Default Re: What was your 1st car?

54 Chevy, 210, 2 door sedan. 235, 6 cyl, 3 on the tree. Found it on a car lot in 1962 for $475 negotiated the price all the way down to $450. Learned to power shift with the column shifter, shift lever eventually end up at the 12 noon position when in second. Dad asked me one day why shifter looked so strange, played dumb.
