My dad sold his jon boat and bout me a 76 monza from my uncle for $600, I had to pay the insurance, gas, and tires and maintenance. It was a pea green / baby poop green and wouldn't get out of it own way. I think it would run 72 mph (ish).

Well, since I am a hoarder, I still have most of the cars I ever had. My first ride was a 1963 Econoline van that my Dad handed down to me in '75. Being a painter in the Navy, he tricked out the paint on it. This pic was taken a few nonths ago. Still have it.

Holden HQ Kingswood. Like this but with patches and dents and both front quarters in primer. Aerial was a coat hanger bent into the shape of Australia. Big containers of water in the back to fill it up every day. Funny thing was I had friends with stupidly nice cars and they were always wanting to drive mine.

I did this too, even with my dad taking 2/3rds of my takehome pay as "contributions to the household.'

Dang...2/3rds? Wow.
