Re: What was your 1st car?
 

My first car in '71 was a '68 Z/28 I had it for 2 years. I bought it for $1800.00 and sold it for $1800.00 2 years later to buy a '56 Nomad.

No good pix of either one, Just blurry 110 Instamatic stuff

Re: What was your 1st car?
 

My first driver was a 1966 Chevelle Malibu 4 door sedan. I bought it out of the local paper for $300 in 2000. Stored indoors its whole life after getting hit on the right front in 1973. I fixed it but kept the fixed areas in grey primer. It had a 1969 250" six and a glide with 3.36 gears. Timing gears broke so I swapped in a 283. Also installed front WS6 sway bar and F40 rear sway bar and a power brake booster and some Rally wheels. Absolutely the most reliable car I have ever owned. Car is on the far right in the photo. Sold it my first year of college (2003) to a local guy and he still owns it.

My other "1st car" was my 1967 Chevelle that I still own today. Raced on and off its whole life. I got it with a 305 and a powerglide stuck in it but not hooked up. Bought in 1997 out of Chester Pa. I put a hot 350 in it with a 4 speed and 4.10 12 bolt. Went 13.0 @ 102 at Atco raceway in 2001. Was one of the fastest cars in high school at the time. Attached are a few photos of it racing in Philly back in the day.

1957 Chevrolet Belair 2 Door post with a .060 over 283 Duntov 30/30 cam and Aluminum powerglide.
Here I am sandblasting it when I was about 11 or 12. Paid $650 for it!

A 1969 SS sb nova I bought new in April of 69. Pumped alot of gas and with help from dad it came true. Mullin Motors in Ambler, Pa. $2,826.00 was the final price. Wish I still had it.

Re: What was your 1st car?
 

I still have my first 2 cars. 1 is a 72 rally nova and the other is 68 nova. One went 12.56 and the other 10.50. Someday they might see light again? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/3gears.gif[/img]

My first car was a SIMCA. Yes a simca. I think it was a little French job, but anyway it had 4 in the tree which was really cool.
