My first was a 1961 Chevy Impala 2 door that dad let me use. My actual first purchased by and for myself car was an used Oldsmobile F-85 in 1966-do not remember its year but something in the early 60's. It was sort of the first small cars of its time like a compact.

Just looked it up on Google-it was a 1962 just like this car-even color is the same.

1966 VW bug 1300 cc was my first in the 10th grade then a 1966 mustang with Shelby running gear my 11 and 12 grade ( the car would do 140mph lucky I'm still here)

 Ok , since we are talking about old vehicals let me show yall " Bruiser , the Land Cruiser" , he is part of the family, thinking about doing a wrap on him , what would you think would look better ? , a snow pattern or camo, or a big bluegill on the side? LOFRBruiser is a 1979 Toyota Land Cruiser with less than 50,000 miles

 My first vehicle was a 1951 International pickup. Glass top on the fuel pump, glass fuel filter. Big industrial 6 cylinder with a top speed of 70 mph. 6 volt electrical system. LOVED that old truck!

the heck of it is; one of the cars I use to have; was a old 1940;s model HUDSON!!  how many people; remember all of these classic cars?  and they were built like a tank!  not like todays;  cars made out of tin metal!

Comment by dick tabbert on June 11, 2014 at 9:43am

Kinda looks like my 57 Oldsmobile 371 with tri-power. Probably a good thing I got rid of it it, it was always tempting me do the unmentionable..
