Was your first car a family hand me down?

Nope, I bought my first car a 68 Camaro SSRS 396 in Feb 1980 & still lucky enough to own it today.

 

1968 my dad gave me a 63 rambler wagon that needed a motor. He took me to the junkyard and bought me a motor and helped me put it in. After that , he had me work on all his stuff (lot's of clutches as I remember, he had a funny style of driving. He'd lug it in third and throw it into 2nd to stop) Pretty good car, but this was during the muscle car days and was pretty lame! I have seen very few of them since, but when I do I have no desire to own one.

 

My Dad had a '49 Chevy 3100 which I drove till I bought my first car. '54 Buick Super 2 door for $50.

 

Yep. Handed down for $190.00. Here 'tis, still my project 33 years later..

 

my first car was a hand me down 1959 Impala with a 348 engine.
loved that car. I remember putting a 4 track player in it from Grand Auto in Bakersfield ca. must of been around 1966.
