What was your first car?

1969 caprice. Bought for $10 in 77. Engine was in pieces in the trunk except for block, crank, pistons/rods. It had sat so long that way, and water had gotten in the bores, that there were 1/8" pits in the cylinder bores, and the piston crowns were corroded so bad by the time they were clean I'd taken half the thickness away! Ran a glaze breaker in the bores, cleaned the pistons. cleaned the crank with emery cloth, put it together and ran it for almost 2 years before I sold it for what I had in it.
