Your first car?

As motorcycles and automobiles have always been my passion, I decided to build the car. This passion has lead to a small collection of 70's muscle cars and more motorcycles than my wife has shoes. As a matter of fact, I still own my first motorcycle, which is a 1977 Harley FLH. As stock and unmolested as the day I rode it home. This photo was taken at a show in Indy two years ago.

Tony: If my David ever saw your collection, you'd need a squeegee to clean up his drool off the floor!!! Hot rods and motorcycles..... almost better than sex to him!! (at least he'd BETTER say "almost"!!!!)

My other first. Alright, stock with the exception of the exhaust and the S&S carb. Otherwise, its all there. For the aficionado's, I have the original windshield, fairing, tour pack and backrest on a shelf. I rode this bike yesterday! No trailer queens in my garage.

In 1973 I moved down to Phoenix where a bunch of my friends had just moved. Bought a 1959 Chrysler Windsor(a cheap Imperial) for $140. It had a push button transmission and the biggest fins of any car ever made. We could fit myself , my six roomies, and still have room for two big dogs. Drove it all over the southwest that winter. They don't make em like that anymore.

My first car was a 1983 Ford Fullsize Bronco with a rebuilt 351! The top came off, had good tires with a small lift kit-but multi-colored fenders! My friends called it "The Beast", and that she was. I ran the engine out of water (oops?). Chicks really digged it though!

My first car I owned was a Spanish version of the MG1300 - known in Spain as the MG Authi. It was a bit bigger than a Mini, and had some nice appointments on the inside - like a real wood dashboard. It also had lots of mechanical problems.... but it was a fun car to drive...

After college and grad school I bought my very own car in the mid '80's... a beautiful navy blue Firebird. Loved that car but sold it when it became too difficult to put a carseat with baby in the backseat! Someday!!

Now now... It was definitely a Monte Carlo, sweetie pie. The Olds Cutlass Supreme Brougham was my mama's car

I have a pic of Big Blue somewhere... I'd have to dig back through 16 years (gasp) of photos, but it was the bomb at the time.

AND if I had it now, you'd DEFINITELY have to keep an eye out for me, 'cuz after 'Training Day', oh honey... I'd trick that bitch out... after seeing Alonzo's car, THAT made me want to just... just... just...

have my Carlo back...
