I bought this 1934 Ford 2 dr sedan in 1976, it was a body & frame. I did everything except the paint. I was 16, this pic is 1980. I still have the car today.

Very nice. But needs large round headlights.

I bought a 69 Mach 1 for $500 as part of a school mechanics project. We rebuilt it over the school year,and I drove it for another two years.

My first car was a '62 Ford Fairlane 500. It had a 260 V8 with a Fordomatic 2 speed. I put a lot of miles and time in that car and had a lot of fun.

My dad had a blue '62 4 door Fairlane 500 with a 221 V8- seeing your car brought back some memories- :) it was probably 6-8 years old when he got it. Was in nice shape.

I tried "drifting" and slammed it into a rail.

Without that rail I would've ended up in the pacific ocean šŸ˜

Lol dumb 18 year old...

1992 Mercury Grand Marquis in white with the V8. Pretty quick beast for a 16 year old. Folks gave it me. Loved it because all the cop cars at the time were the Ford version and this looked just like one and people moved outta my way thinking I was going to pull them over.

Technically the *first* car I bought was a 1997 Mitsubishi Eclipse RS in silver. Was fun but wish I would have bought a GST or GSX.

Back in the old days, I worked part-time at my uncles used car lot. He got a lot of state patrol cars at auction, that we would clean up and sell. I bought a couple of them, myself. They were well maintained and nicely equipped. But, even cleaned up and with all of the state patrol markings removed, they still looked like cop cars. So, I also experienced cars getting out of my way. But, what I noticed even more was people slowing down in front of me. It was quite annoying!

First car was a 1966 Ford Econoline van I bought when I was 15 in 1972. Talked my parents into buying it before I got my learner's permit at 15 1/2. Swore I wouldn't drive it until I had that permit :). This was back in the van craze; dig the Budweiser curtains and pillows. Lots of fun in that van!
Haven't owned another Ford until I bought my GT350, wandered around with GM stuff for quite a while..

Yeah, some parents wouldn't let their daughters ride with me. But one girl friend, who managed to roof test her Capri and a 6 cylinder Camaro, finally got the ok. After those incidences, her parents figured she was better off driving with me than driving on her own.
