car

Dogtag · 10-10-2012, 01:47 PM

In high school I got a 63 chevy van; three on a tree. I was able to use it for school and work.

After I was hit the third time in my moms 1995 (give or take a year) they finally gave it to me with the insurance money to fix up. It looked like the one in the pick. We did all the body work and a guy sprayed it for $50 in a storage shed and it was one of the best paint jobs I had seen back in the days.

Nice. You're the winner.

I'm still driving it.

02 Accord. Yes the picture is mine.

When I started driving I had to tool around in my older sister's Geo Storm. It looked just like this:

Then for my 17th bday my parents got me an awesome '83 Chevy Blazer - only a year younger than me:

Except mine had bad ass old school Chevy rally wheels.

Introducing Goldy.

Goldy had a sagging head liner. Naugahyde seats. No discernible ac. And a V6 that drank fuel and handed it out to nearby vehicles for free I think.

94 240sx sunroof-AC. Good times.

Am I really the first Ford Taurus on this thread? That thing was a POS.

Blue 89 Escort. loved it. The upper dashboard light could be removed was a hiding spot. I got a small glass bowl stuck up there and when you took sharp turns you could hear it rattle and slide in the hood from side to side.

My 3rd car (the first one I actually bought) was a '96 Ford Taurus. It was pretty goofy looking, but it actually wasn't a bad car.

skinsguy · 10-11-2012, 01:36 PM

1986 Mercury Sable

I want to add that this is the exact color and everything of my first car! Started driving it in 1991.

1988 Chevy Cavalier Coupe looked just like this, but Navy Blue

Sagging headliner that I eventually cut out, so tiny piece of yellow foam would fall all over the place. Driver's seatframe was f'ed (warping the chair to the point where you couldn't sit straight), so I had to replace the driver's seat twice. About two weeks after I replaced the driver's seat the 2nd time, I got T-Boned at the intersection of Route 355 and Shady Grove Road in Gaithersburg MD by a lady that was heading home from her Holiday Party. Car got me through high school and my first semester of college. Use to regularly pile 5-6 people in to go places. Fun times...

I thought you had a Mercury Topaz? Was that after the Taurus?

Daseal · 10-11-2012, 02:59 PM

Yeah, that was my upgrade!

Then to the Acura CL. Miss that CL.
