It would apear to me that something hapened between the 94 stang and the windstar <br /> Same thing hapened to me between a 66 stang and a 71 LTD four door (boat)

'63 Cadillac Sedan DeVille. Driver's window was stuck down. I remember taking a girl on a date while it was raining; I had a towel hanging over the door to keep some of the rain from getting to me . . .

Yep, 3 somethings happened. Most days it was a good trade off, but I sure miss those cars.

Re: What was your first car?

My 1st bike was a 1974 49cc yamaha FS1E at 16. It's all we can ride over here at that age. It did 57mph and blew up every 2nd week.<br /><br />My 1st car was a 1982 Lada 1500 Combi...

<br /><br />I did under a mile in it,was rammed by an xj6 doing about 40mph more than me, it rolled 7 times, undid my racing harness and climbed out of the windscreen (the 1st time I drove a car of any description I entered a banger race...)

My first driver was a 1958 VW Beetle, but the first one I owned was a 1966 Simca 1000. Paid a cool hundred bucks for it. Blowby was so bad the dipstick would pop out under acceleration.<br /><br />Jinx

My first car was a brand new 89 Dodge Daytona Shelby Turbo. I had come back from 2 years overseas, had some money, and had liked the car after driving a buddies'. It was the only brand new car I have ever owned, the rest have been used.
