re: Car you drove in high school

‘55 Chevy then a ‘64 1/2 Mustang.

I rode to/from school just about every day with a friend of mine who drove a Volkswagen Thing:



I tried so hard to convince him to paint it and make it look like a Wehrmacht kubelwagen, but no dice:

88 Chevy Caprice... paid 600 for it ... my Grandma and Mama told me hold out they were looking for me some better... I had 400 uncle gave me 200... motor blew in 30 days LOL... got a 83 Pontiac Parisienne about a month later...

68 Chevelle SS 396

1973 poop brown Mercury Capri. 4-speed. No A/C ever installed. Every so often the exhaust pipe would separate from the manifold and wake up the world.
Eventually secured it with 2 c-clamps that I wired to the firewall with baling wire so I wouldn't lose them when they inevitably fell off. Fun times.

in maroon. totaled it rear-ending a glass truck on Siegen, fortunately not carrying glass. Brakes went out on me, which was a fun feature.

then this beauty, same color


someone ran me off I 59 near Laurel, MS, changing lanes on top of me.

then rounding off the 1985 imports--kept this (identical car) until i bought my first new car in college. traded it.

didn't have a car in high school. drove my dad's '88 dodge or my mom's '94 Oldsmobile when I could. dad had a company truck, so the dodge was usually available during work hours

Faded red 2000 Toyota Tacoma

‘82 CJ7, green body with a tan top
