First Car Stories
 

Whats was your first car and is there a somewhat interesting story attached to it. I'll kick this off...

My first car is the car I still drive today (in the sig.). A semi-rich couple up in Warren was selling it for 2500 and I jewed em down to 2 grand..mint condition with 139k on the ticker. So halloween night almost 2 years ago is when i bought her...i took the plate off my dads ram 1500 and put it on the back of the bird and drove it off the mountain. Good thing no cops ran the plate lol...

So this halloween will be the 2 year aniversary for me and Fiona:)

my first car was an 84 z28 bought it for 400 bucks, pulled the 305 out put in a mild 350 ran a 12.3 and i beat the hell out of it, doughnuts and burns every where. by the end it would brake down nearly everyday and id be up to 2am trying to get it running so i could get to school in the morning. drove it for a little over a year and sold it blown up for $1000. kinda miss it at times it was fun not caring how it looked just how fast it went.

1994 Chevy Caprice

my neighbor was moving out to bumblef*ck and they were only taking one car
he said i could have it for a case of beer, i gave him $20 and moved it into my driveway

it sat for a year and then i cleaned her up and beat the crap out of it
finally got rid of it when the trans went and every place i went wanted a small fortune to fix it

so i had a little fun with it before it was towed out of the driveway

1979 Ford Granada was the first car I drove when I turned 17. My Grandfather gave it to me, it was a I6 4door, and only had 40k miles on it. I drove it until I was 18 and a tire blew out on 195 heading down the shore, and I sold it shortly after. I could turn the key to the off position, run into wawa, get an iced tea and come back and toss the key back in the ignition before the motor fully shut off. It dieseled so bad and we could never get it to stop. I really wish I still had it, because it had a 9" rear in it, and woulda been a good sleeper for my 460 and c6.

The first car I ever bought was the Chevelle when I was 13-14. I cut lawns for 3 summers straight and saved every dollar from birthdays, holidays, and what not and bought it off a guy in Princeton for $800

1972 pontiac gran ville - wanna talk land yachts? 455 poncho motor, swapable with the 6l trans am motor (ask me how i know). at a little over 2 tons, it still ran a 14.7, without dad's knowledge or approval, natch. the car had air shocks in the back, which i proceeded to fill to the max, giving the car a nice '70s rake... had to reposition the headlights because the ***-end was so high in the air...

best story is i liked spinning the right drive tire, smokin it up big time. one time, with a passenger, i spun the left side (wasn't ready for it, never had it happen before, didn't know how to react...) and basically **** myself. it zigged, zagged and finally came to rest on top of a water main access pipe off the side of the road a bit. my passenger split, leaving me to try to talk the cop out of giving me a ticket (which he didn't) and then driving home (the car was indestructable) and explaining to dad why the front bumper was rolled under a little bit.

my 84, got it for $450 when i was 13.


I wish i didnt buy it.

91 merc topaz back in 93.

98 hp, auto, FWD..... slowwwwwwww

I hit a lot of things, parked trees, construction cones, sewer grates etc.

right side Rear drum exploded twice

When I sold it the A/C didn't blow cold air..... so I sold it in the winter.... and since it was cold as heck out the guy believed me that the a/c worked fine :)

1989 Formula WS6...hit a sharp curve going way to fast and put it into a tree at 80+

My 86z got her when i was 13 for $600 bucks, damn money pit.

1995 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor was given to me by a family friend. Was coming home one night put my foot on the brake to stop pedal went striaght to the floor no break or Ebrake. Was close enough to my house to get it home though parked it and then i sawsmoke coming from my engine bay. Turns out the brake fluid hit my exhaust manifold and caught on fire as well my wireharness. After that my dad and i put brand new lines in and repaired the harness drove it till i lost 3rd completely in the tranny. Was a great 1st car built like a tank and had that torque, was a great sleeper

1986 Trans Am... still have it

interesting story...hmmm. November 26th 2 years ago i was at a place called bay park. it was basically a huge parking lot wiht ramps that let me people put their boats in the water. Weeeeeellll...it was me, my buddy mike and 2 girls in my car and we went to that parking lot to sit by the water and ****. As we went to leave they all wanted me to do donuts and since i was aiming to impress i did them... LOTS of them until the car tunred itself off. It never turned back on...

Now she sits in a garage in Long Island for a new motor.. cant wait

your car broke on my birthday, crazy

My first car was a 1992 Camaro RS 3.1L. The car was very reliable and never gave me problems. I got it wrecked when I was 16 and me and my dad fixed it (new bumper and hood). I found the iroc and I had to make the choice between the two. If it had t-tops I woulda kept it and swapped in a 350.

on a side note...The first time I could drive the iroc legally (and I did) was halloween of '03, so this Halloween will be 4 years. Me and Harry both have a celebration :lol:

my 88 was the first car. me n my dad were out looking for a "fun" car when i was 14 and we saw it sitting in a driveway in elmwood park. we stopped n asked the owner to give us a call if he ever wanted to sell it. sure enough 6 months later he called us and we bought it for 4500 with 65k miles on it just after my 15th birthday. ive had it for 6 years and it has 88k miles on it now and atleast 20k into it lol

my first car was a 85 honda 4cyl 5 speed...got it for 100 and sold it for 200, never could get it running and idk if the new owners did or not.

My first car was an 85 Trans Am with a beat up 305.
Interesting story... One night on Woodhaven Road, I blew 9 holes in the driver side rear tire going 80+ and it still got me home without hurting the wheel.

'90 Honda Accord. It was :rice: out; Macco black paint job, american racing rims (15" rims w/ like 2' of fender gap i might add!), neons under it, Pep-Boys "shint tint" self tinting job (even used a magic marker to fill in holes in the tint on the windows), windshield washer lights, no A/C.

Hehehe...well i thought i was Johnny Lightning and raced the car whenever i could. I used "sport mode" on a car that had 145K miles on it. Long story short i had the car 6 months b/f i blew it up. I "N bombed" it from 4K RPMs, shifed it high (it was an auto) :burnout:. i finally blew the motor and trans and had to drive home not being able to make left hand turns (busted trans and axle). When i took it to the shop, the mechanic said to my dad he had no idea what i did to the car (:shrug:) and that it needed a new "everything"! lol :drive:

my first car was an 83 grandprix with a 305 and 200r4 i pulled it and put a 350 and th400 in it ran great and it got beat the piss out of

My first car was this 1985 Trans Am. I purchased it on my 17th birthday for $1,100 but wasn't able to drive it for another month. I met my first girlfriend with that car. After a year the 305 took a dump & I swapped a 350/TH350 out of a K5 Blazer. Had that car for another year and sold it for my Camaro.

I do plan on buying it back someday or one very very similar.

my 92 accord ..also known *** the HOOWNNNNNDDDAAAA this cars been stolen 3 times has had the **** beat out of it and still runs strong..if you see me driving with this stay back im packin a 2.2l with cai headers and exhaust
