Your first vehicle?

'77 maroon, rusty-as-hell, Nova - w/ a moon-roof! You never forget your first!!!!

A 1983 blue Toyota pick-up my Uncle gave me because he was only going to get $2-300 in a trade-in for it.

Mine will be a Astrostar van in a couple of weeks...Geez Sax, are you wearing anything in that pic?!?

The first I actually owned was an '81 or '83 white Pontiac T1000. A Chevette replica. Except mine had a sweet WET FLOOR SIGN shoved down into the grill, and it had a huge drawing of a pig flying on the doors that read "PIGS FLY WEST." It made no sense, but we were drunk when we drew that and it made sense at the time. Haha.

1970 Plymouth Fury III

With leather seatcovers custom-made by my Mom.

The "Cruising Vessel" when I was in college.

1994 Chevrolet Cavalier. Man, I miss that car!!

1982 Plymouth Champ (same thing as a dodge colt) - a "captive import" and really a mitsubishi

197O Pontiac Tempest T-37. It paved the way for later GTO's (a '67, a '70, & a '71).

1978 Ford Thunderbird.

I live in Minnesota. We take it all off as often as the weather permits up here! haha

it was a 1983 Pontiac Pheonix. i was 13 years old.

1995 Holden Commodore VR....which is still my car now, too bad petrol prices prevent me from driving it much ($US 6.20 a gallon if my conversions are right).

1983 Ford LTD Crown Victoria

I drove a Holden down under. Pretty much an Aussie version of a Ford. I also bought an old Datsun that we had to put a liter of oil into every 150 miles. We called it "The Wombatt". When we left, I sold it back to the guy I bought it from for A$200 less. So, I basically rented a car for 3 months for about A$300! Helluva deal!

1979 Fiat X 1/9 5-speed
Fun car to drive, but it was in the shop more than on the road! Found out that FIAT means "Fix it again, Tony!" in Italian!

Not a bad deal i say.

Yes Holden's are great, particuarly for driving to the bottle-o (drive thru store that dispenses alcoholic beverages) to pick up a slab of VB (24 cans of native beer) while blasting the Angels outta the casette deck.

God i sound like a bogan (Australian white trash).....but it's true i'm a living breathing stereotype....and me owning a Holden V6 Sedan is the best example of this.

Bogan at the Bottle-O! Gotta be a song in that

Victoria Bitter. I think I drank a swimming pool of that while I was down there. Tried to get the stuff imported to the states when I came back and no one could do it. So back to Heinnies. Sucked at the time!

Back in 1984, yes I know 1984, I rolled a 1967 Oldsmobile NinetyEight. Metallic torquise, 4 door, power everything (even the trunk), big ole 425 ci engine with automatic for maximum cruisin."

This car was such a tank! 27+ feet long and I could at 6'2" lay down in the front or back seat (hell the trunk for that matter)(with the doors closed mind you) and be comfy comfy...

When I was in the UK I drove a Vauxhall that leaked gas when in use. No big deal, really, I lived close to the base. That was until someone in front of me tossed a cigarette out their window. Nothing quite like waiting to explode, let me tell you. I bought another $300 crapper the next day. Haha.

Mine was a 1992 Eagle Summit Hatchback that said "EAGLE" in capital letters on the windshield. I have always been this awesome.

1974 Dodge Pickup.It was two tone green with a yellow tailgate.It had huge holes in both doors were someone put on west coast style mirrors.Haha.But it ran great and didnt burn any oil so I was stoked.

79 Ford F-150, long bed 302. It had factory sliding back glass, 5 spoke mags, bed rails & the cool toolbox under the side of the bed. I had a kicker box behind the seat with a 100 watt amp & a 6 disc changer wired through the factory 8 track. It was a cool ride.

1996 Ford Escort (Atlantic Blue colour)

1973 VW Beetle...canary yellow. I bought it for $1000 and when I sold it I had invested an additional $2000 in parts & labor because it broke down every 3 days...

I think I sold it for $900
