I was given a ‘69 F100 for my 16th birthday from my grandpa. Although I loved my grandpa for it, at that particular time, I wasn’t feeling it lol. All my friends had fox bodies and Camaros. I traded it a year later for an 84 Camaro that was a complete POS to this day, I still hunt for a clean 68-69 f100 to build
What was YOUR first car?

I learned to drive in a ‘68 F100 <3
Three on the tree, “your power” steering and brakes set me up to drive anything, ever. Haha.

Mine was an 89 but this is the closest picture I could find to how mine looked. Painted the wheels black and me and my grandpa heated the springs under weight to lower it a couple inches
Edit: I forgot to add that me and my uncle swapped in some seats from an early Tiburon. Uploaded picture for reference.

Is that the U.S. equivalent of a Toyota MR2? A former girlfriend of mine had a red one. FUN freakin car to drive; speeding ticket magnet!
That is indeed a Toyota MR2 - 1996 G-Limited Japanese Import.
Brilliant cars and yes great to drive. She's all standard apart from the radio which I've swapped for an original Toyota Sat Nav unit from a 2008 Yaris - maps still supported and updated only last month.
