I thought it would be interesting if anyone would state what was their first car :grin: and tell some things about it.....
1965 Mustang with 130,000 miles on it. 289 w/ 3 speed on the floor. maroon with white interior. That motor was bulletproof. I tried to tear it up, but couldn't. It just kept running. Finally sold it to a friend of mine and he put another 100k on it.
I had a 7 year old Escort GT 4 speed in '89. It had been wrecked and the body looked like crumpled newspaper. I fixed it and beat...er, drove it for a year. I used to take it down dirtbike trails. The throttle started sticking and after a minor accident I sold that car for 200 bucks and used that as part of the cash I used to buy a '70 Skylark Custom convertible.
I had a 88 Cavalier RS with a hood scoop... primer grey.. with a 4 cyl. was only a 500 dollar car tho...
1984 Buick Regal Limited. Beat the hell out of the 305, darn thing would never say die. I'll have this car forever Marc
1970 Buick Skylark Custom 350 2 barrel. Loaded, had all the chrome and 14" ralleye wheels. Drove it till the frame rotted through:ball: Michigan winters aka. salt. Started my great love of buicks. Take care
FIRST CAR I was lucky, my first car is my 71 GS 455! At a tender age of 16. A friend had a 70 Skylark with a built 350 & it ran well. I said i had to get one of these. During algebra class a friend of mine found my GS in a auto trader mag. looked at it that weekend & bought it. I owned her for 21 years. Randy
First car I owned was a 1973 MGB-GT. It's the coupe version of an MG. Genuine 4-banger with dual Strombergs (Ooohhhhh). Bright red with black interior. Mother drove it into a hole that was being dug in the road while I was away in the Army. I guess it made a nice filler for the hole. Broke the frame right in half and all kinds of other nasty stuff. Oh well.
A 70 GS455, bought it 2 months before my 16th birthday. Sold that one, and since then have bought two more (see my signature). All of this from working at a grocery store and hobby shop. Life is good when you drive buicks every day :bglasses: .
Mine was a 76' Pontiac Astre.What a hunk of junk.It was only fast going down hill with a 100 MPH wind at your back.It was Pontiacs answer to the Vega.Not much of a reply in my book if you ask me !!!:grin:
No problem Heather! Sometimes cool topics like this get buried because of that '30 day rule' and they are really hard to find. Happy reading :beer Are you a 'V8Buick-a-holic' yet? :Brow:
