What was your very first car?

@Zaphod42 It would be cool to find one of those, put some nice rims on it, and drop a big block into that bad boy.

@Zaphod42 A white 1979 two door Ford LTD with a burgundy Landau top, and a big block V8 that pinned you to the seat by barely tapping the gas pedal.

@Zaphod42 I had the Buick version - 70 Skylark

@Tetsuya That was the car I got my first ticket in. Wrote up for 79 in a 55. I told the cop this car
can't do 80 if you throw it off a cliff.

@LoneVoice you're not wrong, you would need one of the V8 dusters to get past 80

@DragonFruit fastback or wagon? I had the fastback and yeah
mine was a POS too

@Tetsuya Mine was a fastback as well.

@JesseInTX my wife was once hit head on by a car coming out of the fog on the wrong side of the road. The two 18 years olds in the other car were killed in the impact. The car was later proven to be unroadworthy and the boys had been seen messing about. I took my wife to the Coroner's Inquest. It was extremely unpleasant experience. such a sad waste of life.

@Jacko1971 luckily I only had minor injuries. Broken nose from the airbag, some whiplash and a cut on my leg. I know the asshat was transported after being cut out of his truck. He got 5 years for intoxication assault.

@JesseInTX my wife was black and blue. She has permanent scarring where the seatbelt cut into her. At least that did its job properly. Thankfully for her she was in a stronger, heavier, better made car than the one that hit her.

@Lilnonames My late Fiancee's younger son had one of those, he did a tranny drop at 35mph on a city road in Delaware, caught it on fire. He did the same to a 1989 Ford Taurus, also in Delaware, and my 1995 Buick LaCrosse, which he did on the I-515 in Las Vegas going 65mph, I was not happy.
