What was your first car?

[cbscandal]

My first car was the one you see in my sig and I'm glad I got it. Led me straight to this forum and allowed me to meet many new people and friends.

DX FTW!

This is pretty much the direction I'm going in when I have more money.

I had one of these.


Until my step-dad wrecked it and bought me my first 93 LX sedan.

My first Whip was a 87 GMC sierra classic.
And I still have it. I love these kinda trucks.
Original and classic.

My first car was a 1986 Toyota Celica GT-S coupe, but red, not like the silver one the guy had on page 1.

Sweet.

I also ended up getting an '87 GTS fastback as well, but that thing was a haggard pile. I used some parts from the silver one to fix it up a bit, but I ended up spinning a rod bearing due to a massive oil leak.

Mine was a 1992 Chevy Cheyenne 1/2 ton truck. I miss that truck, It got wrecked by a Blazer.
This is what it looked like when we bought it, thats my dad standin by it.

[KpoweredCB7]

was the '87 fast back a carburated engine? My Celica threw it's number 2 rod.

My first car was a 95' celica gt convertible, wish I never sold it. My second car is the the picture also.

[DIRTY DAVE]

my first was a 1977 chevy nova 2 door with a inline 6 and a massive hole in the side of the block. lol. the car was given to me, when i found the hole after driving it and wondering why it leaked oil so damn much, i gave it away to a buddy... I like Chevy's, but I LOVE Hondas. But like they say, "You gotta Crawl before you can Walk"

[H-TownCB7]

1972 Ford Ltd convertible sitting on 15x9.5 layed low but traded for a Kenwood dump truck at age 16 hard time backthen lol

[Noridetoolow]

69 VW Beetle, other than a custom silver to grey to black paint job it was all stock. 1500cc single port motor and the floor board on the pass side was so rusted that we could drop a 32ox McDonalds cup in the floor and it would roll out the hole! lol (Oh and that was while you sat on the seat and watched the road pass below you). I was rusted from the center hump all the way to the front edge of the pass seat.....amazing what you will do when your 18 and stupid

The first car that was truly mine was my 1986 Nissan Pulsar:


Bought it off a friend for $350. He'd bought it from another friend for $200, put $150 into it and then sold it to me when his GF got a car. After they broke up, I gave him the spare key (after all, he was always fixing it with me - that's how I started off learning most of what I know).

I drove it for two years until I found out the rear shock mounts were completely surrounded with rust and the sides of the rear wheel wells were so rusty that gentle tapping made the rust fall out... with the rear seat folded down, I could see the rear tires turning when I drove.

I learned a lot owning that car... being a student, I did not have the money to take it to a shop, so I learned how to fix it myself (with help from my buddy). About 4 months after my friend moved away, the slushbox died. I swapped in a manual because it was the only transmission I could find in local junkyards. After it was in, I then taught myself how to drive stick.

My only previous stick experience was 5 min driving a civic in a parking lot up to 2nd and about 40 min in a Massey-Ferguson tractor (with hand throttle) around a farmyard in 1st and R.

Those cars are awesome! My dad used to have either an 85 or 86 pulsar TURBO. That car was awesome. He blew the turbo in it atleast 3 times though.
