Avoid me!
1987 Chevy Celebrity Wagon with the third row, flip-up bench seat that faced the windshield. My dad got it an auto auction for my 17th birthday.
Learned to drive in an '85 Ford Escort Wagon (Dad's car) and '83 Oldsmobile Cutlass Cruiser Wagon that had a 20lb bag car phone (Mom's car.) My family really like those family trucksters!
Took my date to the senior prom in a 1988 Plymouth Reliant/K-Car and thought I was the Monopoly man.

This was my 2nd car...
1987 Firebird Formula that I had in 1990.. My senior year of high school.. I remember getting hassled all the time for driving "daddy's car", but it was mine. We have a salvage yard, bought it wrecked and fixed it. It was a panty dropper for sure

You are nearly me, but I have you by a year.
1968 Royal Maroon, Black Vinyl top. This is close to what it looked like, after I was done fixing it up. Didn't have the white highlights. It had started with a paint job close to this (but not nearly as nice). I, too, still have it. Sitting in my garage waiting for "someday". These things are always a time/money problem. Back then I had the time to put into it, but the money was brutal. I have the money now, but the time is non-existent. Someday I'd like to put it all back together again and take her for a spin.
Family had/has a long history with Mustangs of that era. My mom is getting her '67 put back together now. That will be fun once its back.

1967 Chevy Impala
My grandmother died in 1987. I inherited the car and it had about 20k miles on it. It got about 8 mpg city and 11 on the highway. I sold it for scrap like 5 years later.

I loved this car. Never changed the oil and it got like 40 mpg. Drove it everywhere. It was a 5 speed so naturally I killed the clutch early on.loser blue, I knew what that was gonna be before I even clicked.
My dad bought this exact same piece of crap a few years ago to schlep himself around in a few times a week

Yes, but I had to take them down because I kept running into people.

1978 Chrysler Lebaron
Looked just like that picture except it was light blue. Whitewall tires and everything.
I got it from my parents in 1997 as a senior in high school. I hated it when they gave it to me (ah, teen expectations). But learned to appreciate it. It was a beast. And it was 19 years old but only had 42,000 original miles on it. Pristine. Some old lady literally drove it back and forth to the grocery store and church. Ran like a dream. Drove it 10 hours to Mississippi in college for a summer internship.
Had it for 4 or 5 years and the only thing I did to it was oil, tune ups, and replaced the starter. On a 19+ year old car. Pretty cool.

My actual first car I drove consistently was a 1986 Lebaron, looked almost like this one. John Voight did not own it before me. This was my parents "2nd car", one they didn't drive much so I took it when I could. Took my prom date in 1991 in this.

Totally forgot. First time I ever went to get gas, I couldn't find the gas cap. Yes, it was just like this scene. I tried the license plate, but it wouldn't budge. I was so embarrassed I finally drove away to some empty parking lot to figure it out. It was under the license plate, but I was pulling up rather than down.
