My first one was a 55 Mercury Montclair 2dr Hard Top that my dad bought me when I was 14 for $50 so I could have something to tinker with and drive on the back roads.

A 77 Dodge Colt, with 4 speed. Most plain car on the planet. Didn't even have power steering, but it did have some nice rust holes. My car didn't even make the list!

I had a 1969 Chevy Nova. It was yellow with a black landau top and moon hub caps. It was a Chicago car and the rear floor boards were rusted out so I had to cut out plywood to cover the holes so people could sit in the back.
