LOL, don't laugh. Mine was a 1983 base model Mustang I bought in 1991 when I was 16. Unlike all of my friends, I had to buy it myself with my minimum wage Jack in the box job I had. I paid $1,100 for it.
My first legal car all mine, was a Triumph Spitfire with a puny 1,200 cc engine in it. I forget what year it was. Before that I had a number of junk cars and motorcycles i drove in the field, and sometimes drove on the roads. I recall driving one with a girl friend, and getting busted by the cops for not having both hands on the steering wheel. My arm was over her neck and shoulders.
I was 14 years old, and that car was a push button tranny Dodge Dart.
I had a bright yellow 1973 340 Plymouth Duster. The car had some motor work done, black interior with buckets and a rare fold down rear seat option. Sadly in less than a year I smashed it. Had I know then what I do know I would have kept the car put a quarter panel on it and backed halfed it. At the time I basically just thought the car was totaled. I was 16..
1997 Geo Metro Lsi! I loved that car. I named him The Tomato, because he was bright red and basically a blob
In High School we fit 7 people in there. It has seating for 4...
LOL that reminds me of a HS Buddy who recently came back into contact with me. We were the class of 1970. He still has his 1948 chevy we had back then. Us kids painted that car up all over, tore out the back seat and made a 'head box' of the trunk. I swear we could cram 20 kids in the car.

In 1962 I was a Sophomore in High School. One of my friends was a Junior and had just got his driver's license and bought his first car. It was an Old 19?? hearse with the filigreed window curtains and the open area for caskets behind the back bench seat. It had an inline 12 cylinder engine so the car was about a block long. Dale had scored a gallon of John Deere green paint for cheap and some of his friends helped him brush paint it. The John Deere Yellow paint was used to paint sunflowers on the side. Party car? On Saturday nights that old hearse saw a lot of action. Lots of memories were made in that beast.
I had a 1987 Gray Crown Victoria. My dad didn't want it anymore and bought another Crown Victoria. It was a very solid car...sigh. I smooshed a chair that was on the side of the house towards the house; the car didn't sustain any damage, the house did and had a big dent on the siding, lol.
LOL Gunluver, and I expect some of those 'memories' are alive and well today
That much has been stable since the dawn of man.
