I seen the actual commercial this morning.

My first car was nothing special (78 T-Bird), and although my dad is gone I would love to find his 70 Duster.

My old friends, grammar and spelling, have suffered critical injuries in this thread. What did they ever do to you?

Hmmm. I just posted one sentence. After looking it over, I see it is not my grammar you are referring to. :P

'62 Pontiac Catalina with 421 SD engine. It was originally white with green interior and was painted that awful GM lt metallic green somewher along the line.

I was on Okinawa and Dad sent a letter saying some guy wanted it. I said sell her, and bank the money.

This is pretty much identical to my first car. A mechanical PITA, and probably helped put my mechanic's kids through school, but I loved it more than any other car I've owned.

My first car was a 69 Nova. 6 cyl auto, bought it off of the teacher who ran the A.V. dept. in my high school. Nice car. Wish I could find another one.

Don't want my first car back, but this one, I loved every minute of driving it, it was fast....but sadly ended on the scrap yard, due to some idiot slamming into me cuz he didn't see the light was red!

sigh...

That was so cool. I got my first car when i was 16(1973). It was a white on white 1965 Chevy Impala SS. I had just enough extra to put on hijacker air shocks and ET slotted mags. Sure looked good but with a 283/powerglide - not a lot of go for such a big car. Ended up parting it out after a couple of wrecks. Would love to have another one. Have the revell kit I am going to build as a replica of it--- guess I will start that now. :)

First car was a 65 Valiant Signet 2 dr ht. Slant/3spd manual on the column. Dark blue/blue interior. Bought for $1350, sold to the neighbors grand son for $2850. Been buying and selling on the side since. Was a good car.

My first car was a '75 Monte Carlo. I trashed that car and never really cared. It was the cars I could of had or tried to buy that I lament.

My dad had a '74 VW Thing and offered it to me. But I scared myself crazy trying to drive a stick. A retiree from GM was selling his '67 Pontiac Grand Prix and wanted $1500. Buy the time I came back it was gone... :(

I wouldn't mind my first new car back. It was a '86 Ford Escort GT. I had a lot of fun with it. If anyone has a CarFax account, the VIN is 1FABP33J5GW205174. I still know it by heart...
