My first non feet, bicycle or bus to school was a Honda- 305 Scrambler made sometime in the 60'. Loved it and all the others to come.
The Mercy girls loved it as well!

70 Olds Cutlass S exactly like this except without the hood stripes.



I had that exact car in yellow but it was passed down from a parent through four older siblings so it was pretty well wrung out when it got to me. I had I think 6 vehicles from high school to first year of college including a 1969 Chevy Fleetside that I still have.



And this one too. 1970 Buick Estate Wagon

Where are the truck nuts supposed to go on that thing? Tucked up in the back seat?

Not one of my photos. Don’t think I ever took one. But this best represents the car I had.

Datsun 240Z



It was a fun car

I had a hunter green 93 explorer with tan leather. Should’ve never let it go.

We had drivers and hired cars or limos for prom. We did not drive our own cars like commoners.

Friend of mine bought one around that year for one dollar. All he did was put a battery in it and drove it for probably 2 or 3 years. Turn on the AM radio and count to 28 before it came on. He didn’t have a horn so he would beat on the roof with a baseball bat.

I graduated high school in 1995. Not my pic, but my dad found a 1979 BMW 320i in a junkyard that he bought and tried to get running for me. It was the same car as in the pic, same color too. Initially, I thought the car was cool, but I hated that damn car. Damn near every other day I would get stranded. I drove that piece of shite car for almost a year. My mom eventually got tired of me getting stranded and force him to get me a more reliable car because she was the one who would come pick me up when the car wouldn't start.

I walked to and from HS. But, the first car I drove to school was my dad’s 2 door Chevy Belaire. It was yellow and white.

Was the creepy old house in the background extra to the wedding? Looks like they filmed Halloween in it...

I had a Pontiac T-1000. As one friend described it, it was a "high class Chevette".
