Don't know if this has been asked before. Just curious how everyone started out!

My first was a 1986 Dodge Shelby Charger, black and silver.

1988 Cadillac Seville, light blue, dark blue leather. 4.5L FWD V8, I went through a lot of tires. Nice riding car, with adequate power.
 
1965 Mustang Fast back GT (red) (new). No pics. Wish I did.

seventy something, don't recall exact year, Dodge club cab
with Doobie Brothers in the eight track.
Don't remember every car i have had over the years but you can't forget your first.
 
I know, it's killing me that i can't remember the year. It is the first time in many years I have thought about it. In my defense, it was nearly 40 years ago and I have owned many cars and trucks since then.
 
'67 Buick Riviera. Way too much fun in that car to ever forget it!

I’d love to resto-mod a 67 Riviera. That is such a cool body style. From the front grill/headlight to the rear and everything in between.

Love it Bob!! My first was a 55 Chev BelAir 4 door sedan with a straight six and 3 speed on the column. Turquoise and white--always wanted a two door coupe in candy apple red!!

Cannot imagine getting a classic like a 55 Bel Air for $2,500 today. I adjusted $300 for inflation, in 1960-1965 $300, equates to ~$2500 in 2018 dollars.

When I 1st saw your post, I thought to myself “wait how old is this dude to have a picture of his 1st car that’s that old on his computer”? I always picture you as John Goodman. Lol. So none of it made sense.

As far as the car, I didn’t even know they had Dodge Chargers back then. Shelby Charger makes for another thing I would’ve never thought existed either. I thought a Dodge Charger was a truck back then?
 
An '89 Coupe de Ville that I still own to this day. I'm never getting rid of it!

Sure glad it wasn’t considered a
Classic back when I bought it.
