If you count my dads 87 grand Prix because our was the first thing I ever truely drove from the drivers seat by myself when I was 10

Lime green 1969 Ford Torino (GT I believe).

Wish I still had it now, but it rusted to pieces.

Cool factory hood scoop, 351 Cleveland and an 8 track player.
All I really remember about it, but it was a bad looking car.

I did find out that at 110 mph the headliner blew down over my head.

Never went over 75 after that.. lol

55 Bellaire. I was 16 at the time and it cost $90. A whole weeks pay! My dad put it on blocks and pulled the wheels off until I got my license and insurance. By the time I could afford the insurance I had enlisted in the marines,so the only time I ever drove it was when I brought it home. A whole 2 blocks!
