Your first car

Family hand me-down, 1981 Olds 98 Brougham edition, it was like two couches on wheels. I think it had five cigarette lighters all with ashtrays. We would fit three couples in this car as a teenager.

First car purchased on my own with saved $, but it had the T-tops. 305 "cross-fire injection" the hood flaps were actually functional but still slow as shit compared to the 70s muscle cars:

1969 Mustang fastback, 351 Windsor, 4 bbl added, FMX automatic. Father bought it for me when I was 15.

He later bought my brother a 1965 Mustang GT, with a K block, stick shift with a floor console, and fold down rear seats.

I'm planning to do a full restoration on a rotisserie once I get caught up on other things pending. Planning to put a much more modern, bulletproof 4r70w automatic in it with an electronic controller, and add a FiTech fuel injection system to replace the carb. I'm also planning to retrofit a fold down rear seat, now that parts are available.

Edit: The FiTech adds fuel injection to a carb, doesn't replace.

My first car that I bought was a '87 Mustang GT. Those 305 Cameros had nothing on me. 😁
 
1962 Dodge Lancer. 3 on the floor, stove no jukebox when I bought it...

Did not look this good, I promise, but it was $25, so...
