My first car 15 years ago was a rusted-out '76 Monte Carlo, "The Beast." It was white with maroon interior and a 350/4bbl under that 6' long hood. I owned it for 9 months and beat the death out of it.
Now, 15 years later, I own an '88 Monte Carlo SS; it's also white with a burgundy interior. Funny how history repeats itself!
mehh go ahead make fun of it...girls loved it tho :wink:

1979 Ford Granada that my grand father gave to me only a very short time before he passed away. It was pretty cool cause you could shut the ignition off and walk into wawa come out the car would still be sputtering/ruinning. On I95 on the way to the shore on a friday afternoon rush hour the front tire left tire blew, I went across all three lanes and back into the grass median and never hit a car (My grandfather was definitely driving at that point cause i dont remember much of that) The tire couldnt of just blow it was a retread so the tread stayed on a quarter of the way and just flapped around ruining the whole fender/door/hood. Some guy came along and offered me a bit of money for it, so I sold it. Now I wish I had it back I guess for a sentimental reason. :(

PS- I had the Chevelle before the granada but it was not a driving vehicle at the time

my first car was a 71 nova, cool car i was 16 and would take my friends on hell rides late at night, my stepdad new and would just tell me not to get caught. i didnt have a liscense and the vehicle was uninsured with no registration. my uncle gave me that car, then i sold it to get a 72 chevelle. that was my first legit daily driver.

i had an 86 hyundai excel in high school. POS of a car to live with, but you couldn't kill the thing.
teh clock reset itself to 1:00 if the car was off for more than 20mins, iot had a motorcycle carb on it, wiring short in the steering column was fixed with "race car" push button start, and 0-60 was not always gonna happen.
the car did however once carry 13 people for about a mile, never got an oil change in the 3 years i drove it, and never left me stranded anywhere. so i guess it wasn't all bad. :)
lot of "firsts" in that car too :wink:
later

The 85 Camaro in my sig. Had a few hundred bucks in my wallet and needed transportation since I joined the Army Reserve while in college. Bought it from a gas station in Indianapolis, IN with broken idler arms. Drove it an hour back to Sears and had the arms replaced. Had a bunch of people standing around it wondering how I got back without loosing the front wheels.
Ahh the college days.

Well, my parents bought a 1985 Omni when I was 15, and that was destined to be my first car (Dad was using it as a commuter in the meantime - better milage than his '84 Silverado 350 4bbl). Just before I got my license, I bought an '85 Camaro (2.8L, blown head gasket). I drove the Omni for a week or two until the Camaro was fixed.
So I guess either one could be considered my first car....
