Mine was a Lemans Blue/black bench 69 Chevelle 350/300 4spd M20 with a 373 in back. I pegged the speedo and tossed several rods onto I-90 near Rockford 6 weeks after getting it in the spring of '73 and then put a new CE block in it. Wish I still had it!

First one was a white 70 Camaro with houndstooth, column shift, tilt wheel and more rust than paint. I bought it with paper route money when I was 14. It never saw the road and I sent it to the boneyard after pressure from my dad and step mom back in about 1990.
My first driver was a dark green metallic 1970 LeMans Sport with the Pontiac 350 2bbl, m21 4 speed and 3.23 limited slip.

1979 Trans Am was my first new car. No A/C no power windows, no radio no T tops and no bird on the hood. Pontiac 400 with a SUper T-10 . Only real option on the car was the WS6 package.... I would love to have this car back

69 Olds Delta 88 2 dr coupe, 455 auto when I was 13 going on 14. My dad bought it new and I got it around 1978. Put quite a few miles on it before I turned 16...
Loved that insta-spin rear end...Could not afford to do that too often. Had 9 or 10 Oldsmobiles since and mostly Chevys besides. Would love to have my original 70-W30 back...

1970 Ford Torino-- 302 w/2bbl and auto. Morning Gold w/ white and olive green gut!!! My brother and I had a lot of fun in that car and never got in trouble with the Po-Po. But my senior year in high school, my mom thought I needed something a little more dependable to go to college with-- insert '84 Z/28 (of course it was red!!!)

I have not seen Rob contribute to this post yet!!!!

My first was a 1989 Turbo Trans Am we bought at my great uncles Pontiac dealer. My dad planned on keeping it for himself and getting me a GTA that looked just like it. Well, a divorce insued and the biatch tried to take the turbo. I ended up with it so she wouldn't get it. Never and I repeat Never give a 15 year old a car that fast. I street raced that car to no end and traded it with about 80,000 miles worn slam out. Bone stock ran 8.6 in the 1/8 mile @ 96mph wheel hopping the entire track with idle launch. Would love to have it back.
