My first was a Celebrity Wagon I do miss it some time. Then it was the Ranger, Cougar, and the Asspirate.

The first I got to drive was an 87 caravan that was running by the grace of god.

My black '86 GS. This picture shows the car after some of the modifications I had performed, such as the Cragar wheels (hence my user name).
This was back in 1998.

There's a guy at work that has an old Model A that use to belong to his Grandpa. He's restored and it looks pretty good for a model A.

NICE!

Except for my 1st car, most of my 1st 6 or so cars were pretty junky to begin with. 1st nice car I ever had was my 76 mustang II. It was in really good shape, before I drove off the highway one day with it. Long story. About a year later I had a 77 mustang II 4 cylinder 4 speed. Car was a total piece of junk. It was in such bad shape that I use to write on it with my keys. The drivetrain on it wasn't any better either. I paid more in parts than I did for the car.

I lost most of the pictures of my old car when my old computer crashed.

This is one of the few I have left. 1990 2.3L Mustang. Slower than slow, but it handled pretty good. I got it my senior year of high school, drove it year-round for 5 years before it pretty much succumbed to rust. I sold it for $100 to some guys for parts in 2005.

The first car I really truly drove that was "mine" was my dad's old '88 Reliant, which was an awful turd (and looked like one), but it was never in my name and I only drove it for about a month.

This was my first car, 1982 Escort 1.6L 4-speed.
I bought it my junior year in high school and I needed a co-signer for the loan. My friends had cool cars, '57 Chevy, Cutlass 442, Camaro, but my parents wouldn't co-sign for the loan unless it was a non-performance, practical car.
We always drove my car to the car shows & swap meets because it would get 40+ mpg easily and it was the most reliable. With gas prices nowadays, I miss it.

My second car is the one in my signature, I bought it in December of '87. Since I didn't need a co-signer anymore, I bought the car I wanted. :D

My grandparents had one like that in gold. It just wouldn't die:hick: . They had a really nice 1980 Olds 88 Royale they used for special ocasions and long distance trips and the escort was their "in town" car.

My first car was an 1984 Buick Regal that my brother gave to me. The oil pump went out in it after about 2 months of driving. Thanks bro.

My first car(that I actually drove...had 3 others that never quite made it) was actually an '84 F-150 with the 300 inline 6 and the NP-435 4-speed...for those who don't know has no OD and 1st is a super granny gear. I was super proud of it because I paid the $575 for it out of my own pocket. There was quite a bit of rust and I used probably close to 4lbs of filler on it...lol. Was partially red and partially primer gray.

First mod...lakewood slapper bars that actually pre-loaded the springs, worked like magic. Second mod...straight piped the ler with a rectangular Z28 tip tucked up nicely. Third mod...exhaust fell off, cut off rear cat, front cat was hollow already so on went a 3" pipe that exited at the passenger side rear corner of the cab.

That truck suprised the hell out of a lot of riced out civics...lol. I still miss it every now and then. I drove it for 3 days with a broken clutch fork...I ended up snapping the shifter off in the trans from jammin gears.
