Sparkie....my first car was a 39' Ford sedan, 2 door! It had a flat-head V-8, and a La Salle, Lincoln tranny! It was HUGE! We'd go to the "Drive-In" movie, and pack four people in the trunk! Two cases of Schlitz beer, and a couple of "hoochie-mamma's!" It was painted primer grey, with a brown interior.......I was 17, at the time!! STILL in High School,,,,,Ardsley, N.Y. I paid $450.00, for that pile of ***t, but got a million laughs, and lost my virginity, in it!!! GOOD MEMORIES!!!!......SEMPER FI.....Doc Greek

My first car was a 1956 Chevy Belair 4 door post. Three on the tree. My dad paid $35 for it. Six Months later with 8 friends (no-one got hurt) in the car I rolled it in town in a guys front yard showing off. Totaled the car but, sold the engine for $50. That's a net profit of $15. Oooops forgot to mention the "failure to keep my vehicle under control" fine of $35. The point is, don't let him have a car load of friends. Teenagers tend to try to impress their friends. I was lucky no-one got hurt.

My first car was a 1958 ford four door with a 312 ci,three speed on the floor with only two forward gears and reverse(second was gone) and jacked up in the rear,single glass pac exhaust. Got my first ticket in that car, also got good gas mileagebut had to carry 5 gallons of water and a glove box full of radiator stop leak.you could see day light through the radiator tank.Paid a whole 35.00 dollars for that carand drove the dog sheet out of it.
