first ride...


second ride...

 

My first car was in 1983, a 1972 Bellair 4 door Chevy, with a 350!

It had only 12000 miles on it, and that old heavy car was darn fast. Seemed like it had a hot 350 in it.

1989 lx 5.0 hatch my dad bought it new in nov of 88 and got it in april of 99 first thing i did was headders and off road exhaust, crane fireball ignition, and some 3.73's oh and it was the project of my first paint job, black all around the bottom allthe top was candy blue with reflective silver base with flames going all down the side from the front fender to the back and fadded the tips slightly into candy purple, all was done in laquer paint to.

 

Beloved parents rewarded me with it in 99 for getting a full scholarship. 5 speed, regular cab, manual windows, manual locks, no air, 4-banger. IT has had 2 different bug deflectors, 3 different designs of tail light covers, 3 different bed covers, a contractor's cap( found it cheap and needed the locking storage, cant afford the fancy steel ones) and various other odds and ends youd expect a poor college student to have to settle for in the accessory department.

IT has moved me back and fourth to college for 4 years, 850 miles to Georgia for training for my first job ever, and from my parents' house to my first apartment. HAd 36K on it when I got it, now has 106. HAs had a little minor difficulties here and there but has never once failed to do what I needed to do and never actually broken down.

I think the most expensive year I ever had it, when I got brakes, timing belt, serpentine belt, and a couple oil changes, total maintenance was still no more than400 bucks or so for the year. The last 2 years it's been nothing but a 25 dollar oil change every 3-4 months.

HAs even outlasted 2 serious different girlfriends.

HAs hauled couches, cinderblocks, 2x4s, every personal posession I own, and bucnches of friends on late night campus 'hay rides.'

I talk about how it's time to reward myself with a bigger truck with all the latest features and gadgets and that 'bling', and stop sweating my *** off every summer and having to reach across the cab to work the passenger side locks and windows. But the fact is I know Ill cry when I finally have to get rid of my Ranger.

 

My first car was a 65 Falcon 2dr hardtop. I still have it 20 years later. I have built it twice and started to pro street it in the early 90's, but we had a baby and it has sat since then . I will finish it but i have so many ideas and they all are to expensive right now not to mention my wife dosnt understand the whole "car" thing. I am down to 4 vehicles now and she has hers.

 

My first was a 1971 Dodge Demon 340, 4 spd, 3.91 rear. After I got finished adding cam, 5.13 rear, 850 dbl ppr, etc., etc., I bought a beautiful 69 Dart GT 340 4 spd, red w/blk vinyl top 3.91.....to drive on the street. I want another one.

I hope to get one of these Darts---see link below.
