Mike, welcome aboard. Pretty neet for a first car (at least the guys here all think so. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif)

Nick, A '61 bubble with dual quads? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/laugh.gif I like!

Wilma, New Yawk ain't that far from Illernoiz so watch it! And to set the record straight, I bought the car from Fred Flintstone.

Hard to really say which was my first car. I drove a '53 Chevy for a while, then a '55 Olds Super 88; both while in High School and both titled to my Dad. The first car I bought was the '57 BelAir that's still in the garage.

Good Lord, I've had that car 45 years! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif

Well in my last post I said stay tuned.... well after 24 years of persistence my first muscle car is coming home. I received a call on 10/14 of this year a day before my mother passed stating the owner was finally prepared to sell. It certainly was a bitter moment but the great pumkin is on her way home. She still has her orig drive train and loaded with options. Sammy will be proud .. the car will be day 2ed just like the way I originally had her. Its been a long journey and I'm glad she is home. Stay tuned for the journey ahead. [image]https://www.yenko.net/attachments/432659-IMG_1850.sizedJPG[/image] [image]https://www.yenko.net/attachments/432659-IMG_1849.resizedJPG[/image]

Mine was a 1987 Monte Carlo SS. I got it when I was 15 and was still in driver ed. I was the only one of my friends to have a car before my license

My first car was a Nova also...a brand new Hugger orange 70, 307, floor mounted 3 speed, and rally wheels.

Picture was taken by my dad just after I drove it home from the dealership; note the Monroney sticker still in the rear quarter window. Rally wheels lasted about 2 weeks, replaced by Keystone mags that looked similar to Torq-Thrusts only with darker spokes. OEM exhaust lasted about another 2 weeks, replaced by a set of duals with glasspacks from Midas. Sold the car after 5 months because it wasn't fast enough. Bought an R4 red 69 Dart Swinger 340 with a 4 speed and 3.55 Sure-Grip...had loads of fun with that car!

Rick,

Every vehicle in my life that I have purchased new, I kept all related paperwork...except that one https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif As best as I can recall, the window sticker was a tad over $2700 and I believe I paid about $2400 plus tax and fees. I do remember my car payment was $77/month. Bought it from Egizio Chevy-Olds in Naperville, IL.
