Re: Your first ride?

I also had a blue 1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88 with a huge dent in the back passenger door so it couldn't open. The hood and roof were rusted and like Matty's the liner on the sealing was coming off and yellow foam dust would fly ever where. The only good thing about that car was the Kenwood "pullout" CD player I put in it.


My brother and I also shared a 1977 Saab for a little while. That poor car was in great shape until my brother crashed it into the guard rail getting off the FRWY in the rain. After that there was a HUGE dent in the front and the radiator was cracked so you always had to make sure you had at least a gallon of water in the back to poor into it when it would start overheating. Which it would do about ever 30 miles.


I must say though that driving all those crappy cars growing up really helped me appreciate the last few cars I’ve owned.
