I owned one for about six months, my uncle gave it me when I turned 21, then I traded it in on 59 Chevy.
Really wish I had either one of those cars today.
However, I really loved my 56 VW Bug.
All the cars seem so ordinary these days (unless you have lots of $$$$$$$)
My first Car was a 55 Chevy 210 two door Wagon I bought for $100. I needed to put a new front end on it because it was in an accident. I bought the entire front end, (hood-fenders-grill) for $25.
A year later my Brother had a friend selling a 57 Chevy Coupe for $150. I went to look at it and the passenger side rear quarter panel was bashed in.
I looked at the guy and said, I can’t believe you’re trying to sell your Friend’s Brother (me) that piece of junk.
Hindsight is indeed 20/20. I don’t even want to think about the 69 Shelby Mustang I missed getting for $2,000...
