What was your first car and why?

When I turned 16 in 1987 my father gave me his hand me down 1981 Ford Escort. It lasted a year then I traded it in on a Dodge Daytona which I bought with my own money. I had the nicest car in the school parking lot then.

What about you?

Something to the tune of this:

1982 Chevy Cavalier. It was a 2 door 4spd, 4cyl. Sunroof leaked, exhaust fell off later that summer. Could not get front end alligned so it ate through tires. Still had many a good time in that hunk of junk.

Mine was a tan 1996 Chevy S-10 with the long bed and a 5-speed. My dad bought it to use as his survey vehicle and I lucked in to driving basically a brand new ride my sophomore and junior years. I was hard on that thing!

In 1962 I bought a 1956 Mercury 2 door hardtop with a 3/4 cam. Fastest car in NW Ohio till the 1964 Fords came out.
