im still on my first car. 1st car i ever drove was our family van, a '98 Ford Windstar. drove it around for a few months until i bought a 93 mercury sable, of which i only got to drive home and then my step dad took it over, so i started searching for another car and ended up buying my mustang. sadly, i never took pics of that van, but boy did i love it. my sister now drives the sable, and i still have my 98 gt, an 01 f-150 supercrew, and a 99 caravan.

pic of my car when i first got it....

My first car that I bought and sold before I turned 16-

'84 Subaru GL 4WD wagon. Mine was silver but I can't find the pic and this is pretty close to the style. Push-button 4WD before it was cool! It was so badly rusted that in the end, we just decided to sell it. Bought for $50 not running, sold for $300. 600% profit give or take- I just drove it around the yard since I wasn't 16 yet

My first car that I had til I was 18 and got my license in-

'85 Olds Cutlass Supreme Brougham. G-body greatness, 307 4bbl and it looked good with the chrome exhaust tip and Keystone Klassic mags. Sold it because that 307 was pulling all of 14 MPG, the trans was going (big surprise, 200C POS), and I wanted a 5-speed. I had this from about halfway through my sophomore year of HS to February my senior year

My second vehicle was an 86 RX-7 so it's kinda cool to see someone else with a rotary as their first.

Here's mine, a 1994 Ford Explorer 4x4 which I paid for myself, $2,500 when I was 17.

heres my 69 mach 1 a week after i bought it when i was 15. just stripped most of the paint off.

since this car was not done by the time i got my license, i bought this 94 saturn sc2 for $400 with a blown tranny and a lot of cosmetic damage. i dont have any pics of it fixed, but i did not drive it looking like this! lol

The saturn had 189k on it, and the not long after i fixed it the motor blew, so my dad bought me this GT vert for until the mach 1 was done. I loved this car and this is what most of my friends remember as "my first car"


Well, my dad found a stupid video of me driving the car with some friends, racing (130mph) and doing some burnouts, and since the car was his, he took it away and bought me this 95 mazda mx-3 for $800 as a punishment. The GT car is currently my sisters car.

shortly after getting the mazda, the mach 1 was finished. here she is. he also let me drive the gt on occasion when the weather was bad ect.


after the stripe and spoiler were put on


I drove the mach 1 for awhile, then parked it to do suspension and engine work. its still parked and i own my 94 GT in my sig.
all of these cars were owned my senior year (didnt get my license till 17), thats why i posted them all. they were all kinda my first cars.

In terms of the first cars I drove the first year of my liscense, I drove a bunch because I traded around ALOT..

I drove the blue 86 gt:

Then i traded the truck and an 83 gt i had for V.. when we first got it:

Now this is her:
Picture088.jpg


funny thing is after all of those cars, this is by far my favorite, even though i put about 2 years of work in that 92 silver GT. I love the 98, best damn car i've had yet, one of the slowest, but probably one of the best. My z28 was pushing right at 450 to the wheels (h/c/i) on it and it was decked out. This is all about in a year period.. oh and before the blue 86 gt i drove a 95 f150 for a short while, then drove the 86. I've had the 98 for over half a year now.. and it definately won't be going anywhere unless i absolutely need the money

This is my first car. 1965 Falcon Sprint 289 4spd 1 of 2806. Me and my dad bought this in June 1982. It has been through a complete restoration.

This is my first daily driver. I bought this car in December 1982. This pic was taken in 1986.

This is what it pretty much currently looks like. The front end is now removed so it can get an upgrade.

my first car was not a car.... but a minivan. i can see now why i was given it, other than my dad was getting rid of it,
because it taught me to take care of my vehicle, so i washed it and performed regular maintaince to it just to show i
knew what i was doing, and i'm glad it happened that way, because otherwise i might have turned out like all the spoiled
kids around here who get an early 90s vette for their first car, and couldn't tell you as much as where the windshield
washer fluid tank is located. BTW, pics were not posted because i never took any, for good reason.
