sprayed99 Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 That was my first demolition derby car! Yup yup my first vehicle was a 1976 GMC Longbed. It was a hand-me-down; after about 6 months I traded it straight across for a 1977 Trans-Am 4spd . But the first car I ever paid money for was a 1970 Ram Air 4spd Firebird, and I still have it. Mr. P. correction sir 70 1/2 and your car is a formula.. my was a 78 Z28 built the car with my dad...got stolen....got a 92 firehawk with super super low miles and that the car I had my 90+ mph head-on collision in. between the 2 I had a 69 ss 396 camaro that was mint but dad sold it quick....

Hankg42 Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 '56 Chevy 110 model. Got it when I was 16. By the time I got my license, I had my 3rd engine in it. We built a 283 that I got out of a wreck that had only 6000 miles on it. Nice cam, big 4 barrel, cleaned up the heads a bit. Had some dress up items under the hood too. That car ran NICE. Ah, memories... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cwest94 Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 Mine was a 1986 Murcury Capri GS Fastback. White with the factory wire wheel covers and red interior with removable glass sunroof. Cool looking car but bad on wet roads and snow. Use to put a couple hundred pounds in the back with studed snow tires on for winter driving. The thing had the 3.8 V6, pretty quick.

raidaz4lyfe Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 mine was a pewter '94 Toyota Camry 2 door which was a hand-me-down from my parents. I gave that to my sister when she got her license and then I drove another hand-me-down which was a '94 F150 long bed (aka The Silver Boat)... the first vehicle I bought was my Silverado after returning from the Army... I plan to keep in the family FOREVER!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
