For some of us old farts, this is pretty neat.

Thought you might enjoy seeing your first car ad. Find your first car or the one you drove to high school or college; hopefully your car brochure is available. This has to be one of the neatest web sites whether you have gasoline in your veins or not. This is a website featuring the original factory brochures for nearly every American car you have ever owned.

Mine was a 1974 blue Chevrolet Nova Hatchback that I bought in 1978. It had around 22,000 miles on it when I bought it and I kept it for close to 10 years. That car had some get up and go. It was a great first car.

haha, I'm almost embarrassed to say it but mine was a 1982 Ford Escort.

I will say this....they hold up well in head on collisions going 50 or so. Seat belts worked great.

Let me get this straight. We're going to be "gifted" with a health care plan we are forced to purchase and will be fined for if we don't, written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that hasn't read it but exempts itself from it, signed by a president who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese and financed by a country that's broke.

What could possibly go wrong?

1994 Dodge Dakota, extended cab FTW.

I loved that thing. This thread makes me want to track one down and buy another.

Mine was a 1984 Dodge Mississippi Department of Transportation truck. The guy I bought it from for $500 got it at an auction.
It was an awesome truck. 395,000 miles on it when I bought it (550,000 when I got rid of it), the air conditioner never did work, at one time the engine caught on fire.

Had it for two years before I got rid of it.

1987 Honda Civic CRX.

I'd say it was a great first car...but it wasn't. I guess it was a good car to have as a first car, because...like many others, I wrecked my first car.

Since it wasn't anything great, and it was my fault- then I wasn't out a huge amount of money.

Haven't had a wreck since...that was 14 years ago (*knock on wood*)

Mine was sky blue, great car it had a million miles on it and was immaculate on the inside. My SUV now is riddled with cheerios and crumbs, it's embarrassing.
