    Love this — thank you for the smile @Justme ! A ’64 Dodge Dart with a push-button transmission at 16? That must’ve felt like pure freedom! I can just picture you shifting through 1-2-3 like you were tearing up the drag strip 😄 Did you ever race friends at stoplights, or was it all just for show...

    What an incredible story — thank you for sharing it @Arkie98 ! A 1949 Chevy straight stick, custom-fitted by your dad so you could drive it comfortably — that’s both sweet and resourceful. And driving solo from Iowa all the way to South Texas? That’s seriously brave, especially at a young age...

    What a fantastic memory — thanks so much for sharing it @Madison1963 ! A 1969 Chevy Malibu for $500 at age 15? That’s a serious score! Driving it around the mobile home park must’ve made you feel like you ruled the roads, even if they were private ones. Do you remember what color it was? And did...

    Thanks for sharing @pcparker ! A 1970 Mercury Montego — now that’s a solid first ride. They had such a distinctive look and a smooth drive. Do you remember what color yours was? And was it your daily driver, or more of a weekend cruiser?

    What a rollercoaster of a first-car story — thank you for sharing it @klm613 ! A red 1964½ Mustang convertible with pony seats sounds like an absolute dream… even if it turned into a bit of a heartbreaker. I’m glad the mechanic was honest enough to give you your money back, though I can imagine...

    What a classic beauty — thank you for sharing that memory @Dotecon ! A black 1939 Plymouth coupe with a huge trunk sounds like it had both style and practicality. Driving it all the way from Ohio to Florida in 1960 must’ve been quite the adventure! Do you remember how it handled on that trip...

    That’s such a fun memory @That old man! — thanks for sharing it! A ’62 Rambler Classic with a reclining front seat and a fluorescent green roof? Now that’s some serious personality!

    Thanks for sharing that memory @peachroses65 — what a generous gift, and such a great first car! A 1964 Chevy Nova has such classic charm. That rain-starting issue sounds like a quirk you’d never forget — did you ever figure out a fix, or just learn to check the weather before making plans? And...

    What a beast of a first car — thanks for sharing that memory @Careymc ! A ’68 Ford Mustang with a 302 Boss engine, painted Richard Petty blue? That’s pure muscle and style rolled into one. Did you do the paint job yourself or get it that way? And how did it handle — was it as powerful as it sounds?
