1968 Roadrunner. 383 4-speed. Got it for $800 in 1974 when I was 18.  Gave it to a tree about 3 months later.  I cried for it when I came to.
I may be schizophrenic,
but at least I have each other

The First Car i got to drive was my Dad's  1973 Dodge Truck (8' bed, Club cab)...now that was fun to park turned on a dime (the size Rhode Island). The next real car I got was my Late Grandmothers 1969 4-door 170 Valient.  I drove it untill we could not keep it running...and never did figure out why it would not.

at about 16 I bought my first real car...long story but I bought the same 1965 Plymouth satellite that my dad bought as his first car.about 17 years later...lol
I drove it but never put it on the road.

the first car that was deamed mine... I was driving and 86 pontiac K1000 and Dad ofered me to keep it (AC sterio...very nice or take the 1980 Chevy Monta 3or4 speed, sunroof 2.something ... I took the Monta....would scream the tires (the darn things came with 350's and I have a corvette 327 lined up... well I had a head go (twice) and dad bought an 89 Dodge Omni (he is still driving)

Then is when I Bought my first car (tech second but first driver) an 89 Pont Firebird...
that was an awesome driving mach.

there were other cars in between and after but hey a lot of my rides we mopar...I came home from the hospital in the 65 Satellite...hmmm might be burried in it...lol nahhh could never waste a Mopar like that. (just spread my ashes in the floorboard / trunk...
