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
