Mine was all primer grey with black mag wheels.
The motor was a custom built 350 with the lumpiest cam ever,4 speed manual transmission and a 455 rear end.
It looked like something out of a mad max movie.The thing was scary fast and fucking loud.
The head gasket went twice. The first time, it got harder to start over a period of 18 months where it got to the point we would have to tow it to start it. Got the dealer to fix it and it was hella expensive. Next time it went I was on the motorway in the midldle of the night, loose power steering pipe worked its way through the radiator, coolant deicided it liked the pressure it felt in the outside world. Got that fixed at an independant for less than half the price.
Lesson learned - learn how cars work and what you need to do to fix them.
The car itself, despite a whole lot of money spent on it for things that maybe should not have broken, was hard as fuck. It was capable of speeds over 130mph, but scrapped in the end as no one could tell us which clutch it took unless they took it apart - even the dealer - as the model had 2 - one cheap to do, one very expensive. Another problem it had in the end was if it had been driven hard it could cut out and take a while to start again. I figured that could be an expensive problem and as the car was starting to rust, scrapped it.
I must have put about 70K miles on that car. It may have been a bit of a waggon, but when one has a car, one attracts car slags.
After the Vega I got a 72 Pinto wagon that car was best for getting laid in.
Dfg's 2nd car.
Dfg giving some old friends a ride in his present car.
The first car I drove was a Fiat Punto but that was my parents car.
I've never owned a car yet though.
Great car when we got it, shit car by the time it passed to me.
Thanks, mom.
86 Wagoneer was the first one I bought.
Now bring on the insults!!!
Yep.
Lol I remember reading that.
My 1st car was a 67 mini. (Yes! Similar to Mr Beans) 850cc of neck snapping performance with a low gloss red oxide custom paint job. Then I stepped up to a 58 dodge desoto with a 440 transplant. From there a mopar freak was born.
