First ride was your mom, afterwards I drove a sweet turdball of an '88 Escort.

Pretty much like this, but with shitty faded burgundy paint.

1986 Ford Escort with a 4 speed manual, and so little power it would go faster in 3rd gear then 4th. Given enough space in third gear on flat ground with just me in it, that car would do a blistering. 140km/h (87mph). My first timing belt, first clutch job, and first brake jobs were all for that car.

I don't have a picture of it, didn't seem like something worthwhile to waste film / getting devolved on.

My parents gave us each $1000 towards our first cars (3 kids). In 1997 I put mine towards a 1967 Firebird that didn't run... I got it running 3 yrs later at age 18. My first *running* car was a 1977 Olds 88 Delta. Sweet ride and I didn't care about gas at $0.91/gal. My first shock install was on that car. I should have done a thermostat too, it took forever to get heat.

92 civic ex auto. Pretty much like this but with a dent and a bit of rust in the rear quarter. Then I riced it out and and wrote it off.

1983 Dookie Brown Ford Fairmont. My grand father hit the gas instead of the brake and drove that bitch through all the umbrella stands at McDonalds so my father took his keys and I got my first car! Dented bumper and all. The car was bucket but it was freedom and I appreciated it!!! I drove that thing everywhere.

1993 Dodge Intrepid.  POS 3.5 Mitsu motor that liked to eat intake manifold gaskets.  Gray interior faded to a light purple...matched the exterior.  Suspension clunks that couldn't be found.  Headlights so fogged it was hard to see at night.  Lovely burnouts and neutral drops.  Totaled on a high speed snowy drive into high school using the foot pedal ratcheting e-brake to drift around corners.  Good times.

82 corolla, rust red. It could barely do 60 mph. I dont believe my parents actually gave me the car though, more like "perma loan" until I left for college.

Haha my fruit boot crew rolled in a similar corolla, should have gotten so many tickets in that pile of shit.

I have no pic, and you would be surprised at how hard it is to find a decent picture of an 89 Prelude that isn't an SI.

Best I can do, I guess this is a JDM 1600.  But it WAS this clean when I got it in '99, being an Oregon car.  Love my Audi, but I wouldn't pass one up as a project if a good deal came up.

1987 mercedez benz 300sdl (i was born in 87)

Interior was 7/10, and everythign worked except for sun roof.  Car was really rusted all over on the outside and ran on 5 cylinders.  Yay diesel

It was a smooth ass ride, loud as a truck, and was a blast to drive. :noel:

My dad had a 78 elcamino with a crazy candy blue and pearl white paint job. It looked badass, but mechanically was worn out. I drove that till it threw a rod, then bought an 86 Nissan Sentra with like 300k.
