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.
 
1990 Mercedes Benz 300E, barely driven when I recieved it. Perfect condition. All leather interior...can't believe how many things you can make automatic in a car 🙂
 
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.
 
1995 Camry. Got it with about 218,000, stopped driving it last month after it started going out (223,500 miles).
 
1988 Honda Prelude Si4WS. Got it with 99,000 miles and has 240,000 miles on it now. Its now my back up car incase the 3000GT breaks down. 😀
 
5spd mustang gt
