Ok this going to sound bad, but......
The car that started it for me was the Mach 5 from Speed Racer. I would race home from school to catch the episode. Always wanted to be race car driver like Speed. All the things that car did were cool to me. Once I got older I had friends accross the street were into cars, so that is how I got started inbto real cars.
My first car was a 67 camaro, which my parents gave to me for my 16th B-day. They had bought it new in 67 and handed it down to me. On my B-day I went down to get my license and when I passed the test, they gave me a set of keys. My dad always helped me change or modify something, just saying, "it ran fine before you started changing things." That was 27 years ago and I still have it today. Should be completed within the next month or so, and I fully plan to have my parents there when I pick it up.
