Datsun 510 Wagon, took my license in it. 4 speed, with the patented 8" throw (side-to-side that is). Was a hand-me-down. Eventually sold it to the junk yard for $35.00.

Then bought my aunt's 74 Duster. Slant six, auto, buckets, AM radio, and crank open sun roof. Also had the knurliest black rims with silver center hubcaps. Purchased for $700.00 sold two years later for $400.00 with coolant on the dipstick and oil on the bottom of the hood.

I think that is when I earned my screen name or something.

Actually it was a 1937 Olds 2dr Sedan bought for $15.00 with a blown rear end @ 15 years old. Put in a junk yard rear drove it for 2 years saved enough money working after school and weekends to buy a 1957 Chevrolet Convertable (repoed from bank for $440.00). Sold the 57' 2 years later for $2000.00 and joined the Navy.
Boy I wish I had the 57' today ($25,000+) at auctions.

1968 Chevy Nova
Str8 6, 3 on the tree
Looked like a POS but that was one bullet proof car.

 

'83 Chevy Citation X-11

My late father bought this with the intention of me buying it 2 yrs later in '85 when I got my license. He passed away before I turned 16...but my mom kept the car, I paid her a decent sum and I drove that thing everywhere.

To this day I have yet to own a car that I put more miles on...85+k. (got rid of it when I graduated college in '90 and bought my '90 LX).

The car didn't give me a lot of trouble like many of the X-cars did. I had to replace the carb at 70k miles, but other than that it ran great...which is amazing since I didn't know squat about cars. I knew you should change the oil, rotate tires, and put gas in it. I think it had the original brakes and belts when I sold it.

I toted lawn equipment in the hatch each and every summer when I'd mow lawns to make money. The car was maroon in color with maroon interior. When I was a soph. in college I had the exterior painted silver. Looked pretty cool, although I'm sure I'd consider it a "ricer" if I saw it today.

my first was a fastback mustang (dont know what year). dad and i were supposed to fix it up so i could learn to drive.. i didn't care about working on it or driving at the time, so he sold it. i never drove it.

my second car (1989) was a '78 nova with a 307 V8 (i think) and 26000 original miles. dont know what moved faster, the speedometer or the gas guage.

1978 White AMC Gremlin, 258ci straight 6. Had bias-ply tires on it, and would spinout if I took a corner at anything over 5 mph. I hated that POS, it almost killed many times. Was known as "Grim Reaper" cause everyone thought it was going to kill me.
