First car was a 2 door Ford Granada. White with a red vinyl top. Broken struts and a 6 banger that only ran on 5 good cylinders.

Looked similar to this but not this nice.

My first car was a 1970 Monte Carlo. Wish I had that car still. Here is a scan of a pic of it when I first got it. Later put on 8 inch Corvette Ralley wheels.

First car I drove: 1962 Rambler Classic. Was my grandpa's, when he passed it went to my dad and was my DD. First car that was mine: 1992 Dodge Spirit :-P

Might have pics of the Rambler somewhere that would need to be scanned first... The Spirit... well actually I'm trying to forget about that car!

the monte is actually the first thing i've had registered, but i've had a few others i used to mess around with. my '65 buick was my first car, still got it in the garage, its in real nice shape but i gotta reinstall the windows & interior. i also picked up a 425 CI buick to dump into it i used to drive it around the block.

i also had a '51 dodge 1/2 ton shortbed pickup, yellow and black, that was another project, woulda needed quite a bit of work to make it roadworthy though and i wound up selling it, the guy that bought it restored it compleatly, so thats cool

and right before i had the monte, i had an '84 oldsmobile custom cruser station wagon that i was playing with, got it for free from a "lil old lady" for doing some yardwork, converted it to run without the computer controlled carb and it was real nice and straight, but overall had too many little problems. sold it for $400 and walked up the street and bought my monte
