Default Re: What was your first car?

1947 four door Plymouth with a flathead 6 engine. I bought it in 1960 when I was 16 years old. I spend more time under that car than in it. Learned may things about automobile mechanics with that car. My parents used to have to drag me out from under it for supper. I redid the interior (dash and upholstery) and painted it a nice baby blue with my brother-in-law's help.

I was one of the few with a car back in those days.
