My first car was a project car that my dad was supposed to help me with. I was 14 and it was 1974. A 1950 Ford sedan with a Flat Head V8 and he never lifted a finger on it.
The first car I had that ran was in 1976 and it was a 1966 Ford Mustang Fastback.

Hyundai excel.

Cheap little runner. Didn't need much maintenance - It ran for 120,000 miles with the oil changed 3x. Still ran fine when I sold it.

Had a couple of little interesting episodes though. It had lap seat belts in the back. One day, it fell out when the door was closed, and the loose belt got wrapped around a rear wheel. About 100 yards down from the house the car starts slowing down and stops. When the accelerator was let go, the car suddently starts accelerating backwards.
