The first car I owned was a '58 Plymouth Belvedere that looked identical to the Plymouth Fury "Christine" in the Stephen King novel/movie. Mine had a 301 cubic-inch (yes) V-8, four-barrel carburetor, dual exhaust, and pushbutton TorqueFlite transmission. Got about 14mpg, would peg the 120mph speedo on the freeway. Inside was black Naugahyde tuck-and-roll upholstery, with red and amber lighting. I wish I still had that car.

Well i started out with a highly optioned 92 s10 blazer that had no exhaust left on it, everything up to the y pipe was rusted away, and the y pipes were split open to the manifolds, it burned coolant (i think it was intake gaskets) and had like 90% 235/75r15 bfg all terrains on it which i wish i woulda kept for the newer blazer. Grandpa paid 900 bucks for it, and i slaved away the summer for him and paid it off. ended up wanting a car so i sold it for 750 after lots of playing around on the back roads



Then i went and bought the 92 bonneville that had power windows and locks for options lol, but i loved not having abs for all of 3 weeks in winter. this car went thru snow drifts taller then her, and pulled many 180s on the road. oh and i had to be pulled out by 2 lifted truck when i put it in the ditch once Then somethin in the steering went on the highway and she got jumped over a driveway



Well then me and my dad talked about gettin me another vehicle and a guy at work had a 99 jeep grand cherokee and the 96 blazer. i picked the blazer even with the right side lookin like **** and bein spray bombed all over. If u look hard enough at the fender flares/running boards u can see a difference (look at the section between the steps under the doors) He paid 2200, and wants 1500 if i wanna keep it when i turn 18. The blazer now sits in the driveway til december due to losing my license and a broken axleshaft but i have some goodyear wrangler mt/r 235s ready to throw on it now


I loved my first blazer, but Bonnie was my favorite outta the 3 cars
And my names been on the registration of the bonneville, but not the 96, and the 92 never got registered

My first car i owned was a 1988 ford mustang with a 4cyl 5sp. couldnt drive it so i traded it for a 1991 Eagle Talon tsi that was 3 different color reds, needed alot of work but was still a TSI. Didnt have any money to put into it so i bought a 1996 Chevy Beretta. I loved this little car. It was so fun to drive and was so reliable. I wish i could find another one.
