In the 90's I saw one in California that had a license plate of 'UNSAFE'.Originally posted by Harlan Huckleby View Post
my bro & I got a 1962 covair for $350 in high school. The "Unsafe at any Speed" car.
My first car was an 87 Hyundai Excel POS. Despite Upnorth's statement, this car did not become a part of me.Last edited by MadScientist; 11-23-2011, 01:40 PM.2025 Ratpickers champion.

1970 Chevy Impala. Was my great grandmothers but she drove it like 50 miles/yr and when she couldn't drive anymore she sold it to me for $1. Thing burned oil like a MF'er. Kept a case of oil in the trunk as when I'd drive the 40 miles to Milwaukee, it would have gone through a quart of oil.
All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!

My first car was a 2000 Mustang V6 Automatic, Hunter Green. I miss that car.
A few years later I fixed up a 1969 Chevelle. I put a 454 big block in it. I repainted it. It was red with black racing stripes and had black interior. I sold it last year when we had our first child.

That just means you didn't crash it right. I learned to drive on a 1987 Camaro Berlinetta5458849912_45745a84ca.jpg that exploded, but my first car was a 1964 Beetle. I got it and then the front half of the engine blew, and then the back half blew and left me stranded on the freeway, and then I sold it and the U joint went a week later.Originally posted by MadScientist View PostIn the 90's I saw one in California that had a license plate of 'UNSAFE'.

Audi Fox.....had the same problem with front struts. Almost killed off half the Roark brothers and cousins one night driving home from Judges/RCs. Next day struts went and rammed into curb because couldn't control steering. Night before flying up I-43 at 2 am with a car full of people.Originally posted by digitaldean View Post
First car was a white Datsun B-210 (similar to this one) that I got after I graduated from high school. Unfortunately, the struts/front suspension didn't last and it wasn't safe to drive. ABSOLUTE BLAST to drive for a small car.

Rolled and totalled in a blizzard outside of Laramie, Wyoming when rushing home from a rock-climbing road-trip to see my GF.
