1st car at 14 was a 1960 Rambler Ambassador.....push button auto and full fold down seats. Soph year finished 1st build on '69 Charger R/T. Hit 10.95 sec on street tires once, then racing for pinks hit a deer at 110....so much for that.

Hey! I had one of those - 3rd car I bought, used of course, in dark green. Bought it right after college when I enlisted in the Army.

High School car was a 65 Rambler 660 Classic Station Wagon - see below (not actual car).

After High School - starting college I got a 65 Chevy Impala, black lacquer finish - real ghetto cruiser! Again, picture not of actual car.

My first high school car was a VW Sciroco - it was nasty fast honestly. It never ran for more than a week without something major going wrong but it was fun for a few days each month.

My first car was a 78 fiat spyder. Red on tan top with tan interior. Man I loved that little 5 speed.

1) 1965 Chevy Impala
2) 1968 Opel Kadett
3) 1973 AMC Javelin (bought new - I graduated in 1973)

I also had a Fiat 124 Sport Coupe I tried to restore, but I didn't get far with that.

I started my Softmore year with a 95 F-150, then I went to a 97 F-150. After my junior year I crashed my mothers car and my Dad took my truck away. I then saved up some money and finished my Senior year driving a jacked up 4X4 94 F-150. What can I say, I like Ford Trucks.
