I had a good time reading this and thinking, My Mothers first car was a 67 mustang my dad bought after they were married a few years, My Dad had a 65 Ford half ton he bought brand new. He told the story of how they got married ona Sat night in the Preachers living room, and my dad had 30 dollars in his pocket, the preacher got payed 5 bucks for marrying them and he had a pickup payment of 51 dollars due monday morning. some thing never change but the pickup payment sure do, ha ha

65 Olds 442 Sports Coupe. The my Dad's car when I was 2 or so back in the early 70's. Mine now. :thumb:

Thankfully he didn't give in to my teenage pleas for the car. Had to buy it off him in my 20's. :D

haha Challengers are sweet! My mom had two of them way back before I was born, a 70 RT and a 71 RT/SE. She would tell me stories on how they would do j turns all the time and have to swap in new trannies:D She also had a 70 superbee. Man I wished she never got rid of them.

I wish I had pictures, but the first car I remember of my dads was a 63 Impala SS. The next was a 67 Impala SS 396 Ragtop. He traded that car a year and a half before I could drive. He missed it so bad, that he let me buy a 69 Chevelle SS 396 for my first car when I was 15. He got to drive it quite awhile before I got my license!
