My first car was a 1973 orange VW "superbug" that I acquired in 1980, when I was a junior in college. It was named Ludwig. I loved that car and kept it until around 1985, when the engine just gave up. I've always loved driving a stick shift — and still do to this day.

My first car was a 1951 Ford Victoria, standard shift, things were simple then,
on my way to work one day, the clutch arm? Let loose, I called my dad, he had some wire or rope, I crawled under the car and wired it up and got it home! I was young and dumb, it was an ugly brown and tan, so I got some spray cans of paint,
white and blue, and painted it. Can’t imagine what people would say today! Good
old days!

My first car was a 1964 Chevy Nova. It was given to me by my father’s friend. His mother had passed away and he didn’t need the car so he gave it to me. The only problem I had with it was every time it rained, it wouldn’t start. Lol

'A '62 Rambler classic in which the front seat laid back to make a bed! It was white with a blue interior, and I painted the roof flourescent green!!

1939 Plymouth coupe. Black, of course, with a huge trunk. Ran beautifully, took it to Florida from Ohio in 1960. Wish I still owned it!

My first car was a red 1964 1/2 Ford mustang convertible with ponies on the seats. I drove it home, parked in my parents' driveway and it never started again. The mechanic picked it up and couldn't find the problem so he gave me my money back. I used that money as a down payment on a blue 1971 Plymouth Duster. I really wanted that mustang though!

The year was was 1978. I was 15 years old. The lady I baby say for sold me her 1969 Chevy Malibu for $500 that I paid $75 a month. I wasn't even old enough to drive it on the streets. So I drove it in the mobile home park where I lived because that was private property. Imagine what a 9 year old vehicle would go for today!

My first was a 49 Chevy straight stick. Am very short so my Dad built up all the pedals and seat for me and i sat on a pillow. Being brave and adventuresome, drove from Iowa to South Tx alone. And not very old either. Went down near Padre Island.
