First car was a 1967 Dodge Coronet. It was trashed. My sister ran the heck out of it and sold it to me for $50. My dad and I got it running working on it in the drive.

Since then I’ve owned a lot of cars, most of them just utilitarian vehicles.

Favorite car, is a tie. A 1972 Camaro I had when I was 19, and the 1987 Corvette I currently own.

My first car was a Renault 4. Underpowered, difficult to brake, and lightweight to the extreme. It had two accelerator pedal positions, off and floored.

Man, I loved that car. It took me all over the place, and never let me down. I repaired it with hanger wire, shoe laces, handkerchiefs and a stick, and it always made it back from whatever adventure I was on.

What a great, and awful, car!
