1950 Ford F-1. Chicks loved it! Everybody was driving T/A's and Z-28's, but when the party was in the woods they would all load up in the truck.

1986 Licoln Town Car. Signature Series with the digital dash, pushbutton entry system, and million-way power blue leather seats. The car was a dark blue as well, had a 460 in it, and got about 9 miles to the gallon. I think my dad gave it to me on purpose knowing that I wouldn't be able to afford the gas to cruise around with it. That car was so big, and the trunk was most of it. My girlfiend at the time and I had some good times in the trunk just for the fun of it.

I had a '56 ford pick-up with the big back window. It was a 6 cyl., automatic. With air, and the cool round radio. Paid $250 for it

'84 Mazda pickup. It was like new when I first bought it, I drove it for 2 years then the junkyard gave me $100 for it.

damn that was while ago- 1973 chevy malibu wagon, 350ci, beat the crap out of it until I bought a 67 corvair vert from my dad for $1 that needed an alt and valve/ring job.

With my Oakley Irridium Razor-Blades, Flojo Sandals, listening to 'Funky Cold Medina' on the stereo. Rollin...

1975 camaro. 350CI New engine and tranny. Autoshop Repo. It was a nice car, got around 12-16mpg. My brother ran it into a light pole in the church parking lot about 5 years later. Totalled it, but he was OK. He just wasn't watching where he was going.
I was not very reckless, but I did get it up to 105mph one time.

I had an '85 GMC Sierra handed down from my sister.

'91 Jetta GLI. I kept it mint the whole time I had it, although I drove the hell out of it for 3 years. I got more respect in high school in that car than the kids who's parents bought them brand new cars. I still run into people I graduated with and they always ask "do you still have that Jetta?" :twisted: My cars only got older from there.
