First vehicle I drove was my daddy's 1979 K5 Blazer Cheyenne. My first car, 1988 K5 Blazer Silverado. And I am determined to get her back on the roads if it kills me.

Cool 92 5.0 Mustang

I got my first car about 11 years ago, I was 15 years old. My first car was a 1992 Mustang Convertible 5.0 (which I still have). The car did not run at the time, did not have an exhaust, and the conv. top was 40% duct tape. Since then I have done a TON of work to it, I put a brand new $1300 conv., top on it and 2 months later wrecked and totaled the car. It sat for about a year and then I started building again. I have it all sanded done and most of it in primer right now, The conv. top is very dirty and stained but does not leak at least. I plan on painting the car back to factory color. I have 4:10 gears in it, 17" Chrome cobra rims, mac H-pipe with no cats, 2 40 flows on it, some MSD ignition products, 155lph holley fuel p[ump, FIPK by K&N, Flex Fan, and some other stuff. Some of the car has been taken apart to weld a new door post and rocker panel on, need to get the rest of the work done and get it back up and going and maybe sell it, not sure though. I have tried to sell it a thousand times and I can never let it go.

First car was a 86 Horizon.........yeah it was bad. Only the drivers door opened from out side, and if I had 3 people in the back(I was in high school, so I ALWAYS had a crowd in it) the bumper would almost drag, and you would be almost pushing it up hill. It was a huge POS. But it was tough as nails, as hard as I tryed to kill it it just wouldnt die. Those old 2.2 chryslers are about as complex as a toaster and just as powerful.

it got better after that, my second car was alot funner. Storm GSI

My first vehicle that wasnt just a farm truck was a 2000 dodge durango that my parents bought new and then handed down to me. was the 4.7 V8 but it would drink some gas. Got me all the way through high school and had alot of memories in it.
