When I turned 16 my parent handed me the keys to my moms old car, a 67 Camaro. They had purchased it new in 67. I drove the car all thru high school, and JC. Still drive it today, 30 years later.

I drove a 1975 Chevy Nova 350 2 barrel. Actually, was supposed to get the 75 Nova for High school graduation. Well, until I saw the magazine on 67 - 69 Camaros.. I searched all summer in 1983, and found my 67 RS Camaro in a barn. Which is my current build now!

First Car
 
1953 MG-TD Mk II Pulled it out of a snow bank and towed it home. It had a Ford V8-60 flatty swapped in. I installed a Peugot 403 motor and 4-speed.

Great thread first car at 15 was a 1970 camaro rs bought with a locked up motor and a smashed front fender second car was a 1957 gmc pickup next was a 1968 dodge charger with a tunnel ram and two fours this proved to be a not so good choice reckless driving,unnessasary excellaration like there is such a thing?and lots more tickets,then 74 blazer,73 camaro,67 chevelle,77 amc hornet wagon,2 chevettes,and a 73 chevelle. so looking at that now I can see maybe my car addiction was worse than I thought.LOL. all these were in high school.never had a garage to work on any of them just outside in a gravel driveway.

Before I got my license my grandparents gave me a 1976 Mazda Cosmo.
http://www.mazdacosmo.com/photo-gallery/
13B rotary (the big rotary) with a 4 barrel carb and automatic. The apex seals in the rotor tips stuck, no compression, and I had to replace the engine before I ever got to drive it. Those rotary engines were so weird. All my buddies couldn't believe it had a tach that went up to 10,000 RPM from the factory.

When I sold that, I bought a 1967 Camaro, hugger orange/white rally stripes on a cowl induction hood, 327, Carter AFB, M20 Muncie and 3.73 Posi. Drove that thru graduation, High School and 4-1/4 years of college. While I was in college the 327 was swapped with a BBC 408 (.060 over 396). Wheel hop with that BBC was wicked, even with slapper bars that thing pounded the rear end. :burnout:

When one of those two cars were dead, I drove a white, 3/4-ton 1969 GMC long bed camper special, 350, 4 barrel and a turbo 400.

Replaced or rebuilt every engine in those before I graduated college.
