Attached File Loved the car until it blew a gasket somewhere. I was driving down the road like normal and looked in my rear view mirror and found a massive cloud of smoke. I looked like a crop duster driving down the road. Cost of repair was was 2x the value of the car. So I moved on. Fun car though! |

In 1956 I was 4 years old when my dad put me on my grandfather’s old tractor to teach me how to drive it first. So I guess I learned to drive on a 1950 8N Ford Tractor on the farm. The first car I drove was our 1960 VW Beetle

We drove the airports manual trans jeep around while my buddy's dad was inside working at age 13 one would keep lookout the other would drive around. We both had dirt bikes from age 11 so not entirely unfamiliar with clutch operation.
I think "my" first car was the 2nd year of the SHO taurus when I was in HS at 16, my dad got it as a employee lease where any family members could drive it and the payment included insurance. Had a sho 2 yrs. Then got aerostar one year. I used the aerostar to finish 6th or something out of 400ppl in the HS bracket nationals(drag race for hs kids, thing ran 18.7 @ some stupid slow speed all day long and I was cutting .500 - .515 lights on a .500 tree consistently. I red lighted out in the semi finals with a perfect .500 on the scoring sheet but apparently there is a slight difference between the red light indicator and the timing, forget the name for when that happens, Wish I still had the timing sheet but the ink faded). First car I bought was a ford futura (ugly but price was right) when I went to college. |
