Labrauer Posted September 16, 2012 Report Posted September 16, 2012 My first car to drive was a 48 Plymouth Coupe that my dad had. After he got rid of that I got a 64 Dodge 440 with the push button transmission. Boy I wish I still had that 64 back but now I have the 48 Plymouth Coupe I learned to drive when I was just nine years old around the dairy and back old sheal dusty roads. I always wanted to get the coupe back as memeries of learning how to drive the stick shift and now I still love it. Quote

W.F. Brown- III Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 My first car was a 1962 Plymouth Belvadiere. After I added the 8 track tape player, it was one great car. Quote
Reg Evans Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 My first car in 1966 was a 1933 Plymouth. I was drawn to old cars even then. I paid $225 for it which I guess was a tidy sum back then. Quote
james curl Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 Reg, my first car in 1950 when I was 14 was also a four door 33/34 blue Plymouth. Did not take long before I had a rod knock, so I was going to pull and replace the engine. I borrowed a friends dad's chain hoist and used a chain to secure it to a very large limb on a hack berry tree in our back yard. The limb looked to be of adequate size to allow for the removal of the engine. With the engine about 6 inches above the mounts the large limb let go from the trunk of the tree. This would not have been so bad but I had lined the car up with the limb so that it came down dead center of the top from front to rear. Made a total mess of the top and the windshield. I ended up taking the car out to the junk yard and just leaving it there. That is the story of my first car. Quote
lelshaddai Posted September 20, 2012 Report Posted September 20, 2012 My first vehicle was a 1968 Chevy Short Bed Pickup. Had a SB 327. Is was a county truck. Painted that cool county yellow color with logo in the door. Wasn't much to look at but still had some get-up. Quote
