Was your first car Made in the USA?
If so, odds are good that you can see sales info for it here:

+1 Still have my 1972 Thunderturd with the 429. Built in the Chicago plant and the same chassis as the Lincoln Mk5.
First car and all American, a 1959 Ford Galaxie 500... just like the car Ronald Reagan drove in the movie 'The Killers'. |

My dad said that when I got enough money to buy a car I could have 1. It was quite an incentive. 6months later I was bidding on a car and had 750 bucks in hand, no 1 else wanted it. Had a bent fender and bumper. Fixed that and at the ripe old age of 14, I was dating hot chicks and driving with the top down
