So what was your first ride?

[fast306stang]

69 Camaro needing full restoration, drove it home and sold the engine out of it to pay for the bodywork that never happened. First car I actually got to drive was a 79 Camaro, 305 2bbl. Kinda miss that car.

I think I've had 30 something cars now but the first 15 or so I'd kill to have back...all 1st and 2nd gen F bodies, including three 4 speed cars...a 70 1/2 RS someone swapped a 396 into, 1980 Camaro with T-Tops and a 79 Formula Firebird with T-Tops...GM T-Tops are awesome...

I guess I am the old guy in here my first car I bought when I was 15 years old what is a 1938 Ford my dad came home and seen it in the driveway and asked who’s car is that and I told him it was mine. We didn’t have good cameras for picture taken back than so I don’t have any pictures of it

You want to talk about slow? I've never seen so many middle fingers as I did driving in this thing. Small non-turbo diesel.

Now that I'm older, I actually kinda miss it. A lot of...ahem...high school memories were made in that car.

Not my first car, but I had an ‘82 380SL and it was painfully slow. I had to use a calendar to check my 0-60 times. Looked damn good though. My wife hated it and said I needed to wear an ascot and smoke a pipe when I drove it.

1974 Jeep CJ5 with a built 304 in it. Would haul ass and would go thru damn near any mud hole. Fun ride till I rolled it.

Dang, you didn’t get your first car ‘til you were married?
You had some super strict parents.
Super cool first, though.

No, I was just showing my slow Mercedes after he mentioned how slow his Mercedes was. My first was a 1972 Gran Torino. Paid cash for it during my Junior year of high school

We offset my slow car with my buddy's convertible Impala. Cruisin' state st. in Utah in that thing paid off well.

These are super good trucks

I agree. I will have another one some day hopefully

1964 Rambler American - Flat Head 6 - Got it from my grandmother (For Reelz) - Kind of like this one. And lets not forget that I was driving it in 1986. So wasn't I the cool kid on the block... not. But it was a car.
