My first car was a 1950 Ford. It was almost all there. No floorboards, you could literally see the road going past. Sat on a milk can.
2 nd car was a 1961 Morris Oxford. Painted British Racing Green. Nice car, fast. Was way faster after I put the Austin Healy motor in it.
Never owned or drove a Corvair.
My buddy had a '58 Chev that was an auto matic 283, he changed it to a 4 spd standard 348 and 2x 4bbls progressive linkage. Now that was a fast car.
The first car I ever drove was a 1947 Plymouth. I stole (took it without the owners' permission) it from our driveway while Mum & Dad were out of town getting drunk at a Grey Cup party. I did that twice. I was in my 40s when I fessed up to Dad. He admitted that he figured it was me, but he didn't care because the car was back where it was supposed to be (backed in the driveway) and with more gas in it than when he parked it.
