Another "fun" thread!!

[Wild Willy]

Let's see, first was a '64 Datsun B210, 1200 cc's if 4-speed fury. RWD! replaced that with a '67 Impala, 2-speed powerglide behind a 283- hey, at least it was a V-8. That car was too reliable, I couldn't kill it, so, in about 1973 I bought a '67 MGB- twin carbs, taught me more than I ever wanted to know about reliability. 2-seater convertible, my Z28 is the spiritual successor to that car....

Now, how about a thread about your favorite car, or your fastest car?

[Performin Norman]

My favorite car was my 71 Cuda 440 6 pack shaker hood car.


My fastest car is my 2001 Corvette Z06 Twin Turbo LS2 402 stroker.

1970 Dodge Dart. Slant 6 3 speed auto. A few years later it had a 340 6 pack (not stock), pistol grip hemi 4 spd, 3.91 posi. I got pulled over for pulling the front wheels off the ground. The cop was on a motorcycle so I said hey if you can drive on 2 wheels why couldn't I. He laughed and let me go.

lets see my favorite car is too close to call. I absolutely love all three of the vehicles I have now (In my sig). But the bike isn't considered a car so it's a tose up between my R/T and the T/A. My fastest vehicle used to be my bike but as soon as I get the car figured out my T/A will be my fastest.

I am ALL the way with you on your favorite.....I ALWAYS wanted a Hemi Cuda convertible, pref. yellow with a white interior....ahhhhhhhh Would never afford one.
Also loved those crazy, high-winged beasts, the "Superbirds" , the ones everybody hated and thought were ugly. Would REALLY never afford one now.

So, we want to know what your very 1st vehicle ever was....I mean the very 1st one that you ever bought and registered in your name! Let's hear about and maybe see all the beauties and beaters people had for their firsts. Dig up those pics if ya got 'em!

First vehicle...'74 Honda CB550F, bought it from my BIL when I was 16, with my own money from working in a Hobby shop near my house.

Took this photo at about the 8,000 foot elevation of Haleakala on Maui.


First Truck was a '79 GMC Sierra. First car was an '88 Formula bought new in Dec. '87.

My first car was an 86 Firebird, 2.8L V6. First in a long line of f-bodies. I don't have any scanned pics of it. It was blue with silver around the bottom.

My first car was a 1980 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme 4-door, handed down from my dad. Originally had the diesel 350, when that blew my dad had a 350 gas put in. I loved that car - and my love for oldsmobile started.

Went to a 1986 olds cutlass supreme 4-door again, this time 307 "Y" motor.

Then 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix, 3.1 V6, fixed it up from a crash into a curb.

I also bought a 1986 Olds Cutlass 442, rebuilt the engine (307 "9"), new paint, < 80,000 miles, and only drive it on the nice sunny days, and to car shows. I love that car.

Then I bought my 1996 Formula. I have to say, from a driving standpoint, the Formula is the funnest BY FAR, and I want a newer one!!

First car... 91 Firebird 3.1L V6/Auto Red w/ RACING STRIPES!!

This is the car that got me hooked on F-Bodys... I sometimes wonder if I would still be a F-Body guy if my first car was a mustang or import. I think I would have been... cause I picked this car over a stang, so it seems I had taste even at the age of 16!

Ha ha ha. My first Car was A 1989 hyundai Excel. It was Senior Year in high school. Picked it up for $400. Drove it for about 4 months. It would not start some times b/c the starter would not work, so I would Back up on this hill at the school parking lot so i can push start it. No A/c, No power steering, but it had a really nice sound system (cost 3 times what the car was worth).
Then I had Red LED strips under the entire car so it was all red. Limo tint all the way around.

1962 Chevy II, 2 dr sedan. 153 ci, four cylinder, 1 barrel carb (Iron Duke). 3spd on the column, but had no shift lever (shifted it with a Philips screwdriver until I got a lever ). Needed head work and a clutch. Repaired it when I was 15, before I even had a license to drive. Paid about $50 for it. Eventually sold/traded it for some cash and a set of used Cragar SS wheels with tires on them. The guy wanted it to make a race car (don't think he ever did).
