Not the first car I owned, but the first one i paid for myself was my 2001 Trans Am below... bought it with bolt-ons and well, the rest is history...

1989 Geo Metro (LSi)

It had 3 cylinders of 55 horsepower fury. It weighed about 1,800 lbs. It would get it on !!! I got more speeding tix in it than any vehicle since.

And, maybe more ASS.

1978 nova 350 police car motor mickey thompson m-50's in the rear aluminum slots all the way around. got in alot of trouble with it at school and mcdonalds lol. Ahh those were the days lol.
Just asked the lady what her first one was and it was a shocker
1981 Toyota pickup with 12" lift 35" tires and a 400 sbc in it lol. Said she got rid of it cause she kept blowing the rear out of it lol. Course now she drives an 06 Dodge 1/2 tom shortbed with a body lift and 35's

76 nova here. Put a starter in a Lincoln for these people and they gave me the car for payment. Straight 6. Put a 350 in and traded it for an 80 Grand Prix.
