1966 Nova 2 door sedan. 6 cylinder, 3 speed. It was painted 69 Camaro Hugger Orange. the wheel wells and gas tank were painted latex house white (of course there were air shocks cranked way up so that everyone could see...including the cops...doh). It was the first of five 66-67 Novas I've owned over the years

I'm having flashbacks!!!!:eek::D..CR
 
I didn't own a car in high school. Drove dads ****. 81 Toyota two wheel drive diesel truck and an 84 Ford escort.
 
1977 toyota corolla, then a 68 bel air wagon (283 glide party wagon!), then a 78 pontiac lemans with a 400sbc in it
 
Got paroled from High School in 74, started with a 68 Barracuda coupe 318, then a 69 Road Runner 383 4 spd, then my senior year got a 71 Dodge Demon 340 auto neat car it was.
 
It was in the seventies, had a 1968 Chev 3/4 ton pickup, put in a 350, painted the engine white, hauled horses on the weekends. speakers across the back dash, lots of cheap yellow fog lights. and yes it often had a stock rack on it.
 
I graduated in 95 only 15 yrs ago but I drove a 1967 mustang fastback and I still have it and sometimes a 1981 silverado which I also still have
 
I drove a black 59 Silver Hawk Studebaker AKA the Bat mobile. The interior was red and black. The dash lights were green. Best part was the front seats dropped all the way back. The girls loved it.
 
A '50 Chevy Coupe then a '66 Buick Skylark four door hardtop (never rolled the windows up:D), traded the Buick for a '71 GMC pickup and then near the end of my senior year traded that in on the ONLY new vehicle I've ever owned.....1976 Chevy PU:)
On a side note, I was in the middle of a deal to trade the GMC on a '71 Buick GS 455 4-speed when my Dad pointed out to me that I had no job and if I expected him to co-sign I'd best invest in something like a truck that I could use to make a little money with or that he could use if I couldn't pay for it:(..........Thanks to him I lived to get married and have a daughter whom I took to a friends house for a birthday party when she was about 6 or 7 years old. We pulled up in the '57 Buick Special I had at the time and her friend's Dad said 'nice car, I have and old Buick that hasn't been on the road since about 1978'. He throws open a garage door and I immediately recognize the 455 GS :eek:........he had bought it about a week after my Dad talked me out of it. He still has it and I still pester him to let me have it:D
 
graduated in 1998 with a 65 ford short bed; mom and dad payed $450 for it when i was 14 restored and drove it when i was 16 mom used to say it never sat still long enough to take a picture of it. it was painted kindof a brownish marron but i told everyone that there was more blood than paint on that truck
 
I "HAD" to drive a 1927 T-BUCKET that my dad built for me as a freshman and graduated from High School in 1972 driving a 1969 Shelby Gt 500 w/a factory drag pack that I bought myself for $2800.00 ( wish I had it now)
 
First there was a '49 Chevy 3100, then a '54 Buick Super, then a '55 Chevy Nomad and last but not least, a '56 Chevy wagon with a 394 Olds and Hydro.
