well, i as well got the on the knee training, and pop then took me to the highschool so we could practice in a nice big parking lot. what ever happened to those days? around here they will arrest you(thats if you can even get through the chains to actually get on the campus)for trespassing!
i have a 13 year old daughter to teach, and im wondering where i can.
but i digress, the first car i drove on my own was a 69 charger r/t
i was 13 years old, and just into h/s.
pop bought it with/for me for 200 smackeroos off one of my friends brothers.
the conditions were: get and maintain decent grades
about 80 hours of mechanical repair and bondywork(and yes i spelled it correctly hahah)later we had it lookin and runnin good.
first car i primered as well.
she was hemi orange with a 383 auto.
had to run some cheater slicks, as those were the only tires and rims i could find that would bolt on. man i loved that car, i wish i had taken pics, but who knew? almost no front brakes, but she went like hell down the road!!
my brother was driving a 72 cutlass supreme at the time, and was scared of my charger, and i dont blame him, he did turn out to live at home far to long anyways hahaha.
but alas ,was not meant to be, after getting an a in auto shop, but an f+ in p.e. i arrived home to find a bare space in the street where my beloved car once proudly resided.
sorry to be long winded.
