OP has friends in low places.
Mine was totaled but if I could find a low miles 1980 Chevy Chevette for what I paid in 1985, I'd be all on it. |
|
lol no way. It was a piece of sha-hiiiiiiiiittt. Would have been 40 this year.
|

Only in my dreams. Junked out decades ago.
One owner '68 Firebird I bought by working my ass off as a junior in high school, 1974. Yes, I mounted a Tri-Power on it . |

Quoted: Just found my first vehicle that I bought with my own money at 15. I delivered newspapers and cleaned horse stalls for months to pay for this pickup. Just found it on Facebook Market place. In much worse shape than I sold it 21 years ago. Door looks effed https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/185965/Screenshot_20230719_200220_Facebook_jpg-2891944.JPG Looks like the roof is caved in https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/185965/Screenshot_20230719_200238_Facebook_jpg-2891945.JPG Senior photos in 1999. Damn I was a dork. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/185965/IMG_20161124_0031_jpg-2891947.JPG View Quote I didn't see your location and just scrolled. I got to your senior photo and said, that must be Oregon. Scrolled back up and wasn't wrong. Looks like stuff people at my HS did for photos also. |

My first car was a 1989 Bronco II. A lot of fun memories in that car from my HS years. I probably wouldn't buy it if I saw it for sale, though.
|
|
My first truck was a 1969 F100 that I rebuilt the 360 engine in while in HS and is was a good truck. Yes would buy if not rusted out. My first car was a 1973 Buick Regal that became mine later when my dad died when I was 12. Really nice car but by the time I got rid of it was already rusting out and that's living here in the south all the time. Nope
like this Attached File Attached File I think the Buick 350 at the time made all of 125 hp Attached File |

Absolutely.
1970 MG Midget. BRG, knock offs, Kangol magnetic seatbelts, lol. |
|
|
Nope.
71 Olds Delta 88 455 HO. I loved the car but It got T- boned when some middle aged lady ran a stop sign. |
|
A 64 Belair with 250 straight six and a two speed Power Glide. Used more oil than gas. Couldn't get out of it's own way.
Not just no but hell no. Pretty sure it was razor blades two weeks after I got rid of it. |
|
No. Mine was a 1991 Buick Regal. Given it lived in the Northeadt Ohio Salt zone, I'm sure not much of it exists.
|
|
Yes, no question. Already looked for it - no luck. 1983 Camaro, red with t-tops
|
|
|
|
Can you tell me your mothers maiden name as well?
You just never know |
|
Rusted out '99 Outback?
Last I saw it, I gave it to some guys to get the non-running piece of shit out of my driveway. |
|
Yes. I recently looked for it. I was going through storage and found a shoebox that probably hadn't been opened in over 20 years. First thing I saw was my old radar detector. Second thing was a "Ride the Lightening" cassette. Knew immediately it was my old glove box contents. Found my last registration and the VIN. Did a few lookups, but the trail ends around 2001.
OP, if you don’t buy back your truck, you will regret it. I'd rather have my beat-up, underpowered Camaro back than have a new Ferrari. |
|
A gorgeous 1993 White Eagle Talon TSI……..that the transmission went up in 3 times…..no
|
|
I dunno know.
Mine was a 1973 Comet, called the “green bomb” by my buds due to its olive color and rather perky 302 V8 engine. It was reliable for the 5 years I had it. Then my sister absconded with it. https://bangshift.com/bangshift1320/bangshift1320-online-find/this-1973-mercury-comet-is-stupid-clean-and-would-great-with-the-front-wheels-up/ |

I still own my first car. It’s sitting in the field at our farm. 64 4 door malibu.
There are a couple vehicles I’d buy back if the price was right though. |
|
'72 Blazer.
Before it burned down? Hell yes! After, not so much. |
|
I would buy the first car I wanted, a '65 Olds Cutlass.
My first was a '67 Fury two door. |
|
No, I'd call the fucking sherriff, it's sitting in my garage and my # 2 is sitting in a Ryder truck box in my back yard!.
56 GMC 4x4 conversion and a 65 Malibu 4 door. I'd love to get both of them streetworthy and back on the road. But time and money always gets in the way. Everytime I get close, some calamity befalls me and back to square one. |
|
I sure as hell would. Unfortunately I know it was destroyed in a few demo derbys.
It was a 1988 Plymouth Grand Fury ex cop car. Souped up 318 with a posse rear end. Damn thing would be sideways in no time if throttle was burped. I miss that car every day and have tried to find another with no luck without spend $5000 Paid $1000 for it virtually rust free in 1996 This is basically what it looked like. Attached File |

I a couple of first cars. A 74 VW SuperBeetle and a 74 Monte Carlo. I doubt either of them are still car shaped and not crushed into a small square.
|
|
|
|
nope, it was in pieces and painted a different color not long after I sold it
|
|
Quoted: My third car, yes. '86 Toyota Supra 5 speed. Same color and interior as this one. https://www.ar15.com/media/mediaFiles/128054/237075_Front_3-4_Web_jpg-2893116.JPG View Quote That was my second car, but mine was auto. Same color I had an 88 turbo after that. |
|
Not that anyone will see this post at this point of the thread, but my first car likely no longer exist.
It was a 76 Firebird I bought out of a salvage yard and spent quite a bit of time and money, with much help from my dad, putting it back together, around 1980. Once I got out of high school, I bought a 77 Trans Am, and my younger brother inherited the Firebird, then wrecked it. |
|
|
Not a lot of love for the 1987 Mercury Sable.
It's been turned into bottle caps by now. I wouldn't buy it back. |
|
Yes! Attached File
|
|
Fuck yes I would. It was a clean 90 fox body Mustang 5.0. It was a solid na car, but now I can afford to make it what I always wanted it to be.
|
|
First was a VW Thing...maybe.
Second was a 74 Celica GT...I miss that car. |
