What was your first car?
Posted on 05/31/2014 7:27:43 AM PDT by virgil283
My first car was a Belair, four door with the big six. It might have been rusty but I waxed and polished it just the same......

...I bought it with the money from my first job, and was almost dizzy after putting that much money on anything.
The transmisson was worn so I had to learn to double-clutch, which is actually easy once you've cracked it.
The window gaskets leaked so in a heavy rain water would collect in the floorboard, you woulsn't know until you hit the brakes and it woul rush foward. So I drilled some holes in the back floor to let it out.
What was your firsdt car ?

I had a little molded rubber sports car. It was just large enough that I could not get it in my mouth when I chewed on it.

1954 Chevy 4 dr w/Powerglide.
It had a large, oil filled air cleaner that I guess was a Chevy item.
I don't recall ever actually changing the engine oil. Just kept adding as needed.

Very similar to this color and model, a 1969 Pontiac LeMans which was about 12 years old at the time.

A yellow 1979 Mini.
I loved that car. Still running as of last year.
Everything since has just been transportation.

1972 Nova SS, 350, 4 speed, no power steering, air shocks in the back to jack it up. It was that orangey-rust color that’s making a comeback.

My brother had a Galaxy XL 500 with more of everything including his own addition of a ten(?) disk, drop-down 45 record player.
Not much good on the road, but soooo sweet for the sub races.
