What was your First Car?

A while back a fellow Pelicanhead asked a group "Hey, what was your first car?". And the responses were great so I thought I'd ask it here.

I'll go first.

1969 Fiat 124 Sport Coupe, $400.00, that was a rust-bucket.
PO threw in a '68 124 rolling shell w/tranny for parts. We drove the '69 home (I use the term "drove" loosely) and one summer and 1 and a half gallons of bondo later, it emerged presentable and after a lot of engine debugging ran pretty good. All things considered. It had the DOHC 4cyl w/ dual Webers and a 5 speed from the parts car. Never knew if the Weber setup was factory. I was 15/16 yrs old and was completely stoked to have "my own ride". I used to have a decent photo but can't find it now. I'll try to dig it up. If you have pics of yours, lets see 'em.

Your turn.
