Nope. This all happened in Montgomery Alabama. The dealer was Southern Motors.

My dad gave me an interest free loan to buy my first car, a $600 1960 VW bug. He paid for the insurance until I turned 18. I paid for 100% of all expenses for my cars. I can remember buying a set of recap tires for the bug. A set of 4 mounted and balanced was $30. The car would only go 70 if there was a tail wind.

I never drove one of my parents cars until I was over 21 and needed a large trunk for some project.

I did all my own maintenance because I was cheap.

I was hired for my 1st job when I was in 11th grade. I was sitting in class and the professional photographer the school used to shoot group photos for the year book asked me if I wanted a job. I was hired that afternoon. Since 1970 I have only had four working days with no job.
